Analyses of Old Prokaryotic Proteins Indicate Functional Diversification in Arabidopsis and Oryza sativa

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
During evolution, various processes such as duplication, divergence, recombination and many other events leads to the evolution of new genes with novel functions.

Dynamic changes in ANGUSTIFOLIA3 complex composition reveal a growth regulatory mechanism in the maize leaf [PDF]

, 2015
Most molecular processes during plant development occur with a particular spatio-temporal specificity. Thus far, it has remained technically challenging to capture dynamic protein-protein interactions within a growing organ, where the interplay between ...

Sequence-specific protein aggregation generates defined protein knockdowns in plants [PDF]

, 2016
Protein aggregation is determined by short (5-15 amino acids) aggregation-prone regions (APRs) of the polypeptide sequence that self-associate in a specific manner to form beta-structured inclusions.

Methylated DNA-Binding Proteins from Arabidopsis [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2003
Abstract The 5-methylcytosines (m5C) play a critical role in epigenetic control, often being recognized by proteins containing a methyl-CpG-binding domain (MBD). Database screening has identified at least 12 putative methyl-CpG-binding proteins from Arabidopsis; we have isolated corresponding cDNAs for seven of them. Despite variation in

The WD-repeat protein superfamily in Arabidopsis: conservation and divergence in structure and function

BMC Genomics, 2003
Background The WD motif (also known as the Trp-Asp or WD40 motif) is found in a multitude of eukaryotic proteins involved in a variety of cellular processes.

B-Function Expression in the Flower Center Underlies the Homeotic Phenotype of Lacandonia schismatica (Triuridaceae) [PDF]

, 2010
Spontaneous homeotic transformations have been described in natural populations of both plants and animals, but little is known about the molecular-genetic mechanisms underlying these processes in plants.

AtPIN: Arabidopsis thaliana Protein Interaction Network [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics, 2009
Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) constitute one of the most crucial conditions to sustain life in living organisms. To study PPI in Arabidopsis thaliana we have developed AtPIN, a database and web interface for searching and building interaction networks based on publicly available protein-protein interaction datasets.All interactions were divided ...

GAP activity, but not subcellular targeting, is required for Arabidopsis RanGAP cellular and developmental functions [PDF]

, 2015
The Ran GTPase activating protein (RanGAP) is important to Ran signaling involved in nucleocytoplasmic transport, spindle organization, and postmitotic nuclear assembly.

Structural and Functional Diversity of CLAVATA3/ESR (CLE)-Like Genes from the Potato Cyst Nematode Globodera rostochiensis

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2009
Plant CLAVATA3/ESR-related (CLE) peptides have diverse roles in plant growth and development. Here, we report the isolation and functional characterization of five new CLE genes from the potato cyst nematode Globodera rostochiensis.

In vivo imaging of the tonoplast intrinsic protein family in Arabidopsis roots [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs) are widely used as markers for vacuolar compartments in higher plants. Ten TIP isoforms are encoded by the Arabidopsis genome.
