Abstract Drought stress in plants causes differential expression of numerous genes. One of these differentially expressed genes in rice is a specific amidohydrolase. We characterized this amidohydrolase gene on the rice chromosome 12 as the first plant guanine deaminase (OsGDA1). The biochemical activity of GDA is known from tea and coffee plants where

Differentially expressed microRNAs that target functional genes in mature soybean nodules
Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of biological functions in plants. To find out what roles miRNAs play in regulating symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF) in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], we identified high‐confidence differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs from uninoculated roots (UR), rhizobium‐inoculated roots (IR), and nodules ...

The Transcriptome of Fusarium graminearum During the Infection of Wheat
Fusarium graminearum causes head blight disease in wheat and barley. To help understand the infection process on wheat, we studied global gene expression of F. graminearum in a time series from 24 to 196 h after inoculation, compared with a noninoculated

Xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) is an important enzyme in purine metabolism. It is involved in regulation of the normal growth and non-biological stress-induced ageing processes in plants.

The Basic Proteins of Bovine Allantoic Fluid [PDF]
This paper reports the separation of highly cationic proteins (i.e. pI greater than 9.0) of bovine allantoic fluid and their possible pathogenic properties. Experimentally, polycations and cationic proteins of pI greater than 10 induced intravascular coagulation and hemolysis, as well as precipitation of fibrinogen and proteinuria.

Allantoate amidohydrolases (AAHs) hydrolize the ureide allantoate to ureidoglycolate, CO(2), and two molecules of ammonium. Allantoate degradation is required to recycle purine-ring nitrogen in all plants.

Regulation of Allantoin and Allantoic Acid Degradation in the Yam and Sweet Potato
In the regulation of allantoin and allantoic acid degradation in root tubers, allantoic acid is the substrate for allantoicase and allantoate amidohydrolase while allantoin is the substrate for allantoinase.

Study of the Murine Allantois by Allantoic Explants
The murine allantois will become the umbilical artery and vein of the chorioallantoic placenta. In previous studies, growth and differentiation of the allantois had been elucidated in whole embryos. In this study, the extent to which explanted allantoises grow and differentiate outside of the conceptus was investigated.

ABSTRACT Soybean is a critical source of protein and vegetable oil worldwide. Expanding its cultivation into salinity lands represents a promising strategy for increasing production; however, soil salinity severely limits soybean growth by disrupting physiological and metabolic homeostasis.

Metabolic Origin, Role and Fate of the Denaturant Guanidine
The origin of metabolic guanidine is largely a mystery. We suggest it is created when guanine‐containing nucleotides are oxidised by molecular oxygen instead of being broken down into urea as purines normally would. Guanidine may act as a signal to help cells control the level of reactive oxygen species.
