gene ADC1, recombinant heterologous expression of GFP-tagged isozyme ADC1 as homodimers in Nicotiana benthamiana using the Agrobacterium tumefaciens GV3101/pMP90 strain for transformation. The green fluorescence of GFP-AtADC1 fusion is slightly present in the cytosol and it colocalized with the red auto-fluorescence of chlorophyll channel in Nicotiana benthamiana leaf epidermal cells | Arabidopsis thaliana |
gene ADC2, recombinant expression as GFP-tagged protein in Arabidopsis thaliana, recombinant heterologous expression in Nicotiana benthamiana in using the Agrobacterium tumefaciens GV3101/pMP90 strain for transformation, the GFP-AtADC2 fluorescence occurs in the cytosol, and it colocalizes with the red autofluorescence of chlorophyll of tobacco leaf epidermal cells | Arabidopsis thaliana |

additional information | the Arabidopsis thaliana arginine decarboxylase enzymes exhibit a dual subcellular localization both in the cytosol and chloroplast. The isozymes AtADC1 and AtADC2 are able to form homodimers in the cytosol and chloroplast. The formation of AtADC1/AtADC2 heterodimers occurs with similar subcellular localization than homodimers. Both ADC proteins are located in the same cell compartments, and they are able to form protein interaction complexes with each other | Arabidopsis thaliana | - |

physiological function | the arginine decarboxylase enzyme (ADC) carries out the production of agmatine from arginine, which is the precursor of the first polyamine known as putrescine. Subsequently, putrescine is turned into the higher polyamines, spermidine and spermine. In Arabidopsis thaliana polyamine production occurs only from arginine, and this step is initiated by two ADC paralogues, AtADC1 and AtADC2. Polyamine production is essential for Arabidopsis thaliana life cycle | Arabidopsis thaliana |
