plasmid vector pGreenII-0029 including the gene for the green fluorescent protein fused with full-length or truncated chlorophyllide a oxygenase, plasmid with fusion enzyme is then transformed into Agrobacterium tumefaciens (strain GV2260) by electroporation, wild-type Arabidopsis and chlorina1-1 mutant are transformed by vacuum infiltration | Arabidopsis thaliana |
Protein Variants | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
E136V | amino acid mutation within A-domain, increased stability of the fusion enzyme, K157R alone without stability effect, deletions from Q97 up to or beyond H106 result in stability signal equivalent to a lack of the entire A-domain | Arabidopsis thaliana |
additional information | serial deletions in the A-domain identify the amino acid sequence Q97-DLLTIMIL-H106 that is essential for the regulation of the protein stability, this sequence introduced into mutant chlorina1-1 fusion enzyme lacking the entire A-domain re-enables the regulation of the enzyme, the other part of the A-domain is necessary to confer chlrorophyll-b dependency of the degradation process | Arabidopsis thaliana |
