A mutant of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii that cannot acclimate to low CO2 conditions has an insertion in the Hdh1 gene.

Photosynthetic microorganisms must acclimate to environmental conditions, such as low CO2 environments or high light intensities, which may lead to photo-oxidative stress. In an effort to understand how photosynthetic microorganisms acclimate to these conditions, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was transformed using the BleR cassette, selected for Zeocin resistance and screened for colonies that showed poor growth at low CO2 levels. One of the insertional mutants obtained, named slc-230, was shown to have a BleR insert in the first exon of Hdh1, a novel, single copy gene. The predicted Hdh1 gene product has similarity to bacterial haloacid dehalogenase-like proteins, a protein family that includes phosphatases and epoxide hydrolases. In addition, Hdh1 is predicted to be localised to the chloroplast or mitochondria in C. reinhardtii. It was found that a genomic copy of wild type Hdh1 can complement slc-230.
