A jasmonate-inducible defense trait transferred from wild into cultivated tomato establishes increased whitefly resistance and reduced viral disease incidence [PDF]
, 2016 Whiteflies damage tomatoes mostly via the viruses they transmit. Cultivated tomatoes lack many of the resistances of their wild relatives. In order to increase protection to its major pest, the whitefly Bemisia tabaci and its transmitted Tomato Yellow ...

The effect of mucA allele on biofilm architecture and the biofilm-related proteomes [PDF]
, 2013 In this study, a unique mucA mutation (designated mucA56) was introduced, which was characterized by deletion of bases 166-333, encoding MucA56 protein with the deletion of the trans-membrane region, which then was proved to be cytoplasmic with phoA-mucA

Molecular Mechanism of Polysaccharide Acetylation by the Arabidopsis Xylan O-acetyltransferase XOAT1
The Plant Cell, 2020 Structural and biochemical analysis of xylan O-acetyltransferase 1 (XOAT1) show that XOAT1 catalyzes xylan acetylation through formation of an acyl-enzyme intermediate via a double displacement bi-bi mechanism.

The relative abundance of APOE and Aβ1-42 associated with abnormal prion protein differs between Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease subtypes [PDF]
, 2016 Aggregated and protease-resistant mammalian prion protein (PrPSc) is the primary protein component of infectious prions. Enriched PrPSc preparations are often used to study the mechanisms that underly prion disease.
