What is Isolation and molecular characterization of the Arabidopsis TPS1 gene, encoding trehalose‐6‐phosphate synthase about?
## Summary An __Arabidopsis thaliana__ cDNA clone, __AtTPS1__, that encodes a trehalose‐6‐phosphate synthase was isolated. The identity of this protein is supported by both structural and functional evidence. On one hand, the predicted sequence of the protein encoded by __AtTPS1__ showed a high degree of similarity with trehalose‐6‐phosphate synthases of different organisms. On the other hand, expression of the __AtTPS1__ cDNA in the yeast __tps1__ mutant restored its ability to synthesize trehalose and suppressed its growth defect related to the lack of trehalose‐6‐phosphate. Genomic organization and expression analyses suggest that __AtTPS1__ is a single‐copy gene and is expressed constitutively at very low levels.
