General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction a point mutation of a gene encoding argininosuccinate lyase causes a short root phenotype in the root elongation defect 1 mutant ref1, the enzyme activity is lost by the mutation R140L in OsASL1.1. The mutant has a shorter length from the quiescent center to the starting point of the elongation zone but a similar cell size and number of lateral and crown roots, and similar radial structure and nutrient uptake patterns compared to the wild-type. The mutant phenotype can be rescued by exogenous addition of arginine, but not by other amino acids Oryza sativa
metabolism the enzyme catalyzes the last step of arginine biosynthesis Oryza sativa
physiological function the enzyme is required for arginine production for use in normal root elongation in rice Oryza sativa
