Molecular Analysis of the Pathway for the Synthesis of Thiol Tripeptides in the Model Legume Lotus japonicus
The thiol tripeptides, glutathione (GSH) and homoglu-tathione (hGSH), perform multiple roles in legumes, including protection against toxicity of free radicals and heavy metals. The three genes involved in the synthesis of GSH and hGSH in the model legume, Lotus japonicus, have been fully characteri...
