Characteristics of tomato cell wall degradation in vitro: implications for the study of fruit-softening enzymes.

abstract：:We report the characterization of cis-acting elements involved in light regulation of the nuclear gene (GapA) that encodes the A subunit of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase in Arabidopsis thaliana. Our previous deletion analyses indicate that the -277 to -195 upstream region of GapA is essential for light indu...
