1 We identified point mutations in two mutants that inactivate the CAO gene responsible for chlorophyll a to chlorophyll b conversion. chlorophyll a uncharacterized protein Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
2 When the CAO mutation was placed in a yellow-in-the-dark background (yid-BF3), in which chlorophyll a synthesis remains limited in dim light, accumulation of the major LHCIIs and of most LHCIs was markedly reduced, indicating that sustained synthesis of chlorophyll a is required to preserve the proteolytic resistance of antenna proteins. chlorophyll a uncharacterized protein Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
