Abstract: Polyphenol oxidases (PPOs) contain the structurally similar enzymes tyrosinases (TYRs) and catechol oxidases (COs). Two cDNAs encoding pro-PPOs from tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) were cloned and heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. The two pro-PPOs (SlPPO1-2) differ… read more here.
