physiological function | a mutant lacking CtpA retains all D1 protein in precursor form, confirming that CtpA is solely responsible for processing. A knockout Ctpa mutant is lethal under normal growth conditions but is viable with sucrose under low-light conditions. Viable plants show deficiencies in PSII and thylakoid stacking. The mutant retains both monomer and dimer forms of the PSII complexes that, although nonfunctional, contain both the core and extrinsic subunits. This mutant is also essentially devoid of PSII supercomplexes. A knock-down mutant expressing about 2% wild-type level of CtpA shows normal growth under low light but is stunted and accumulats D1 protein precursor under high light | Arabidopsis thaliana |
