Abstract excerpt
Ent-kaurenoic acid oxidase (KAO), a class of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases of the subfamily CYP88A, catalyzes the conversion of ent-kaurenoic acid (KA) to gibberellin (GA) GA12 , the precursor of all GAs, thereby playing an important role in determining GA concentration in plants. Past work has demonstrated the importance of KAO activity for growth in various plant species. In Arabidopsis, this enzyme is encoded...
