Editing of Chloroplast rps14 by PPR Editing Factor EMB2261 Is Essential for Arabidopsis Development

RNA editing in plastids is known to be required for embryogenesis, but no single editing event had been shown to be essential. We show that the emb2261-2 mutation is lethal through a failure to express an editing factor that specifically recognizes the rps14-2 site. EMB2261 was predicted to bind the...
