LITERATURE
evolution
the enzyme belongs to the subclass of cystathionine beta-lyase with type I folding of the polypeptide chain of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent enzymes
malfunction
-
in planta silencing of StMGL1 results in an increased methionine to isoleucine ratio in the free amino acid profile of potato tubers and, in some transgenic lines, elevated accumulation of free methionine. In both wild-type and transgenic tubers, the ratio of methionine to isoleucine is negatively correlated with the level of StMGL1 transcript
