General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function suppression of prephenate aminotransferase leads to a severe reduction in growth and strong chlorosis symptoms. Prephenate aminotransferase silenced plants exhibit extremely reduced levels of asparagine and are greatly affected in their phenylalanine metabolism and lignin deposition. Prephenate aminotransferase suppression triggers a transcriptional reprogramming in plastid nitrogen metabolism. The enzyme is essential for plant growth and development Nicotiana benthamiana
