TAIR Curator Summary | Metalloprotease that functions in thylakoid membrane biogenesis. Involved in the repair of PSII following damaged incurred during photoinhibition. Forms a complex with VAR1. Mutants show a variegated phenotype, which decreases during development. Transcript and protein levels increase with light intensity. In plsp1-1 mutant plastids, the nonmature form of the protein localizes in the membrane. |
