Activating glutamate decarboxylase activity by removing the autoinhibitory domain leads to hyper γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) accumulation in tomato fruit [PDF]
, 2017 γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a ubiquitous non-protein amino acid with several health-promoting benefits. In many plants including tomato, GABA is synthesized via decarboxylation of glutamate in a reaction catalyzed by glutamate decarboxylase (GAD ...

In Vivo Cytoskeletal AMPA Receptor Transport Imaging in C. elegans
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Long‐distance intracellular transport of ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) is essential for proper excitatory synaptic function underlying learning and memory. Many neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative conditions have abnormal iGluR transport and trafficking, leading to an intense interest in the mechanisms and factors regulating these

Physiological and biochemical responses of photomorphogenic tomato mutants (cv. Micro-Tom) under water withholding [PDF]
Acta Physiologiae Plantarum, 2016 In addition to mediating photomorphogenesis, phytochromes are responsible for many abiotic stress responses, acting upon biochemical and molecular mechanisms of cell signaling. In this work, we measured the physiological and biochemical responses of phytochrome-mutant plants under water stress. In tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.), the aurea mutant (au)

Tapping into the maize root microbiome to identify bacteria that promote growth under chilling conditions [PDF]
, 2020 Background When maize (Zea mays L.) is grown in the Northern hemisphere, its development is heavily arrested by chilling temperatures, especially at the juvenile phase. As some endophytes are beneficial for plants under stress conditions, we analyzed the

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.Although fresh produce is extremely perishable and contaminated, it is essential for good health. To eliminate important foodborne pathogens, this paper investigates UV‐C irradiation as a safe, nonthermal technique. UV dose, exposure duration, and product characteristics all affect effectiveness.

Overexpression of Pear (Pyrus pyrifolia) CAD2 in Tomato Affects Lignin Content
Molecules, 2019 PpCAD2 was originally isolated from the ‘Wangkumbae’ pear (Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai), and it encodes for cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD), which is a key enzyme in the lignin biosynthesis pathway.
