Abstract excerpt
The results in the present study emphasize that in Arabidopsis thaliana genome, gamma-GTase encoded by a gene family comprised of four genes. Three of these genes are functionally expressed while the fourth is a pseudogene. The three functional genes express different active protein isoforms that appeared to have different functions. Two genes (GGT1 and GGT2) are structurally similar and expresses proteins with...
