Nucleotide sequence of an Arabidopsis cDNA for phytoene synthase.
Carotenoid biosynthesis is a process vital to a11 photosynthetic organisms. Carotenoids provide photoprotection for the photosynthetic apparatus by dissipating excess energy in the form of heat (Koyama, 1991). PSY catalyzes the formation of phytoene, the first dedicated intermediate in the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway. We have previously isolated two PSY cDNAs from tomato that correspond to ...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence of an Arabidopsis cDNA for geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthase.
GGPS is an enzyme involved in the early steps of isoprenoid synthesis in plants. The bell pepper (Capsicum annuum) GGPS catalyzes the stepwise addition of isopentenyl PPi, first to dimethylallyl PPi, second to geranyl PPi, and fmally to farnesyl PPi to form geranylgeranyl PPi (Kuntz et al., 1992). Geranylgeranyl PPi is utililized by plants for many compounds such as carotenoids, Chls, and phyll...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence of a functional cDNA for human thymidylate synthase.
We have determined the nucleotide sequence of a cDNA clone, pcHTS-1, encoding human thymidylate synthase (5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate: dUMP C-methyltransferase, EC 2.1.1.45) which was previously isolated from a human fibroblast expressible cDNA library and functional in mouse cells. The 1.6 kilobase cDNA insert of pcHTS-1 encodes a subunit protein of 313 amino acid (Mr = 35,706) and its pred...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence of cDNA encoding for preprochymosin in native goat (Capra hircus) from Iran
Prochymosin is one of the most important aspartic proteinases used as a milk-clotting enzyme in cheese production. In the present investigation we report sequence of cDNA encoding goat ( Capra hircus ) preprochymosin and compare its nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences with sequences of other ruminants preprochymosin. As bovine prochymosin, the caprine prochymosin cDNA encodes 365 amino ...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence of a cDNA clone encoding an Arabidopsis thaliana thioredoxin h.
Thioredoxins are small proteins of approximately 12 kD that reduce disulfide bridges of target proteins by the reversible formation of a disulfide bridge between two neighboring Cys residues present in the active site (Try-Cys-Gly-Pro-Cys). Thioredoxins have been found to regulate a variety of biological reactions in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells (Holmgren, 1985). In higher plants, two thior...
