Function
SR43C_ARATH Component of the chloroplast signal recognition particle pathway. Required for post-translational targeting of proteins into the tylakoid membrane but seems to be dispensable for co-translational targeting with a translating ribosome present. May be able to function independently of cpFTSY and FFC/cpSRP54 in targeting LHCPs to the thylakoids. Acts as a highly specific chaperone for LHCPs, preventing aggregation and being able to dissolve aggregates.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
