Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information 4 insertion allels (m1-m4) of camouflage1 (cf1) mutant, mutant develops nonclonal, yellow-green sectors in leaves based on bundle sheath cell-specific death, yellow mutant regions show reduced levels of chlorophyll a + b, and total carotenoids, reduced photosynthesis and stomatal conductance compared to wild type and green regions of the mutant, constant light suppresses the cf1 sector formation, sectors only form during a limited time of leaf development, underlying is a decreased enzyme activity and increased levels of the substrate in green and yellow regions, yellow regions show an additional reduction in catalase activity Zea mays
