2.3.2.15 | more |
despite constitutive expression of the enzyme during most stages of plant development, Brassica juncea may react to prolonged exposure to Cd2+ with an increase of phytochelatin synthase protein in leaves |
2.3.2.15 | more |
the presence of VdCl2 activates phytochelatin synthase and induces the synthesis of substantial amounts of phytochelatins |
