High impact information on ycf4

The chloroplast genes ycf3 and ycf4 from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii have been characterized [1].

Biological context of ycf4

The chloroplast ycf3 and ycf4 open reading frames of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii are required for the accumulation of the photosystem I complex [1].

Other interactions of ycf4

Transformants lacking ycf4 or ycf3 were unable to grow photoautotrophically and were deficient in photosystem I activity [1].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of ycf4

Using biolistic transformation, ycf4 and ycf3 were disrupted with a chloroplast selectable marker cassette [1].
