NCBI Protein Information
plastid division1
NCBI Summary
An integral outer envelope membrane protein (as its homolog PDV2), component of the plastid division machinery. Similar to ARC5, PDV1 localized to a discontinuous ring at the division site in wild-type plants. PDV1 and PDV2 are required for localization of ARC5 at the chloroplast division site. Topological analysis showed that the large N-terminal region of PDV1 upstream of the transmembrane helix bearing a putative coiled-coil domain is exposed to the cytosol. Mutation of the conserved PDV1 C-terminal Gly residue did not block PDV1 insertion into the outer envelope membrane but did abolish its localization to the division site.
