Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The following three results were obtained from this research project. (1) functional and expressional analyses of eight CYP78 genes in rice and genetical studies using Arabidopsis mutants have shown that CYP78 function is conserved, and that the substances they produce are produced locally in the plant body and are transported only to a limited extent. (2) Purification of CYP78 protein and measurement of enzymatic activity were difficult to perform by conventional methods. Purified CYP78 activities also differed from that of previous study. (3) From genetical studies and analyses of ge suppressor mutants, we identified three novel factors that are thought to act in the CYP78 regulatory pathway.
