Molecular evolution and expression divergence of three key Met biosynthetic genes in plants: CGS, HMT and MMT
Methionine (Met) is an essential sulfur-containing amino acid in animals. Cereal and legume crops with limiting levels of Met represent the major food and feed sources for animals. In plants, cystathionine gamma-synthase (CGS), methionine methyltransferase (MMT) and homocysteine methyltransferase (H...
