Abstract
We have isolated a Pinus sylvestris cDNA encoding a globular protein of 474 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 52,995 Da. The deduced amino acid sequence showed 41.9% identity and 13.6% similarity to mammalian cytosolic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA-synthase (HMGS). Treatment of Scots pine seedlings with ozone resulted in a transient increase of a 1.95 kb transcript, whereas a 1.2 kb mRNA decreased transiently, indicating a possible influence of ozone on isoprenoid biosynthesis.Entities:
