| Abstract | The Arabidopsis var2 variegation mutant defines a nuclear gene for a chloroplast FtsH metalloprotease. Leaf variegation is expressed only in homozygous recessive plants. The cells in the green leaf sectors of this mutant contain morphologically normal chloroplasts, whereas cells in the white sectors contain abnormal plastids lacking organized lamellar structures. var2 mutants are hypersusceptible to photoinhibition, and VAR2 degrades unassembled polypeptides and is involved in the D1 repair cycle of photosystem II, likely by affecting turnover of the photodamaged D1 polypeptide. A second-site suppressor screen of var2 yielded a normal-appearing, nonvariegated line. Map-based cloning revealed that the suppression of variegation in this line is due to a splice site mutation in ClpC2, a chloroplast Hsp100 chaperone, that results in sharply reduced ClpC2 protein accumulation. Isolation of clpC2 single mutants showed that clpC2 is epistatic to var2, and that a lack of ClpC2 does not markedly alter the composition of the thylakoid membrane. Suppression by clpC2 is not allele-specific. Our results suggest that clpC2 is a suppressor of thylakoid biogenesis and maintenance and that ClpC2 might act by accelerating photooxidative stress. Arabidopsis has two ClpC genes (ClpC1 and ClpC2), and mutants with down-regulated expression of both genes have a phenotype different from clpC2, suggesting that ClpC1 and ClpC2 act synergistically and/or that they are only partially redundant. The isolation of a clpC2 mutant represents an important advance in the generation of tools to understand Hsp100 function and insight into the mechanisms of protein quality control in plants. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
