High impact information on ndhF

• The editing efficiencies of both the corresponding rpoB and ndhF editing sites in the endogenous genes' transcripts and in several other genes' transcripts were reduced in the chloroplast transgenic plants [1].
• Chloroplasts regulate leaf senescence: delayed senescence in transgenic ndhF-defective tobacco [2].
• We report that transgenic tobacco (DeltandhF), with the plastid ndhF gene knocked-out, shows low levels of the plastid Ndh complex, homologous to mitochondrial complex I, and more than a 30-day-delay in leaf senescence with respect to wt [2].
• Surprisingly, U-containing ndhF transgene transcripts reduced endogenous ndhF transcript editing to the same degree as a C-containing transgene transcript [3].
• Ninety extra nucleotide in ndhF gene of tobacco chloroplast DNA: a summary of revisions to the 1986 genome sequence [4].

Biological context of ndhF

• The BamHI-XbaI fragment also contains the gene for subunit 5 of NADH dehydrogenase (ndhF) and two unidentified open reading frames (ORFx and ORF48) [5].
• Organization and nucleotide sequence of the broad bean chloroplast genes trnL-UAG, ndhF and two unidentified open reading frames [5].

Other interactions of ndhF

• The loci sequenced were trnL intron and trnL-F spacer, trnS-G spacer and two genes, ndhF and matK [6].
