Although root nodules are essential for biological nitrogen fixation in legumes, the cell types and molecular regulatory mechanisms contributing to nodule development determinate such as soybean (Glycine max), remain incompletely understood. Here, we generated a single-nucleus resolution transcriptomic atlas of roots at 14 days post inoculation (dpi) annotated 17 major types, including six that specific nodules. We identified responsible each step ureides synthesis pathway, which enables...
Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) is a rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of triacylglycerol (TAG), most important form energy storage plants. Some residues have previously been proven to be crucial for DGAT1 activity. In this study, we used site-directed mutagenesis CeDGAT1 gene from Chlorella ellipsoidea alter 16 amino acids investigate effects on function. Of (L482R, E542R, Y553A, G577R, R579D, Y582R, R596D, H603D, H609D, A624R, F629R, S632A, W650R, A651R, Q658H, and P660R), newly...
