Production and characterization of mutants of UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase

UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (UGPase) is a key component of carbohydrate production in plants, especially with respect to sucrose synthesis/ metabolism, by producing UDP-glucose, a key precursor to sucrose and to many polysaccharides in cell walls. UDP-glucose is also utilized in the synthesis of c...
