expressed in Niotiana tabacum leaf chloroplasts | Arabidopsis thaliana |
overexpression in the chloroplasts of transgenic tobacco using a light inducible promote. Overexpression of the Arabidopsis formate dehydrogenase in chloroplasts enhances formaldehyde uptake and metabolism in transgenic tobacco leaves. Overexpression in chloroplasts fails to introduce the carbon flux of HCHO metabolism into the Calvin cycle in transgenic tobacco leaves. However, the overexpression significantly enhances the HCHO metabolism in transgenic leaves. Consequently, the productions of Asn, Gln, oxalate, and HCOOH are notably greater in transgenic leaves than in non-transformed leaves after treatment with HcHO. The increased stomatal conductance and aperture in transgenic leaves might be ascribed to the increased yield of oxalate in the guard cells with overexpressed enzyme in chloroplasts. Accordingly, the transgenic plants exhibit a stronger capacity to absorb gaseous HCHO. The higher proline content in transgenic leaves compared with non-transformed leaves under HCHO stress might be attributable to the excess formate accumulation and Gln production. Consequently, the HCHO-induced oxidative stress is reduced in transgenic leaves | Arabidopsis thaliana |
