Expression of wild-type or mutated TAP-Toc159GM remedies the deficiency of ppi2 for Rubisco and chlorophyll a/b-binding protein. Western blot analysis using antibodies as indicated of 10, 20, and 40 μg of total protein of wild-type A. thaliana (ecotype Wassilewskija), ppi2 (toc159) mutant plants as well as ppi2 plants transformed with TAP-Toc159GM WT or K868R. For TAP-Toc159GM K868R:ppi2 plants of two different transgenic lines (B16) and (B20) were analyzed. Western blotting against actin was used to monitor gel loading.
