Identification and characterisation of the Arabidopsis thaliana cell wall proteome: unravelling novel cell wall proteins and new potential functions of the plant extracellular matrix [PDF]
The application of the proteomic approach has facilitated efforts directed toward the mapping of the entire Arabidopsis cell wall proteome. Proteins were sequentially extracted from purified cell walls using 0.2 M CaC1(_2) followed by a urea buffer.

Receptor-like kinases and pathogen-associated molecular patterns perception in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Comparable to the innate immune response in mammals and insects, plants possess highly specific and sensitive recognition systems for pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), such as bacterial flagellin.

Isolation and characterization of the KNAT6 homeobox gene in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Class 1 KNOX genes have been demonstrated to play roles in the maintenance of the shoot apical merlstem in a variety of plant species. Although the shoot and root systems differ in the way in which lateral organs are initiated, it was proposed that KNOX ...

Mutations of PDS5 genes enhance TAD-like domain formation in Arabidopsis thaliana
In eukaryotes, topologically associating domains (TADs) organize the genome into functional compartments. While TAD-like structures are common in mammals and many plants, they are challenging to detect in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Genomic Survey and Expression Profiling of the MYB Gene Family in Watermelon
Myeloblastosis (MYB) proteins constitute one of the largest transcription factor (TF) families in plants. They are functionally diverse in regulating plant development, metabolism, and multiple stress responses.

Transmembrane domain length is responsible for the ability of a plant reticulon to shape endoplasmic reticulum tubules in vivo [PDF]
Reticulons are integral endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane proteins that have the ability to shape the ER into tubules. It has been hypothesized that their unusually long conserved hydrophobic regions cause reticulons to assume a wedge-like topology ...

Phylogenetic relationships between Arabidopsis and sugarcane bZIP transcriptional regulatory factors
We built a complete and non-redundant database of bZIP transcriptional regulatory factors from the Arabidopsis reference genome. These Arabidopsis bZIP factors were ordered into thirteen families of evolutionary related proteins and this classification ...

The interplay between a Phytophthora RXLR effector and an Arabidopsis lectin receptor kinase [PDF]
Phytophthora infestans – the causal agent of potato late blight – secretes a plethora of effector proteins to facilitate plant infection. The central subject of this thesis is ipiO, one of the first cloned Phytophthora genes with a putative function in ...
