to investigate the effect of Lyr expression on the amino acid profile of the host cells, the composition of free amino acids in the leaves of wild-type and transgenic tobacco plants is determined, the results reveal a substantial 40fold and a marginal 4fold increase of free L-aspartate content in the wild-type and transgenic plants, respectively, grown on L-lysine medium as compared to plants grown on medium containing D-lysine or without lysine supplement
