A full-length cDNA clone, pMGDH1, encoding maize NADH-glutamate dehydrogenase (NADH-GDH) was isolated from a maize root cDNA library. The identity of the cDNA was established by the coincidence of the structure of the purified protein with that inferred from the nucleotide sequence of the cDNA. pMGD...
