Sterol 3-beta-Glucosyltransferase TRANSPARENT TESTA15 Controls Seed Development and Flavanol Accumulation through its Role in Vacuole Biogenesis and Maintenance in Arabidopsis

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The Arabidopsis sterol 3-beta-glucosyltransferase UGT80B1/TRANSPARENT TESTA15 (TT15) catalyzes sterol glucoside biosynthesis. Its loss of function causes reduced seed size, defective flavanol, polysaccharide and lipid polyester deposition at the seed coat and reduced seed dormancy. How TT15 controls seed development and physiology is unknown. Here we show that tt15 mutants exhibit seed lethalit...
