Description
Jin-Young Kim and co-authors knock out a rice gene for a key glycolytic enzyme and track effects on seed energy metabolism. The enzyme family has eight genes in rice, grouped into four structural classes. Five cytosolic forms show distinct expression levels across plant organs, which hints at divided roles.
Gene editing creates deletions that stop the target protein early. Mutant plants grow shorter than wild type plants. Genes for starch branching rise sharply in the knockouts, while genes for sugar handling and a related step fall. Starch and soluble sugar content in seeds rise by more than 60 percent, and some free amino acids rise as well. The gene thus shapes storage balance in rice seeds.
