The import of cytosolically synthesized precursor proteins into chloroplasts by the translocon at the outer envelope membrane of chloroplasts (TOC) is crucial for organelle function. The recognition of precursor proteins at the chloroplast surface precedes translocation and involves the membrane‐inserted receptor subunits Toc34 and Toc159. A third receptor, Toc64, was discussed to recognize cytosolic complexes guiding precursor proteins to the membrane surface, but this function remains debated. We analysedArabidopsis thalianaplants carrying a T‐DNA insertion in the gene encoding the Toc64 homolog Toc64‐III. We observed a light intensity‐dependent growth phenotype, which is distinct from the phenotype ofppi1, the previously described mutant of theTOC34homologTOC33. Furthermore, chloroplast import of the model precursor proteins pOE33 and pSSU into chloroplasts is reduced in protoplasts isolated from plants with impaired Toc64‐III function. This suggests that Toc64‐III modulates the translocation efficiencyin vivo. Appi1andtoc64‐IIIdouble mutant shows a significant increase in the transcript levels ofHSP90andTOC75‐III, the latter coding for the pore‐forming TOC component. Remarkably, the protein level of Toc75‐III is significantly reduced, suggesting that Toc64‐III and Toc33 cooperate in the insertion or stabilization of Toc75‐III. Accordingly, the results presented support Toc64 as an import‐relevant component of the TOC complex.
