| 5.4.99.41 | metabolism |
the enzyme is involved in the glycyrrhizin biosynthetic pathway. Controlled drought stress up-regulates the expression of key genes involved in the biosynthesis of triterpenoid saponins and directly enhances the production of secondary metabolites, including glycyrrhizin, in liquorice plants |
