Alteration in structure of multifunctional protein from Chinese hamster ovary cells defective in pyrimidine biosynthesis.

abstract：:Intercropping, which grows at least two crop species on the same pieces of land at the same time, can increase grain yields greatly. Legume-grass intercrops are known to overyield because of legume nitrogen fixation. However, many agricultural soils are deficient in phosphorus. Here we show that a new mechanism of ove...
