Mitochondria as a Possible Place for Initial Stages of Steroid Biosynthesis in Plants

Mitochondria as a Possible Place for Initial Stages of Steroid Biosynthesis in Plants

With the aim of thorough comparison of steroidogenic systems of plants and animals, transgenic plants of Solanaceae family expressing CYP11A1 cDNA encoding cytochrome P450SCC of mammalian mitochondria were further analysed. Positive effect of CYP11A1 on resistance of the transgenic tobacco plants to...
