Harnessing <i>S. cerevisiae</i> to advance the engineering of pentatricopeptide repeat proteins
Heterologous expression systems have been instrumental in furthering our understanding of plant RNA editing proteins. In this commentary, we discuss how the establishment of yeast as a model for studying plant RNA editing by Ramanathan et al. could advance the engineering of pentatricopeptide repeat proteins, and how in return pentatricopeptide repeat proteins might be used to advance yeast engineering.
