Comment The urf-rmc gene is completely homologous to the normal atp6 gene from at least position -426 in the 5' flanking region to position +511 downstream from the initiation codon ATG. However, the following downstream sequence shows no homology with the normal rice atp6 gene, or any other reported sequence. Introduction of the restorer of fertility gene altered transcription of the urf-rmc gene but not the atp6 gene, indicating participation of the chimeric gene in the expression of cytoplasmic male sterility trait (CMS). Southern blot analysis showed that the urf-rmc gene was generated by an intramolecular recombination event in mitochondrial DNA, and the homologous recombination point between the atp6 gene and the opposite ancestral sequence was identified as 5'-TTCCCTC-3'.
Cytoplasm induced sterility. Fertility is restored by Rf1 and the restoration is gametophytically determined. A chimeric atp6 gene (urf-rmc) is found unique in cms-bo cytoplasm. Introduction of the restorer fertility gene alters the urf-rmc gene transcription, indicating the participation of the chimeric gene in the expression of CMS. (Imported from Gene GR:0060146)
