Tomato prosystemin gene in other Solanaceae [PDF]

, 2009
Systemin, an octadeca-peptide isolated from tomato, is a signalling molecule involved in local and systemic wound response. It regulates the activation of more than twenty defensive genes in tomato plants in response to herbivore attacks.

Simultaneous modification of Thermotoga maritima encapsulin subunits to produce multivalent nanoparticle vaccines for non‐typhoidal Salmonella enterica

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study investigates the modularity of encapsulin—a protein nanoparticle—by simultaneously inserting up to four distinct Salmonella epitopes within the encapsulin subunit. The encapsulin variants were transiently expressed in plants where they assembled into nanoparticles; however, their accumulation and stability varied depending on the ...

Virus-induced gene silencing database for phenomics and functional genomics in Nicotiana benthamiana [PDF]

, 2018
Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is an important forward and reverse genetics method for the study of gene function in many plant species, especially Nicotiana benthamiana.

Toward understanding the catalytic mechanism for two classes of bacterial phospholipid N‐methyltransferases

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Phospholipid N‐methyltransferases (Pmts) synthesize phosphatidylcholine in many bacteria. In this study, we compared the catalytic mechanisms of two bacterial Pmt classes: the Rhodobacter (R‐) and the Sinorhizobium (S‐) type. Representative enzymes for each class were derived from Rubellimicrobium thermophilum and Agrobacterium tumefaciens ...

Coupling of both a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain boosts Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine editing in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Fusions of a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain produced effective Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine base editors, with improved C‐to‐T and A‐to‐G base editing efficiency and expanded editing window. Generated herbicide‐resistant rice germplasm by using these base editors demonstrates their potential for precise ...

Enhanced exonuclease–Cas9 systems promote multiple nucleotide deletions with higher efficiency and broader targeting scope in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Cas9 preferentially generates small indels. By tethering an exonuclease and a DNA‐binding domain (DBD) to Cas9, the Exo‐DBD‐Cas9 system efficiently promotes multiple nucleotide deletions. These expanded deletions enable effective disruption of miRNA‐mediated regulation and relieve translational repression through targeted editing of 3′ untranslated ...

The GmGT‐2F, a trihelix transcription factor, regulates seed oil content by directly activating GmAGAL transcription in soybean

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In soybean, the trihelix transcription factor GmGT‐2F positively regulates the expression of the α‐galactosidase gene GmAGAL, thereby modulating seed oil content. The cyclophilin GmCYP2 interacts with GmGT‐2F and suppresses GmAGAL activation. Haplotype diversity analysis of GmGT‐2F, GmCYP2, and GmAGAL identified favorable haplotype combinations ...

OsFKBP20‐1b stabilizes OsUPF1 and OsUPF2 to promote the degradation of aberrant mRNAs during dehydration stress

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The rice protein OsFKBP20‐1b protects key RNA‐surveillance factors from breakdown, so they can better eliminate defective messages. This RNA quality‐control boost reduces errors and helps plants survive drought, revealing a link between RNA control and drought tolerance.

Inhibition of Agrobacterium-Induced Cell Death by Antiapoptotic Gene Expression Leads to Very High Transformation Efficiency of Banana

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2007
The death of plant cells in culture following exposure to Agrobacterium tumefaciens remains a major obstacle in developing Agrobacterium-mediated transformation into a highly efficient genotype-independent technology.
