We have isolated an Arabidopsis thaliana cDNA encoding a highly hydrophobic membrane protein of 589 amino acids which contains 12 potential transmembrane helices and shows a high degree of similarity (43.5% identity, 66.2% similarity) to the ATP/ADP translocase of the Gram-negative bacterium Rickett...
