Title
Metabolic regulation of asparagine synthetase gene expression in maize (Zea mays L.) root tips
Christian Chevalier; Emmanuelle Bourgeois; Daniel Just; et al. The Plant Journal 1996. doi:10.1046/j.1365-313x.1996.09010001.x
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation A cDNA called pZSS1 was highly induced by glucose deprivation.
- Observation The pZSS1 encoded sequence was about 60% identical to asparagine synthetases from four named plants.
- Observation Maize asparagine synthetase may be encoded by at least two genes.
- Observation The isolated AS gene was expressed mainly in maize seedling roots.
- Observation pZSS1 expression peaked 18 to 24 hours after starvation began.
- Intervention effect Metabolizable sugars downregulated gene expression.
- Intervention effect Nonmetabolizable sugar feeding induced gene expression.
- Mechanism Nitrogen metabolite supply and stress conditions indicate metabolic control of gene expression.
