Translocase of chloroplast 34 homolog, chloroplastic

UniProtKB accession:  A8HYJ1

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  GTPase involved in protein precursor import into chloroplasts. Seems to recognize chloroplast-destined precursor proteins and regulate their presentation to the translocation channel through GTP hydrolysis (By similarity). Functions as an essential component of the outer chloroplast membrane translocon (TOC) complex, which, in turn, catalyzes the import of nucleus-encoded precursor polypeptides from the cytoplasm to the chloroplast (PubMed:23167510).
