Allocation of Heme is Differentially Regulated by Ferrochelatase Isoforms in Arabidopsis Cells
Heme is involved in various biological processes as a cofactor of hemoproteins located in various organelles.In plant cells, heme is synthesized by two isoforms of plastid-localized ferrochelatase, FC1 and FC2.In this study, by characterizing Arabidopsis T-DNA insertional mutants, we showed that the allocation of heme is differentially regulated by
