Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information development of transgenic rice plants to constitutively overexpress the OsUGE-1 gene (OsUGE1-OX1-2). The transgenic rice lines are similar in size to wild-type plants at the vegetative stage and at maturity regardless of the N-level tested. OsUGE1-OX lines maintain 18-24% more sucrose and 12-22% less cellulose in shoots compared to wild-type when subjected to suboptimal N-levels. OsUGE1-OX lines maintain proportionally more galactose and glucose in the hemicellulosic polysaccharide profile of plants compared to wild-type plants when grown under low N. The altered cell wall C-partitioning during N-limitation in the OsUGE1-OX lines appears to be mediated by OsUGE1 via the repression of the cellulose synthesis associated genes, OsSus1, OsCesA4, 7, and 9.

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution the rice genome contains four putative UGE-encoding genes (OsUGE1-4). All four predicted OsUGEs in rice carry an epimerase domain and belong to the NAD+ dependent epimerase/dehydratase family proteins that use NAD+ as a cofactor and nucleotide-sugars as substrates. Expression profiles of UGEs in Oryza sativa support distinct in planta roles throughout development Oryza sativa Japonica Group
