Maturase K forms a plastidial splicing complex with a neofunctionalized branching enzyme

Yuanyuan Liang, Yang Gao, Andrea Fontana, Melanie R. Abt, Adam P. Gicgier, Muriel Gehring, Chun Liu, Mayank Sharma, Reimo Zoschke, Samuel C. Zeeman, Barbara Pfister

The paper identifies MKIP1 as a plastid-localized protein that interacts with MatK to facilitate chloroplast intron splicing, showing functional divergence from canonical branching enzymes.
