Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Nicotiana tabacum under normal callus growth conditions in the presence of light and auxin, enzyme promoter activity is strongly repressed down
Nicotiana tabacum treatments with diphenyleneiodinium chloride, Rose Bengal diacetate, and 1,2-dihydroxybenzene-3,5-disulfonic acid do not induce or repress enzyme expression additional information
Nicotiana tabacum dark conditions and the absence of auxin upregulate enzyme promoter activity, with light being dominant to the repressive effects of auxin. Under highly repressive conditions for alkaloid synthesis, including normal culture conditions in the light, both reactive oxygen species scavengers result in significant induction of enzyme promoter activity. Treatment of callus with catalase results in the upregulation of enzyme promoter activity up
