| Research Abstract |
We have analyzed the Mg^<2+> transport function of plant chloroplast protein molecules in this study. Plant proteins were expressed in Escherichia coli, and purified using an appropriate detergent. Isolated AtMRS2-10 from Arabidopsis thaliana was reconstituted into liposomes, and Mg^<2+> transport activity into liposomes was assayed using a fluorescent dye and with atomic absorption spectroscopy. This system allows first measurement of Mg^<2+> transport activity of plant protein.
