Overexpression of an Arabidopsis cDNA Encoding a Sterol-C24(1)-Methyltransferase in Tobacco Modifies the Ratio of 24-Methyl Cholesterol to Sitosterol and Is Associated with Growth Reduction

Higher plants synthesize 24-methyl sterols and 24-ethyl sterols in defined proportions. As a first step in investigating the physiological function of this balance, an Arabidopsis cDNA encoding an S-adenosyl-l-methionine 24-methylene lophenol-C24(1)-methyltransferase, the typical plant enzyme respon...
