Abstract excerpt
An Arabidopsis thaliana mutant was identified as having increases in 12 of 20 free proteogenic amino acids in seeds. Because these metabolites are produced from multiple, seemingly unrelated biosynthetic networks, it was not possible to use a candidate gene approach to discover the enzyme defect responsible for this complex syndrome. Complementary metabolite profiling analyses revealed increased seed...
