Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Amino acids on the surface of enzymes play a vital role in their catalytic activity and functional properties, influencing enzymatic stability and inducing conformational changes. RESULTS: In this research, we demonstrate that surface mutations in geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase1 from Nicotiana tabacum (NtGGPPS1) improve carotenoid biosynthesis and increase drought tolerance. We introduced three...
