Identification and characterisation of microRNAs and their target genes in phosphate-starved Nicotiana benthamiana by small RNA deep sequencing and 5’RACE analysis

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Phosphorus is an important macronutrient that is severely lacking in soils. In plants, specific microRNAs (miRNAs) essential for nutrient management and the regulation of stress responses are responsible for the control of many phosphate ...

Sugarcane Mosaic Virus-Based Gene Silencing in Nicotiana benthamiana [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Biotechnology, 2017
Background: Potyvirus-based virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is used for knocking down the expression of a target gene in numerous plant species. Sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) is a monopartite, positive single strand RNA virus. Objectives: pBINTRA6 vector was modifi ed by inserting a gene segment of SCMV in place of Tobacco rattle virus (TRV) genome

Miltiradiene Production by Cytoplasmic Metabolic Engineering in Nicotiana benthamiana

Metabolites, 2023
Plant natural products are important sources of innovative drugs, but the extraction and isolation of medicinal natural products from plants is challenging as these compounds have complex structures that are difficult to synthesize chemically. Therefore, utilizing heterologous expression systems to produce medicinal natural products in plants is a ...

A Virus‐Inducible E3–RLCK–MADS Module Coordinates Suppression of Plant Immunity and Fertility in Rice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Viruses often hijack host developmental programs to promote infection, but the mechanistic links between reproductive regulation and antiviral immunity remain incompletely understood. Here, we identify a virus‐triggered hierarchical degradation cascade that links antiviral immunity and fertility regulation in rice. We show that the rice grassy

Tunable control of insect pheromone biosynthesis inNicotiana benthamiana

Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2022
SummaryPrevious work has demonstrated that plants can be used as production platforms for molecules used in health, medicine, and agriculture. Production has been exemplified in both stable transgenic plants and using transient expression strategies.

SERRATE Regulates Floral Meristem Activity by Antagonizing SHOOT MERISTEMLESS and Repressing Cytokinin Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Floral meristem (FM) activity is crucial for the initiation of floral organs. In this study, SE represses IPT7 expression and cytokinin signaling via both the miR171c‐5p–KNAT2 and miR164c–CUC1/2–KNAT2 regulatory modules, thereby repressing FM activity. In contrast, STM induces both KNAT2 and IPT7 expression.

Plant-produced recombinant Osteopontin-Fc fusion protein enhanced osteogenesis

Biotechnology Reports, 2019
Osteopontin (OPN) plays an important role in the bone regeneration process. Previous investigation showed that recombinant human OPN was able to express in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves and induced the osteogenic related genes.

Transposase‐Assisted Donor Tethering Boosts Large‐Fragment HDR in Plants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A transposase‐assisted donor tethering strategy is developed to enhance homology‐directed repair in plants. By recruiting donor DNA to double‐strand breaks and synergizing with repair pathway reprogramming and transcription‐coupled donor design, this system markedly improves large‐fragment targeted insertion efficiency, providing a robust platform for ...
