摘要: Arabidopsis thaliana N-acetylglutamate kinase (NAGK) was identified as a functional homolog of Escherichia coli NAGK for catalyzing the second step of arginine biosynthesis. Loss-of-function of NAGK decreased pollen tubes' growth rate, affected female gametophyte cell fate and showed an embryonic lethal phenotype.
