Vestibular modulation by stimulant derivatives in a pentameric ligand‐gated ion channel
Background and Purpose Allosteric modulation of pentameric ligand‐gated ion channels (pLGICs) are critical for the action of neurotransmitters and many psychoactive drugs. However, details of their modulatory mechanisms remain unclear, especially beyond the orthosteric neurotransmitter‐binding sites. The recently reported prokaryotic symbiont of Tevnia

Summary Plant‐specific WUSCHEL‐related homeobox (Wox) transcription factors (TFs) are crucial for plant growth and development. However, the molecular mechanism of Wox‐mediated regulation of thousand kernel weight (TKW) in crops remains elusive. In this research, we identified a major TKW‐associated quantitative trait locus (QTL) on wheat chromosome ...

Combined effect of drying conditions and starch composition on breadmaking ability of sour cassava starch [PDF]
This work fits into the context of understanding contribution of determinant factors to predict breadmaking ability of sour starch. The breadmaking ability is determined by molecular mechanism of starch degradation but, to date, is not fully elucidated ...

Unique starch biosynthesis pathways in wild rice revealed by multi‐omics analyses
Summary Australian wild rice species (AWS) possess unique starch properties characterized by a slow digestibility rate. However, the genomic and transcriptomic variations of starch‐synthesis‐related genes (SSRGs) influencing starch physiochemical properties in AWS remain unclear.

Elucidating the enzyme network driving Amaryllidaceae alkaloids biosynthesis in Leucojum aestivum
Schematic representation of Amaryllidaceae alkaloid biosynthesis in Leucojum aestivum. Norbelladine synthase (LaNBS) and noroxomaritidine/norcraugsodine reductase (LaNRII) catalyze the condensation of tyramine and 3,4‐dihydroxybenzaldehyde to form norbelladine, which is subsequently O‐methylated by norbelladine‐4′‐O‐methyltransferase (LaN4′OMT ...

TaFT‐D1 positively regulates grain weight by acting as a coactivator of TaFDL2 in wheat
Summary FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT), a multifunctional regulator in crops, modulates multiple key agronomic traits such as flowering time or heading date and plant height; however, its role in grain development regulation is unclear. Herein, through genome‐wide association studies (GWAS), we identified TaFT‐D1, which encodes a phosphatidylethanolamine ...
