Plant biotin-containing carboxylases

BJ Nikolau, JB Ohlrogge, ES Wurtele - Archives of biochemistry and …, 2003 - Elsevier
Biotin-containing proteins are found in all forms of life, and they catalyze carboxylation,
decarboxylation, or transcarboxylation reactions that are central to metabolism. In plants, five …

Targeting of the Arabidopsis homomeric acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase to plastids of rapeseeds

K Roesler, D Shintani, L Savage, S Boddupalli… - Plant …, 1997 - academic.oup.com
Acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase (ACCase) occurs in at least two forms in rapeseed

Embryo-specific reduction of ADP-Glc pyrophosphorylase leads to an inhibition of starch synthesis and a delay in oil accumulation in developing seeds of oilseed rape

H Vigeolas, T Möhlmann, N Martini… - Plant …, 2004 - academic.oup.com
In oil-storing Brassica napus (rape) seeds, starch deposition occurs only transiently in the
early stages of development, and starch is absent from mature seeds. This work investigates …

Fatty acid and lipid biosynthetic genes are expressed at constant molar ratios but different absolute levels during embryogenesis

P O'Hara, AR Slabas, T Fawcett - Plant Physiology, 2002 - academic.oup.com
In plants, fatty acid and complex lipid synthesis requires the correct spatial and temporal
activity of many gene products. Quantitative northern analysis showed that mRNA for the …
