The cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD) gene family in flax (Linum usitatissimum L.): Insight from expression profiling of cads induced by elicitors in cultured flax cells
Cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD) is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of lignin and lignans as it catalyzes the final step of monolignol biosynthesis, using NADPH as a cofactor. In higher plants, CAD is encoded by a multigene family consisting of three major classes. Based on the recentl...
