glutamic acid decarboxylase/oryza sativa

Plant tryptophan decarboxylase (TDC) is a type II Pyridoxal-5'-phosphate-dependent decarboxylase (PLP_DC) that could be used as a target to genetically improve crops. However, lack of accurate structural information on plant TDC hampers the understanding of its decarboxylation mechanisms. In the

Rice seedlings (Oryza sativa) that have died from drought cannot be rescued by watering afterward, but pre-treatment with exogenous acetic acid enabled the plants to produce shoots again after being watered (hereinafter referred to as "drought resilience"). To elucidate the metabolism of acetic
