Literature summary for 2.7.2.4 extracted from
- Overexpression of mutated forms of aspartate kinase and cystathionine gamma-synthase in tobacco leaves resulted in the high accumulation of methionine and threonine (2008), Plant J., 54, 260-271.
Application
| Application | Comment | Organism |
|---|---|---|
| nutrition | high methionine and methionine metabolite levels are found in tobacco plants expressing bAK/D-AtCGS and bAK/T-AtCGS, this is the result of the enhanced flux of the carbon/amino skeleton towards methionine synthesis, to improve the nutritional quality of crop plants, by increasing the levels of nutritionally important essential amino acids, methionine and threonine, by expressing bAK and F-AtCGS, a significantly higher methionine level could be achieved in plants expressing bAK together with D-AtCGS. | Nicotiana tabacum |
