Contents of cysteine (upper row), γ-glutamylcysteine (GEC; middle row), and glutathione (GSH; lower row) are shown for plants overexpressing , , and , respectively, or down-regulated with respect to
Plants were grown for 10 weeks on soil before thiol extraction. knock-downs are represented by cross-hatched columns, overexpressing lines by white columns, and wild-type (WT) and empty-vector control lines (EV) by black columns. Values are the mean ±SD of three independent experiments. Asterisks indicate that the difference between the wild-type plants and the manipulated transgenic plants was significant using -tests ( ≤0.05).<p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "Transcription factors relevant to auxin signalling coordinate broad-spectrum metabolic shifts including sulphur metabolism"</p><p></p><p>Journal of Experimental Botany 2008;59(10):2831-2846.</p><p>Published online Jan 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2486478.</p><p></p
