| Abstract | RNA splicing is an essential post-transcriptional regulation in plant mitochondria and chloroplasts. As the mechanism of RNA splicing remains obscure, identification and functional elucidation of new splicing factors are necessary. Through a characterization of two maize mutants, we cloned Empty pericarp 24 (Emp24) and Empty pericarp 25 (Emp25). Both Emp24 and Emp25 encode mitochondrion-targeted P-type PPR proteins. EMP24 is required for the splicing of nad4 introns 1 and 3, which was reported (Ren Z. et al., 2019), and EMP25 functions in the splicing of nad5 introns 1, 2, and 3. Absence of either Nad4 or Nad5 proteins blocks the assembly of mitochondrial complex I, resulting in the formation of a sub-sized complex I of similar size in both mutants. Mass spectrometry identification revealed that the subcomplexes in both mutants lack an identical set of proteins of complex I. These results indicate that EMP24 and EMP25 function in the splicing of nad4 and nad5 introns, respectively, and are essential to maize kernel development. The identification of the subcomplexes provides genetic and molecular insights into the modular complex I assembly pathway in maize. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
