Abstract
The phosphoenolpyruvate transporter (PPT) is one of several important trans porters for channelling carbon intermediates utilized for fatty acid synthe sis and other plastidial pathways from the cytosol into the plastid, In thi s paper we show results on how the activity of the PPT changes between two important, physiologically different developmental stages of oilseed rape e mbryos.
