BARLEY ALDOSE REDUCTASE 1 COMPLEX WITH BUTANOL


Cytokinin deshydrogenase, also called CKX, is an enzyme which degrades cytokinin hormones in plants and which is encoded by the gene ZmCKX1. The one is located in Zea Maize on the chromosome 3 (NCBI Gene ID: 542585) and belongs to a multigene family called Vanillyl-Alcohol Oxidase (VAO) flavoprotein family. The gene is more particularly expressed in the kernel of maize, mainly in the embryo since it may protect the embryo from too much cytokinin and permit the correct development. [1]
