Project Type: Specific Cooperative Agreement

Start Date: May 24, 2004
End Date: Feb 27, 2008

Objective:
Examine the physiological and genetic impact of manipulating 14-3-3 proteins and sucrose synthase in plants.

Approach:
Identify enzyme complexes containing sucrose synthase and examine the impact of molecular genetic manipulation of sucrose synthase on gene expression. Transform Arabidopsis plants with 14-3-3 proteins and examine the impact on plant phenotype in relation to changes in the transcriptome and proteome.
