Abstract excerpt
Expression of the gene encoding the beta subunit of beta-conglycinin, a major soybean seed storage protein, is upregulated by sulfur deficiency and downregulated by methionine (Met). The tissue-specificity of these regulatory mechanisms was studied using a sulfate-responsive region (beta(SR)) from the beta subunit gene promoter. Transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana lines were generated carrying a green fluorescent...
