Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We succeeded to construct the serine racemase gene-disruption mutant and overexpressed mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana. By using these mutants and wild-type strain of Arabidopsis thaliana, we evaluated the effects of various D- and L- amino acids on germination and growth of these strains. In case of D-serine, the serine racemase gene overexpressed mutant showed higher tolerant than other strains. This probably attributed to the D-serine degradation activity of serine rasemase. In case of L-serine, both serine racemase gene-disruption mutant and overexpressed mutant showed higher tolerant than wild-type strain.
