Sweet Potato Gene Clusters Control Anthocyanin Biosynthesis and Leaf Morphology

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 4500-4527, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) exhibits diversity in pigmentation and leaf morphology, yet the genetic architecture and regulatory organisation underlying these traits remain poorly resolved, particularly with respect to organ‐specific control.

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

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 4640-4655, July 2026.
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.

Hexokinase 1 facilitates post‐germinative seedling growth through its catalytic function

The Plant Journal, Volume 127, Issue 1, July 2026.
SUMMARY In darkness or dim light PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTORS (PIFs) induce skotomorphogenic seedling growth, which is exemplified by elongated hypocotyls. Likewise, HEXOKINASE1 (HXK1) has been reported to promote hypocotyl growth under light and nutrient limiting conditions.

A single amino acid can determine the DNA binding specificity of homeodomain proteins [PDF]

Many Drosophila developmental genes contain a DNA binding domain encoded by the homeobox. This homeodomain contains a region distantly homologous to the helix-turn-helix motif present in several prokaryotic DNA binding proteins.

Influenza‐induced tuft cell expansion is associated with changes in ILC2 populations in the distal lungs of mice

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 13, July 2026.
Abstract Tuft cells act as sentinels that amplify type 2 inflammation primarily by activating type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s). Although normally absent from the distal lung, ectopic tuft cells form after severe lung injury including influenza infection in mice.

The homeodomain-containing proteins: an update on their interacting partners.

Biochemical pharmacology, 1999
Homeodomain-containing proteins are transcription regulators controlling the coordinated expression of genes involved in development, differentiation, and cellular transformation. They share a highly conserved 60-amino-acid region (the "homeodomain"), which allows them to bind DNA and modulate the expression of multiple target genes, whose identities ...

Expression and localization of homeodomain proteins DLX4, HB9 and HB24 in malignant and benign human colorectal tissues [PDF]

, 2004
BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to identify homeobox genes expressed in the human colon and to determine whether their expression levels were altered between matched non-malignant and malignant colon tissues.Materials and methodsHomeobox genes ...

Relief of bHD1 autoinhibition and modular coupling support MAT-A pathway activation in Flammulina filiformis

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology
Flammulina filiformis is a commercially important edible mushroom whose sexual compatibility is determined by genes at two unlinked mating-type loci, A and B. However, the molecular basis of MAT-A activation in this species remains unclear.
