Identification of a receptor for protein import into chloroplasts and its localization to envelope contact zones

An anti-idiotypic antibody approach was used to identify an integral membrane protein of the chloroplast envelope as a receptor for protein import into the chloroplast stroma. The import receptor is found in contact sites between the outer and inner membrane of the chloroplast envelope.
