PtrVINV2 is dispensable for cellulose synthesis but essential for salt tolerance in Populus trichocarpa Torr. and Gray

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Invertase (EC.3.2.1.26), a key enzyme in sucrose breakdown, is crucial for cellulose synthesis. However, the function of the vacuolar invertase (VINV) in woody plants remains unclear. In this study, transgenic lines of Populus trichocarpa Torr. and Gray were generated to investigate the role of PtrVINV2 in wood formation and under high salinity

Elucidating the enzyme network driving Amaryllidaceae alkaloids biosynthesis in Leucojum aestivum

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of Amaryllidaceae alkaloid biosynthesis in Leucojum aestivum. Norbelladine synthase (LaNBS) and noroxomaritidine/norcraugsodine reductase (LaNRII) catalyze the condensation of tyramine and 3,4‐dihydroxybenzaldehyde to form norbelladine, which is subsequently O‐methylated by norbelladine‐4′‐O‐methyltransferase (LaN4′OMT ...

Anticancer efficacy of biosynthesized silver nanoparticles loaded with recombinant truncated parasporin-2 protein

open access: yesScientific Reports
Bacterial toxins have received a great deal of attention in the development of cancer treatments. Parasporin-2 (PS2Aa1 or Mpp46Aa1) is a Bacillus thuringiensis parasporal protein that preferentially destroys human cancer cells while not harming normal ...

ESSENTIAL MEIOTIC ENDONUCLEASE 1 is required for chloroplast development and DNA repair in rice

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Chloroplast development is fundamental to photosynthesis and plant growth but is sensitive to environmental stress. Chloroplast development and division require genome stability and DNA repair, but the underlying mechanisms have been unclear. Using a forward genetic approach, we identified the striped‐leaf mutant k48 in the rice (Oryza sativa L.

CgABR1‐CgFAD negatively regulates the fruit neck length in citrus

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Pummelo (Citrus maxima) is a fundamental species of Citrus which contributes to most of the cultivated citrus, including sweet orange, lemon and etc. The fruit neck is a structural feature of pummelo, and a long fruit neck reduces the edible rate of the fruit.
