Abstract excerpt
MAIN CONCLUSION: PP2A catalytic subunit C2 is of special importance for light/dark regulation of nitrate reductase activity. The level of unmethylated PP2A catalytic subunits decreases in darkness. Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) dephosphorylates and activates nitrate reductase (NR) in photosynthetically active tissue when plants are transferred from darkness to light. In the present work, investigation of...
