Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Maize ISA1 supported nearly normal starch metabolism in Arabidopsis leaves lacking native ISA1 or ISA2.
- Observation Arabidopsis ISA1 required ISA2 for enzymatic function.
- Observation Maize ISA1 was enzymatically active alone.
- Observation Recombinant and native maize ISA had different electrophoretic mobility.
- Mechanism The mobility difference suggests posttranslational modifications in vivo.
- Observation Previous gel permeation data estimated recombinant maize ISA1 as a tetramer.
- Mechanism The authors attribute ISA1 functional distinctions between monocots and dicots to evolutionary divergence.
