Novel insights into regulation of asparagine synthetase in conifers

Novel insights into regulation of asparagine synthetase in conifers

Asparagine, a key amino acid for nitrogen storage and transport in plants, is synthesized via the ATP-dependent reaction catalyzed by the enzyme asparagine synthetase (AS; EC 6.3.5.4). In this work, we present the molecular analysis of two full-length cDNAs that encode asparagine synthetase in marit...
