Effect of Light on Mevalonic Acid Incorporation into the Phytosterols of Nicotiana tabacum L. Seedlings.

abstract：:The Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) orthologs of Brca2, a protein whose mutations are involved in breast cancer in humans, were previously shown to be essential at meiosis. In an attempt to better understand the Brca2-interacting properties, we examined four partners of the two isoforms of Brca2 identified in Arabi...
