Abstract excerpt
The zinc-binding long-chain alcohol dehydrogenases from plants and animals exhibit a considerable level of amino acid sequence conservation. While the functional importance of many of the conserved residues is known, the role of others has not yet been determined. We have identified a naturally occurring Adh-1 allele in the legume Phaseolus acutifolius with several unusual characteristics. Individuals homozygous...
