isolation of mutants defective in subunits ChlH and ChlD. Mutants lack chlorophyll and show reduced levels of Mg-tetrapyrroles but increased levels of soluble heme. In the mutants, light induction of HSP70A is preserved, although Mg-protoporphyrin IX has been implicated in this induction |

Q94FT3 |
in wild-type cells, a shift from dark to light results in a transient reduction in heme levels, while the levels of Mg-protoporphyrin IX, its methyl ester, and protoporphyrin IX increase. Hemin feeding to cultures in the dark activates HSP70A |
