Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Glycine max transcriptional regulation of soybean SMT2 genes is influenced by environmental conditions to some extent: analysis of transcript abundance by qRT-PCR reveals that both the genes SMT2-1 and SMT2-2 are down-regulated after dehydration and markedly induced under cold conditions. ABA treatment elicits an increase in transcript levels for both the genes. A reduction in expression is associated with the salinity treatment for both the genes additional information

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction the SMT2 genes of soybean (SMT2-1 and SMT2-2) are shown to complement the SMT deficient cvp1 mutant Arabidopsis plants Arabidopsis thaliana
malfunction transgenic Arabidopsis seeds expressing GmSMT1 or GmSMT2 show modifications in the ratio of 24-methyl to 24-ethyl sterol in the direction of sitosterol formation Glycine max
