“…Overexpression of Gun4 in plants causes an aberrant accumulation of Chl, accompanied by elevated steady state levels of P IX and MgP porphyrins (19). In the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, overexpression of Gun4 also increases Chl content per cell (38), whereas a C. reinhardtii strain possessing a low Gun4 content has reduced both Chl and P IX levels (15,20). Only after the complete elimination of Gun4 do cyanobacteria, algae, and plants accumulate aberrant concentrations of P IX (14,20,39).…”
