In the ''Zea mays'' plastid, PPR10 binds specifically to the ssRNA oligonucleotides | In the ''Zea mays'' plastid, PPR10 binds specifically to the ssRNA oligonucleotides <scene name='69/696301/Atph/1'>atpH</scene> (17 nucleotides: 5'-GUAUUCUUUAAUUAUUUC-3') and spaJ (18 nucleotides: 5'-GUAUUCUUUAAUUAUUUC-3') where it has been shown to prevent degradation of sequences both upstream and downstream of its binding sites. In addition to stabilizing these RNA sequences, PPR10 increases the rate at which they are translated.<ref name = "translation"/> | ||
