MicroRNA regulation of gene expression in plants
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2004It has only been a few years since we began to appreciate that microRNAs provide an unanticipated level of gene regulation in both plants and metazoans. The high level of complementarity between plant microRNAs and their target mRNAs has allowed rapid progress towards the elucidation of their varied biological functions.

Translational regulation of gene expression in plants
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1997Translational regulation plays a major role in plant gene expression. Recent advances have been made in understanding how this mechanism of control is directed in the chloroplast as well as in the cytoplasm. Our knowledge of translational regulation in plant mitochondria, however, is limited.

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-

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

Alternative polyadenylation and gene expression regulation in plants
WIREs RNA, 2010Abstract Functioning 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 ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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.
