Increased β-cyanoalanine nitrilase activity improves cyanide tolerance and assimilation in Arabidopsis.
Plants naturally produce cyanide (CN) which is maintained at low levels in their cells by a process of rapid assimilation. However, high concentrations of environmental CN associated with activities such as industrial pollution are toxic to plants. There is thus an interest in increasing the CN deto...
