Differential Contribution of Malic Enzymes during Soybean and Castor Seeds Maturation.

Differential Contribution of Malic Enzymes during Soybean and Castor Seeds Maturation.

Malic enzymes (ME) catalyze the decarboxylation of malate generating pyruvate, CO2 and NADH or NADPH. In some organisms it has been established that ME is involved in lipids biosynthesis supplying carbon skeletons and reducing power. In this work we studied the MEs of soybean and castor, metabolical...
