Functional narrative |
GTPase involved in protein precursor import into chloroplasts. Seems to recognize chloroplast-destined precursor proteins and regulate their presentation to the translocation channel through GTP hydrolysis. Required for chloroplast biogenesis. Probably specialized in the import of nuclear encoded photosynthetic preproteins from the cytoplasm to the chloroplast.

| Detection methods:
- Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, far-UV (298 K; pH: 8; )

| Comments:The A-domain was shown experimentally to be disordered under non-denaturing conditions, and underwent structural changes characteristic of IDPs at extremes of temperature and pH. Furthermore, in the presence of 50% TFE, the A-domain gained considerable structure.
