physiological function | Agrobacterium-mediated expression in non-hyoscyamine-producing Nicotiana tabacum and hyoscyamine-producing Hyoscyamus muticus. Transgenic Nicotiana tabacum hairy roots show a more efficient uptake of hyoscyamine from the culture medium and a higher rate of bioconversion of hyoscyamine to scopolamine than those of Hyoscamus muticus. The secretion of scopolamine in Nicotiana tabacum hairy roots is up to 85% of the total scopolamine being released to the culture medium. Exogenous hyoscyamine also causes changes in nicotine alkaloid accumulation in Nicotiana tabacum hairy roots | Hyoscyamus niger |
