Abstract:
How mitochondrial introns are spliced is a fundamental question in plant biology. Through characterization of a dek46 mutant and in vitro splicing analyses, this study demonstrates that a single C‐to‐U editing event in the nad7 introns 3 and 4 domain 5 is critical to the intron splicing and kernel development of maize, possibly through maintaining the intron in a catalytic configuration. This study suggests the important role of intron editing to mitochondrial intron splicing.
