Expression data from tocopherol deficient seedlings of Arabidopsis
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Tocopherols (Vitamin E) are lipophilic antioxidants that are synthesized by all plants and are particularly abundant in seeds. Two tocopherol deficient mutant loci were used to examine how tocopherol deficiency impacts global gene expression during the critical peroid of germination and early seedling development when tocopherols are essential. vte1 lacks all tocopherols, but accumulates the tocopherol pathway intermediate DMPBQ,. vte2 which lacks all tocopherols and pathway intermediates. We used microarrays to examine the global gene expression in early seedlings and identify distinct classes of genes whose expression is affected by tocopherol deficient mutants vte1 and vte2.
