High impact information on AAT1

  • Two genes (CM-AAT1 and CM-AAT2) with strong sequence homology (87% identity at the protein level) putatively involved in the formation of aroma volatile esters have been isolated from Charentais melon fruit [1].
  • One of them (YKL461) shows a high degree of identity with an aspartate aminotransferase gene [2].
  • We have isolated a gene, AAT1, encoding an aspartate aminotransferase (AspAT) from a Saccharomyces cerevisiae genomic library [3].
