Three Decades of China's Bt Cotton: Achievements and Insights

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cotton is a vital natural fibre crop with significant economic value worldwide. In response to the threat of cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera), the China government initiated a research project in 1992 to develop transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton.

Functional Characterisation of HAIRPLUS (NtHAP) Genes Involved in Trichome Development and Specialised Metabolism of Tobacco

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant glandular trichomes are specialised epidermal structures capable of synthesising, storing and secreting numerous varieties of secondary metabolites in different classes and are central to plant defence and the biosynthesis of high‐value metabolites.

Designed Alleles of ZmRap2.7 Decouple the Trade‐Off Between Early Flowering and Yield Penalty

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flowering time genes often exhibit pleiotropic effects. In particular, early flowering is frequently associated with reduced grain yield due to a shorter growth period. This trade‐off poses a major challenge for developing early‐maturing and high‐yielding varieties, a key breeding objective in modern maize production. Here, we demonstrate that

Identification of a Susceptibility Gene for Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae in Vietnamese Elite Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Cultivar Bacthom 7

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is the causal agent of bacterial leaf blight (BLB) disease in rice, exerting a detrimental impact on the yield of various rice cultivars in Vietnam, notably the Bacthom 7 (BT7) variety. Xoo possesses transcription activator‐like effectors (TALEs) which modulate the expression of host genes by specifically ...

ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters in Bacteria

Annual Review of Biochemistry, 2004
▪ Abstract  ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters couple ATP hydrolysis to the uptake and efflux of solutes across the cell membrane in bacteria and eukaryotic cells. In bacteria, these transporters are important virulence factors because they play roles in nutrient uptake and in secretion of toxins and antimicrobial agents. In humans, many diseases,

ATP‐binding cassette transporters in liver

BioFactors, 2013
AbstractThe human ATP‐binding cassette (ABC) superfamily consists of 48 members with 14 of them identified in normal human liver at the protein level. Most of the ABC members act as ATP dependent efflux transport systems. In the liver, ABC transporters are involved in diverse physiological processes including export of cholesterol, bile salts, and ...

Plant ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters

Annual Review of Plant Biology, 2007
The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) protein superfamily is one of the largest known, with over 120 members in both Arabidopsis thaliana and rice (Oryza sativa). Most, but not all, ABC proteins are modularly organized membrane proteins (“ABC transporters”) that mediate MgATP-energized transmembrane transport and/or regulate other transporters.

ATP-binding cassette transporters and neurodegenerative diseases

Essays in Biochemistry, 2021
Abstract ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are one of the largest groups of transporter families in humans. ABC transporters mediate the translocation of a diverse range of substrates across cellular membranes, including amino acids, nucleosides, lipids, sugars and xenobiotics.

ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters in the Heart

Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2006
Members of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) protein superfamily are integral membrane proteins involved in energy-dependent transport of a wide variety of substrates across biologic membranes. ATP-binding cassette transporters serve as functional barriers against the entry of xenobiotics, for example, in the intestine or at the blood-brain barrier, or ...

ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters in atherosclerosis

Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2002
Macrophages play a central role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerotic lesions. In the nascent lesion, macrophages transform into foam cells through the excessive accumulation of cholesteryl esters. Dysfunctional lipid homeostasis in macrophages and foam cells ultimately results in the breakdown of membrane integrity and cell death ...
