The branched-chain amino acid transaminase gene family in Arabidopsis encodes plastid and mitochondrial proteins.

Plant physiology - 1 Jun 2002

Diebold Ruth, Schuster Joachim, Däschner Klaus, Binder Stefan

Abstract excerpt

Branched-chain amino acid transaminases (BCATs) play a crucial role in the metabolism of leucine, isoleucine, and valine. They catalyze the last step of the synthesis and/or the initial step of the degradation of this class of amino acids. In Arabidopsis, seven putative BCAT genes are identified by their similarity to their counterparts from other organisms. We have now cloned the respective cDNA sequences of six...
