A PPR protein with high performance is provided. A PPR protein that binds to a long nucleotide sequence is provided by linking motifs in a number larger than conventionally used 7 to 14. A PPR motif is provided, of which typical examples are the followings: (A-1) a PPR motif consisting of the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 9 or 401, (C-1) a PPR motif consisting of the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 10, (G-1) a PPR motif consisting of the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 11, and (U-1) a PPR motif consisting of the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 12. These motifs are useful as PPR motifs for adenine, cytosine, guanine, and uracil in a target nucleotide sequence, respectively. |
