Abstract: Sucrose Synthase(SuSy) plays an important role in plant growth and development. Photosynthates transported into storage tissues are mainly in the form of sucrose in higher plants, but Sucrose Synthase is an exclusive necessary enzyme in the pathway of sucrose metabolism. In this article, the physiological functions, gene expression and regulation, gene cloning and transgenic plants of sucrose synthase were introduced. The further research was also discussed.
