Biography
Susanne Kohalmi, PhD Associate Professor, Gene Families and Regulation, of Department of Biology at the University of Western Ontario, Canada.
Research Interest
To study regulatory events in plants we chose as a model system the arogenate dehydratase family (ADTs) in Arabidopsis thaliana. In Arabidopsis there are six members in the ADT family and these enzymes catalyze the last step in the synthesis of phenylalanine.
