Functional Analysis of Putative Adenosine Recycling Enzymes in Arabidopsis thaliana
(University of Waterloo, 2009-09-25)Adenosine (Ado) salvage is essential in plant development. The lack of Ado kinase activity (ADK) in Arabidopsis thaliana adk1 adk2 double mutants results in embryonic lethality; reduction of ADK expression causes a pleiotropic ... -
Investigating the localization and functional significance of adenine phosphoribosyltransferase1 in Arabidopsis chloroplasts
(University of Waterloo, 2014-09-02)Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APT) is a housekeeping enzyme that catalyses the principal route of adenine recycling in plants. Of the five APT genes encoded in the Arabidopsis genome, APT1 is the most highly expressed. ... -
A Study on Intraorganismal Genetic Heterogeneity in Arabidopsis thaliana in Response to Stress
(University of Waterloo, 2012-09-04)In sexually reproducing individuals, intraorganismal genetic heterogeneity (IGH) or mosaicism is thought to occur infrequently while genetic homogeneity is presumed the norm. In organisms that undergo modular development, ...
