A pentatricopeptide repeat-containing gene restores fertility to cytoplasmic male-sterile plants.
TL;DR: The isolation of a gene directly involved in the control of the expression of a cytoplasmic male sterility-encoding gene is reported, and the Petunia restorer of fertility gene product is a mitochondrially targeted protein that is almost entirely composed of 14 repeats of the 35-aa pentatricopeptide repeat motif.

RIP1, a member of an Arabidopsis protein family, interacts with the protein RARE1 and broadly affects RNA editing
Stéphane Bentolila,Wade P. Heller,Tao Sun,Arianne M. Babina,Giulia Friso,Klaas J. van Wijk,Maureen R. Hanson +6 more
TL;DR: The presence of RIP1 in a protein complex along with chloroplast editing factor RARE1 indicates that RIP1 is an important component of the RNA editing apparatus that acts on many chloropleft and mitochondrial C targets.

Comprehensive High-Resolution Analysis of the Role of an Arabidopsis Gene Family in RNA Editing
TL;DR: The use of a strand- and transcript-specific RNA-seq method (STS-PCRseq) to explore the effect of mutation or silencing of every RIP gene on plant organelle editing is reported, confirming RIP1 to be a major editing factor that controls the editing extent of 75% of the mitochondrial sites and 20% ofThe plastid C targets of editing.
An RNA recognition motif-containing protein is required for plastid RNA editing in Arabidopsis and maize
Tao Sun,Arnaud Germain,Ludovic Giloteaux,Kamel Hammani,Alice Barkan,Maureen R. Hanson,Stéphane Bentolila +6 more
TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis indicates that this protein belongs to a sub-family of RNA recognition-motif proteins predominantly predicted to be targeted to organelles and that are thus likely to play roles in organelle RNA metabolism, and suggests that other members of the ORRM family may likewise function in RNA editing.

A Zinc Finger Motif-Containing Protein Is Essential for Chloroplast RNA Editing
TL;DR: A member of the RanBP2 type zinc fingers (pFAM00641) protein family is identified that is required for editing of 14 sites in chloroplasts and affects editing efficiency of another 16 chloroplast C targets.
