Chemically regulated gene expression in plants
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2003Chemically inducible systems that activate or inactivate gene expression have many potential applications in the determination of gene function and in plant biotechnology. The precise timing and control of gene expression are important aspects of chemically inducible systems. Several systems have been developed and used to analyze gene function, marker-

Alternative polyadenylation and gene expression regulation in plants
WIREs RNA, 2010AbstractFunctioning as an essential step of pre‐mRNA processing, polyadenylation has been realized in recent years to play an important regulatory role during eukaryotic gene expression. Such regulation occurs mostly through the use of alternative polyadenylation (APA) sites and generates different transcripts with altered coding capacity for proteins ...

Sugar regulation of gene expression in plants
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 1998The molecular details of sugar sensing and sugar-mediated signal transduction pathways are unclear but recent results suggest that hexokinase functions as an important plant sugar sensor in a way that is similar to that found in yeast. The use of mutants in Arabidopsis defective in specific signaling steps is of particular importance because these give

Auxin-Regulated Gene Expression in Plants
1989Publisher Summary This chapter discusses auxin-regulated gene expression in plants. There are five main types of plant hormones: auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins, abscisic acid, and ethylene. The classic effect of auxins, typified by indole acetic acid (IAA), is the regulation of plant cell growth, a process that requires extension of the cell wall ...

Plant Gene Expression, Regulation of
2006Eukaryotic genomes are much more complex than prokaryotes and plant genomes present more complexities than other eukaryotes. The continuous process of development, absence of germ-line, flexible and reversible cellular differentiation, polyploidy, and so on, are characteristic features that distinguish plant genomes from other eukaryotes.

Cold stress regulation of gene expression in plants
Trends in Plant Science, 2007Cold stress adversely affects plant growth and development. Most temperate plants acquire freezing tolerance by a process called cold acclimation. Here, we focus on recent progress in transcriptional, post-transcriptional and post-translational regulation of gene expression that is critical for cold acclimation.

Regulation of gene expression in chloroplasts of higher plants
Plant Molecular Biology, 1996Chloroplasts contain their own genetic system which has a number of prokaryotic as well as some eukaryotic features. Most chloroplast genes of higher plants are organized in clusters and are cotranscribed as polycistronic pre-RNAs which are generally processes into many shorter overlapping RNA species, each of which accumulates of steady-state RNA ...

Regulation of plant gene expression by alternative splicing
Biochemical Society Transactions, 2010AS (alternative splicing) is a post-transcriptional process which regulates gene expression through increasing protein complexity and modulating mRNA transcript levels. Regulation of AS depends on interactions between trans-acting protein factors and cis-acting signals in the pre-mRNA (precursor mRNA) transcripts, termed ‘combinatorial’ control ...

Regulation and Expression of Plant Genes in Microorganisms
1989Publisher Summary The expression of plant genes in microorganisms has been used to investigate a wide range of biological issues, including the production of plant proteins to be used either in research or commercially and the elucidation of the mechanisms of gene regulation in plants based on observations of the types of plant gene expression in ...

Regulation of plant gene expression
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1986Abstract Differential gene expression is required to establish and maintain specific developmental states in higher plants. For example, an anther has at least 11000 diverse mRNAs that are absent from the polysomes of other organ systems, and the root has at least 7000 organ-specific mRNAs.
