ALBINA 4 | Brief Description | OxaA/YidC-like membrane insertion protein |
| TAIR Computational Description | OxaA/YidC-like membrane insertion protein;(source:Araport11) |
| TAIR Curator Summary | Homologue of the Alb3/Oxa1/YidC family. ALB4 is almost identical to the Alb3/Oxa1/YidC domain of the previously described 110 kDa inner envelope protein ARTEMIS. However, ALB4 is expressed as a separate 55 kDa protein and is located in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts. Analysis of a T-DNA insertion line with a reduced level of Alb4 revealed chloroplasts with an altered ultrastructure. Mutant plastids are larger, more spherical in appearance and the grana stacks within the mutant lines are less appressed than in the wild-type chloroplasts. ALB4 is required for proper chloroplast biogenesis. The mRNA is cell-to-cell mobile. |
