From A. rhizogenes RolD to Plant P5CS: Exploiting Proline to Control Plant Development [PDF]
, 2018 The capability of the soil bacterium Agrobacterium rhizogenes to reprogram plant development and induce adventitious hairy roots relies on the expression of a few root-inducing genes (rol A, B, C and D), which can be transferred from large virulence ...

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.Abscisic acid signaling homeostasis is essential for seed storability. The molecular chaperone OsCPN10a enhances rice seed storability by forming a trimeric chaperone complex with OsCPN20‐OsHSP60‐3B that attenuates abscisic acid signaling via direct interaction with OsPYL10‐OsABIL1, thereby maintaining starch integrity and offering a promising target ...

Redox Activity of the Mini-αA-crystallin–Cu(II) Complex and Its Biological Relevance
International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2015 Cu(II) has been known to be a redox-active metal whose complexes with proteins/peptides have been linked to oxidative stress in many diseases. Oxidative stress and Cu(II) are also known to induce the expression of the small heat shock proteins α ...

Expression of the gene for main intrinsic polypeptide (MIP): separate spatial distributions of MIP and beta-crystallin gene transcripts in rat lens development [PDF]
, 1988 The main intrinsic polypeptide (MIP) is the major protein present in the lens fiber cell membrane and is the product of a gene which, as far as is known, is expressed only in the lens.

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding Neotropical megadiversity remains challenging due to fundamental taxonomic issues, including identifying and describing cryptic species and their distribution, and the limited knowledge of key factors driving biological diversification. Such challenges are especially prominent in diverse clades with high levels of cryptic species,

Ca2+ binding enhanced mechanical stability of an archaeal crystallin. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Structural topology plays an important role in protein mechanical stability. Proteins with β-sandwich topology consisting of Greek key structural motifs, for example, I27 of muscle titin and (10)FNIII of fibronectin, are mechanically resistant as shown ...

Staling Behavior of Chickpea‐Enriched Bread: A Dynamic Mechanical Analysis Approach
Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Bread is a staple food widely consumed worldwide and therefore represents an excellent vehicle for increasing nutrient intake. In this context, the incorporation of chickpea flour into bread offers promising nutritional benefits; however, its impact on bread technological quality remains underexplored. This study investigated staling phenomena
