Characterization of the final two genes of the gibberellin biosynthesis gene cluster of Gibberella fujikuroi: des and P450-3 encode GA4 desaturase and the 13-hydroxylase, respectively.

Abstract excerpt

Recently, six genes of the gibberellin (GA) biosynthesis gene cluster in Gibberella fujikuroi were cloned and the functions of five of these genes were determined. Here we describe the function of the sixth gene, P450-3, and the cloning and functional analysis of a seventh gene, orf3, located at the left border of the gene cluster. We have thereby defined the complete GA biosynthesis gene cluster in this fungus....
