The Arabidopsis GA3
cDNA was expressed in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)
and the ability of the transformed yeast cells to metabolize
ent-kaurene was tested. We show by full-scan gas chromatography-mass spectrometry that the transformed cells produce ent-kaurenoic acid, and demonstrate that the single
enzyme GA3 (ent-kaurene oxidase) catalyzes the three
steps of gibberellin biosynthesis from ent-kaurene to
ent-kaurenoic acid.
