One pattern analysis (OPA) for the quantitative determination of protein interactions in plant cells

Plant Methods, 2023
Background A commonly used approach to study the interaction of two proteins of interest (POIs) in vivo is measuring Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET). This requires the expression of the two POIs fused to two fluorescent proteins that function as

New MADS-box gene in fern: cloning and expression analysis of DfMADS1 from Dryopteris fragrans. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
MADS genes encode a family of transcription factors, some of which control the identities of floral organs in flowering plants. Most of the MADS-box genes in fern have been cloned and analyzed in model plants, such as Ceratopteris richardii and ...

Evolutionary divergence of motifs in B-class MADS-box proteins of seed plants

Journal of Biological Research - Thessaloniki, 2021
Background MADS-box transcription factors function as homo- or heterodimers and regulate many aspects of plant development; moreover, MADS-box genes have undergone extensive duplication and divergence.

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of the MADS-Box Gene Family in Sweet Potato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
MADS-box gene, one of the largest transcription factor families in plants, is a class of transcription factors widely present in eukaryotes. It plays an important role in plant growth and development and participates in the growth and development of ...

Sequence motifs in MADS transcription factors responsible for specificity and diversification of protein-protein interaction. [PDF]

PLoS Computational Biology, 2010
Protein sequences encompass tertiary structures and contain information about specific molecular interactions, which in turn determine biological functions of proteins.

Structural Basis for Plant MADS Transcription Factor Oligomerization

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2019
MADS transcription factors (TFs) are DNA binding proteins found in almost all eukaryotes that play essential roles in diverse biological processes. While present in animals and fungi as a small TF family, the family has dramatically expanded in plants ...

Predicting the impact of alternative splicing on plant MADS domain protein function. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
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.

Overexpression of a pear B-class MADS-box gene in tomato causes male sterility

Fruit Research, 2023
B-class MADS-box genes are sufficient for the specification of petals and stamens; however, the role of Tomato MADS-box protein 6 (TM6) in seed formation in pear remains largely unknown.

Tagging of MADS domain proteins for chromatin immunoprecipitation

BMC Plant Biology, 2007
Background Most transcription factors fulfill their role in complexes and regulate their target genes upon binding to DNA motifs located in upstream regions or introns.
