PAC pale cress protein (PAC) [Arabidopsis thaliana (thale cress)] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: PAC
Official Full Name: pale cress protein (PAC)
Primary source: TAIR:AT2G48120
Locus tag: AT2G48120
See related: Araport:AT2G48120
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype: Columbia)
Lineage: Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; eudicotyledons; Gunneridae; Pentapetalae; rosids; malvids; Brassicales; Brassicaceae; Camelineae; Arabidopsis
Also known as: F11L15.2; PALE CRESS
Summary: The pale cress (pac) mutant affects chloroplast and leaf development; mutants are ABA-deficient and accumulate lower levels of carotenoids and chlorophyll compared to wild type. PAC is probably involved in chloroplast mRNA maturation. Three alternative transcripts of this gene exist.
