FIGURE 10.

Scatter plot comparing the relative transcript abundances for mRNAs of the vipp1 mutant to those in the trans-complemented vipp1 mutant strain. Transcripts for psaA and psaB were specifically higher in the trans-complemented vipp1 strain, which also had enhanced mRNA levels for the vipp1 (sll0617) gene from Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Transcript levels for chlL were also more abundant in the trans-complemented strain, but nearly all other transcripts were unchanged. The gray lines indicate 2-fold changes in transcript levels.
