Bona fide choline monoxygenases evolved in Amaranthaceae plants from oxygenases of unknown function: Evidence from phylogenetics, homology modeling and docking studies
Few land plants can synthesize and accumulate the osmoprotectant glycine betaine (GB) even though this metabolic trait has major adaptive importance given the prevalence of drought, hypersaline soils or cold. GB is synthesized from choline in two reactions catalyzed by choline monooxygenases (CMOs)...
