Multiple ubiquitin E3 ligase genes antagonistically regulate chloroplast-associated protein degradation.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The chloroplast is the most prominent member of a diverse group of plant organelles called the plastids, and it is characterized by its vital role in photosynthesis.1,2,3 Most of the ∼3,000 different proteins in chloroplasts are synthesized in the cytosol in precursor (preprotein) form, each with a cleavable transit peptide.4,5,6,7,8 Preproteins are imported via translocons in the outer and inner envelope membranes of the chloroplast, termed TOC and TIC, respectively.9,10,11,12,13 Discovery of the chloroplast-localized ubiquitin E3 ligase SU
