Abstract excerpt
Phosphatidylethanolamine is the predominant phospholipid of the mitochondrial inner membrane. In Arabidopsis, pect1-4 mutants exhibit reduced cellular phosphatidylethanolamine levels owing to reduced CTP:phosphorylethanolamine cytidylyltransferase (PECT; EC 2.7.7.14) activity. Consequently, pect1...
