Research Abstract |
P23k is a barley protein that is highly expressed inβ-glucan-rich tissues. To elucidate the relationship between P23k andβ-glucan synthesis, a gain of function analysis of P23k were performed. The β-glucan content in P23k-expressing transgenic rice was increased slightly. In addition, β-amylase was isolated as a candidate of P23k interacting protein by GST pull-down assay. These results suggest that P23k is involved in the synthesis ofβ-glucan in barley.
