Cadmium-sensitive, cad1 mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana are phytochelatin deficient.

Plant physiology - 1 Apr 1995

Howden R, Goldsbrough P B, Andersen C R, Cobbett C S

Abstract excerpt

An allelic series of cad1, cadmium-sensitive mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana, was isolated. These mutants were sensitive to cadmium to different extents and were deficient in their ability to form cadmium-peptide complexes as detected by gel-filtration chromatography. Each mutant was deficient in its ability to accumulate phytochelatins (PCs) as detected by high-performance liquid chromatography and the amount of...
