Abstract
The cytochrome P450 superfamily is a large enzymatic protein family that is widely distributed along diverse kingdoms. In plants, cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYPs) participate in a vast array of pathways leading to the synthesis and modification of multiple metabolites with variable and important functions during different stages of plant development. This includes the biosynthesis and degradation of a great assortment of compounds implicated in a variety of physiological responses, such as signaling and defense, organ patterning and the biosynthesis of structural polymers, among others. In this review, we summarize the characteristics of the different families of plant CYPs, focusing on the most recent advances in elucidating the roles of CYPs in plant growth and development and more specifically, during plant gametogenesis, fertilization and embryogenesis.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Developmental Biology (ISSN: 0214-
6282) is an independent, not for profit scholarly journal, published by
scientists, for scientists. The journal publishes papers which throw
light on our understanding of animal and plant developmental mechanisms in health and disease and, in particular, research which elucidates the developmental principles underlying stem cell properties
and cancer. Technical, historical or theoretical approaches also fall
within the scope of the journal. Criteria for acceptance include scientific excellence, novelty and quality of presentation of data and illustrations. Advantages of publishing in the journal include: rapid
publication; free unlimited color reproduction; no page charges; free
publication of online supplementary material; free publication of audio
files (MP3 type); one-to-one personalized attention at all stages
during the editorial process. An easy online submission facility and an
open online access option, by means of which papers can be published without any access restrictions. In keeping with its mission, the
journal offers free online subscriptions to academic institutions in
developing countries.
