FIGURE 2.

Structure of the At5g13270 locus and the predicted RARE1 protein. The locations of T-DNA insertions associated with decreased accD C794 editing are indicated. The 335-nt region of At5g13270 RNA targeted by VIGS is delimited by facing arrows. Depicted below the gene model is the modular organization of the predicted RARE1 protein. Starting at residue 47, five tandem PLS blocks (I–V), of either 101 or 102 residues are shown followed by the E, E+, and DYW domains (Lurin et al. 2004). RARE1 motif coordinates are defined in Supplemental Figure S2. The P, L, and S forms of the PPR motifs are indicated left to right by three different shadings of gray boxes. Figure is drawn to scale.
