Bioinformatic and in vitro Analyses of Arabidopsis Starch Synthase 2 Reveal Post-translational Regulatory Mechanisms

Starch synthase 2 (SS2) is an important enzyme in leaf starch synthesis, elongating intermediate-length glucan chains. Loss of SS2 results in a distorted starch granule phenotype and altered physiochemical properties, highlighting its importance in starch biosynthesis, however, the post-translationa...
