The complex regulatory properties of the plastidial phosphorylase L80 intrinsically disordered region

Chun-Yeung Ng, Seon‐Kap Hwang, Magnus Wood…·Thomas W. Okita

The paper investigates the regulatory role of the L80 IDR in rice Pho1, showing that specific motifs control starch metabolism and flowering, while PSI regulation requires the intact IDR.
