  • Title: Targeting of a foreign protein to chloroplasts by fusion to the transit peptide from the small subunit of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase.
    Author: Van den Broeck G, Timko MP, Kausch AP, Cashmore AR, Van Montagu M, Herrera-Estrella L.
    Journal: Nature; ; 313(6001):358-63. PubMed ID: 3969146.
    Abstract:
    Chimaeric genes can be constructed which fuse the transit peptide of a small subunit of the chloroplast-located ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase with a bacterial protein. The fusion protein is translocated into chloroplasts and cleaved in a similar way to the small subunit polypeptide precursor.
