The 4CL activity of putative versions of Zm4CL1 isolated from bm5-504J mutant. a Two domains of Zm4CL1 were labeled. Image was generated using open-source SMART (http://smart.embl-heidelberg.de/). b SDS-PAGE analysis of recombinant Zm4CL1, Zm4CL1-L, and Zm4CL1-S proteins. S and I indicated soluble and insoluble proteins from lysate of E. coli cultures. The arrows showed the recombinant proteins. c HPLC analysis of recombinant Zm4CL1 activity against ferulate. d HPLC analysis of recombinant Zm4CL1-L activity against ferulate
