Delta7-sterol-C5-desaturase: molecular characterization and functional expression of wild-type and mutant alleles.

Plant molecular biology - 1 Mar 1999

Husselstein T, Schaller H, Gachotte D, Benveniste P

Abstract excerpt

An Arabidopsis thaliana recessive monogenic mutant (ste1-1) presenting a deficiency of the delta7-sterol-C5(6)-desaturase step in the sterol pathway has been reported previously [12]. To further characterize ste1-1, Arabidopsis, Nicotiana tabacum and Homo sapiens cDNAs encoding delta7-sterol-C5(6)-desaturases were isolated and identified on the basis of their ability to restore ergosterol synthesis in erg3, a...
