Separation Procedure and Partial Characterization of Two NAD(P)H Dehydrogenases from Cauliflower Mitochondria.

abstract：:Understanding the biochemistry of triacylglycerol (TAG) assembly is critical in tailoring seed oils to produce high-value products. Hydroxy-fatty acid (HFA) is one such valuable modified fatty acid, which can be produced at low levels in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) seed through transgenic expression of the cast...
