Genomic organization of 251 kDa acetyl-CoA carboxylase genes in Arabidopsis: tandem gene duplication has made two differentially expressed isozymes.
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) catalyzes the carboxylation of acetyl-CoA, forming malonyl-CoA a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of fatty acids and a variety of secondary metabolites. Based upon… Expand
