Translation of partially overlapping psbD-psbC mRNAs in chloroplasts: the role of 5′-processing and translational coupling

The chloroplast psbD and psbC genes encode the D2 and CP43 proteins of the photosystem II complex, and they are generally cotranscribed. We report studies on the basic translation process of tobacco psbD-psbC mRNAs using an in vitro translation system from tobacco chloroplasts. The primary transcrip...
