Cytosolic CTP Production Limits the Establishment of Photosynthesis in Arabidopsis

Cytosolic CTP Production Limits the Establishment of Photosynthesis in Arabidopsis

CTP synthases (CTPS) comprise a protein family of the five members CTPS1-CTPS5 in Arabidopsis, all located in the cytosol. Specifically, downregulation of CTPS2 by amiRNA technology results in plants with defects in chlorophyll accumulation and photosynthetic performance early in development. CTP an...
