LITERATURE
agriculture
reduction of the level of arsenic (As) in rice grains is an important challenge for agriculture. Phytochelatin synthase OsPCS1 plays a crucial role in reducing arsenic levels in rice grains. Transgenic plants highly expressing OsPCS1 show significantly lower As levels in grains compared to wild-type plants. PCS1 is a good candidate tool to reduce As levels in rice grains
analysis
a HPLC method for the analysis of the activity of phytochelatin synthase is developed
biotechnology
environmental protection
-
yeast cells expressing AtPCS can be used as an inexpensive sorbent for the removal of toxic arsenic
