Dissecting the Opaque-2 regulatory network using transcriptome and proteome approaches along with enzyme activity measurements
The Opaque-2 (O2) gene encodes a transcriptional activator specifically expressed for grain development of maize. o2 mutants have an opaque and chalky kernel, with a decrease in zein storage protein content, and an increase in the proportions of lysine and tryptophan. In this review, we present rece...
