Abstract excerpt
Aminoalcoholphosphotransferases (AAPT, EC 2.7.8.1 and EC 2.7.8.2) catalyze the transfer of CDP-aminoalcohols to sn-1, 2 diacylglycerol (DAG) to form phosphatidylaminoalcohols with the release of CMP. The Brassica napus L. AAPT1 gene (designated BnAAPT1) was identified from cDNA libraries of seedlings and developing seeds. Functional characterization was accomplished by heterologous expression of BnAAPT1 in a...
