VTC2 Antibody

1. GGP/VTC2 acts as a rate-limiting step regulating AsA biosynthesis in response to light and dark conditions PMID: 25036484
2. The VTC5 promoter is more active in young cotyledons; the VTC2 and VTC5 promoters for two GDP-L-galactose phosphorylase isozymes drive a day-to-night variation in expression. PMID: 21897033
3. A high proportion of the primary roots of the vtc2 plants grown on soil had lost the wild-type responses to gravity. PMID: 16720601
4. VTC2 from A. thaliana is a specific GDP-L-galactose/GDP-D-glucose phosphorylase PMID: 17462988
5. At4g26850 codes for GDP-L-galactose-hexose-1-phosphate guanyltransferase which catalyzing the transfer of GMP from GDP-L-galactose to a hexose-1-P, most likely D-mannose-1-phosphate in vivo. [galactose guanyltransferase] PMID: 17485667
6. Data show that a GDP-L-galactose phosphorylase, encoded by the Arabidopsis thaliana VTC2 gene, catalyses this step in the ascorbate biosynthetic pathway. PMID: 17877701
7. Arabidopsis VTC2 and VTC5 proteins are enzymes that guanylylate a conserved active site His residue with GDP-L-galactose, forming L-galactose 1-phosphate for vitamin C synthesis, and regenerate the enzyme with phosphate to form GDP. PMID: 18463094
8. The VTC2 gene was expressed in all developmental stages, and the mRNA was expressed at a higher level in green tissues than in the root. PMID: 18516687
