General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function total phenolic compounds increase in transgenic plants overexpressing the enzyme mainly because of the increase in 12 major phenolic compounds, namely, benzoic acid, chlorogenic acid, protocatechuic acid, chlorogenic acid, t-cinnamic acid, vanillic acid, veratric acid, salicylic acid, homogentisic acid, gallic acid, ferulic acid, myricetin, quercetin, rutin, and kaempferol. Overexpression of the enzyme disrupts the metabolism of phenolic compounds and subsequently produces biochemical changes in the overexpressing transgenic plants Arabidopsis thaliana
