Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information enzyme knock-out plants have significantly less chlorosis after treatment with the superoxide-generating compound paraquat, show delayed induction of the antioxidant gene GST1 and inceased levels of chloroplastic CuZn superoxide dismutase 2 mRNA Arabidopsis thaliana
additional information virus-induced gene silencing of enzyme causes a 90% reduction in its activity, leading to stunting, spontaneous necrotic lesions, and increased resistance to paraquat. Silenced plants show less cell death after transient co-expression of the AvrPto and Pto proteins or the pro-apoptotoc protein Bax. Silenced plants expressing the Pto transgene display a delayed hypersensitive response and support higher levels of bacterial growth Nicotiana benthamiana
