High impact information on rpoC2

  • Slipped-strand mispairing in a plastid gene: rpoC2 in grasses (Poaceae) [1].
  • DNA sequence analysis of 11 species from all five subfamilies within the grass family demonstrates that the extra sequence in the coding region of rpoC2 is a repetitive array that exhibits more than a twofold increase in nucleotide substitution, as well as a large number of insertion/deletion events, relative to the adjacent flanking sequences [1].
  • Rice chloroplast RNA polymerase genes: the absence of an intron in rpoC1 and the presence of an extra sequence in rpoC2 [2].
  • Specific probes for the detection of (1) intron loss in the rpoC1 gene, (2) insertional sequence gain in rpoC2, (3) deletion of ORF2280 in the inverted repeats, (4) non-reciprocal translocation of rpl23, and (5) rearrangements of ORF512, were hybridized to cpDNAs of lily, onion, spiderwort, two turf grasses, and wheat [3].
