We demonstrate that GAPCps are important for the synthesis of serine in roots. In spite of their low gene expression level as compared with other GAPDHs, GAPCp down-regulation leads to altered gene expression and to drastic changes in the sugar and amino acid balance of the plant. gapcp double mutants display a drastic phenotype of arrested root development, dwarfism, and sterility. In this work, we have identified two Arabidopsis ( Arabidopsis thaliana) chloroplast/plastid-localized GAPDH isoforms (GAPCp1 and GAPCp2). However, the in vivo functions of the plastidial isoforms remain unresolved. Both cytosolic (GAPCs) and plastidial (GAPCps) GAPDH activities have been described. The glycolytic glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) catalyzes the conversion of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate with concomitant reduction of NAD + to NADH. Glycolysis is a central metabolic pathway that, in plants, occurs in both the cytosol and the plastids.

I don't really have much to add about the content of the book, it's exactly what it says it is and that's a great thing. With that out of the way the book itself is excellent, with the exception of the authors comments at the end of the book - he should stick with telling other peoples story. Either he reader got better or I got used to it since by the end of the book I didn't notice it much, but that was 10+ hours before I felt that way. It's extremely annoying since the guy can read well and has a pleasant voice but the pacing with all the pauses is frustrating.
