Abstract excerpt
Maize glutathione S-transferase (GST) isozymes are encoded by a gene family comprising at least five genes, three of which (Gst I, II and III) have recently been isolated and sequenced. The enzymes are active as homo or heterodimers and exhibit intraspecific polymorphism including a "null" variant for the two major isoforms expressed in roots. Northern blot analyses performed on total root RNA from "null" and...
