Abstract excerpt
In contrast to bacterial, fungal and vertebrate ornithine transcarbamylases (OTCs; EC 2.1.3.3), very little is known about the enzyme in plants. We report here the isolation of a T-DNA-tagged mutant displaying sensitivity to ornithine, whose characterization has allowed for the identification of several complementary and genomic DNA clones encoding the OTC and auxilin-like 1 (AUL1) proteins of the crucifer...
