Predicting the Impact of Alternative Splicing on Plant MADS Domain Protein Function [PDF]
Several genome-wide studies demonstrated that alternative splicing (AS) significantly increases the transcriptome complexity in plants. However, the impact of AS on the functional diversity of proteins is difficult to assess using genome-wide approaches.

MADS-box gene AaSEP4 promotes artemisinin biosynthesis in Artemisia annua
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 The plant Artemisia annua is well known for its production of artemisinin, a sesquiterpene lactone that is an effective antimalarial compound. Although remarkable progress has been made toward understanding artemisinin biosynthesis, the effect of MADS-box family transcription factors on artemisinin biosynthesis is still poorly understood. In this study,

Characterization of an AGAMOUS-like MADS box protein, a probable constituent of flowering and fruit ripening regulatory system in banana. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The MADS-box family of genes has been shown to play a significant role in the development of reproductive organs, including dry and fleshy fruits. In this study, the molecular properties of an AGAMOUS like MADS box transcription factor in banana cultivar

A ubiquitously expressed MADS-box gene from Nicotiana tabacum
Plant Molecular Biology, 1994 Experiments in Antirrinum majus, Arabidopsis thaliana and Petunia hybrida have demonstrated that putative transcription factors of the so-called MADS-box family play an important role in determining floral organ identity. Such regulatory genes are transiently expressed in small numbers of cells in the floral apex.

Characterization of Tobacco MADS-box Genes Involved in Floral Initiation [PDF]
Plant and Cell Physiology, 2002 MADS-box genes encode regulatory factors that are involved at various stages in plant development. These genes function not only during early floral meristem identity, but also when the fate of floral organ primordia is determined in a later step. Here, we screened a floral bud cDNA library to isolate a tobacco MADS-box gene, NtMADS4, using the rice ...

A characterization of the MADS‐box gene family in maize [PDF]
The Plant Journal, 1995 SummaryStudies on distantly related dicot plant species have identified homeotic genes that specify floral meristem identity and determine the fate of floral organ primordia. Most of these genes belong to a family characterized by the presence of a structural motif, the MADS‐box, which encodes a protein domain with DNA‐binding properties. As part of an
