Fate of nad5 RNA Editing in Arabidopsis and P. patens Mutants Transformed with Various PPR Genes. PPR proteins from P. patens and from angiosperms (Arabidopsis and macadamia) that mediate the same RNA editing change are not always functionally equivalent. Transgenic expression of PPR79 from P. patens restored RNA editing in the P. patens ppr79 and Arabidopsis cwm1 mutants, but CWM1 did not when expressed in P. patens. A macadamia CWM1-like protein can replace both PPR79 and CWM1. (Figure drawn by P.A.S. and B. Oldenkott.)
