RIP-Seq analysis of non-PPR chloroplast editing factors reveals broad RNA interactions and enrichment of less efficiently translated RNAs by OZ1 and ORRM1 complexes.

C-to-U RNA editing in angiosperm chloroplasts requires a large suite of proteins bound together in the editosome. The editosome is comprised of PPR proteins, RIP/MORFs, OZ proteins, and ORRM proteins that physically interact in high molecular weight complexes. The specific functions of non-PPR editing factors in the editosome are unclear, however, specific subsets of editing sites are affected by absence of non-PPR editing factors.
