Exogenous RNAs for Gene Regulation and Plant Resistance [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Recent investigations documented that plants can uptake and process externally applied double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs), hairpin RNAs (hpRNAs), and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) designed to silence important genes of plant pathogenic viruses, fungi, or insects.

Small Sized Yet Powerful: Nuclear Distribution C Proteins in Plants

Plants, 2023
The family of Nuclear Distribution C (NudC) proteins plays a pivotal and evolutionarily conserved role in all eukaryotes. In animal systems, these proteins influence vital cellular processes like cell division, protein folding, nuclear migration and ...

Hidden prevalence of deletion-inversion bi-alleles in CRISPR-mediated deletions of tandemly arrayed genes in plants

Nature Communications, 2023
Tandemly arrayed genes (TAGs) with functional redundancy and chromosomal linkage constitute 14 ~ 35% in sequenced plant genomes. The multiplex CRISPR system is the tool of choice for creating targeted TAG deletions.

Toward learning the principles of plant gene regulation [PDF]

Trends in Plant Science, 2022
Advanced machine learning (ML) algorithms produce highly accurate models of gene expression, uncovering novel regulatory features in nucleotide sequences involving multiple cis-regulatory regions across whole genes and structural properties. These broaden our understanding of gene regulation and point to new principles to test and adopt in the field of

Fiber Cell-Specific Expression of the VP16-Fused Ethylene Response Factor 41 Protein Increases Biomass Yield and Alters Lignin Composition

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Arabidopsis thaliana transcription factors belonging to the ERFIIId and ERFIIIe subclade (ERFIIId/e) of the APETALA 2/ethylene response factor (AP2/ERF) family enhance primary cell wall (PCW) formation.

Cryo‐Electron Tomography of Toxoplasma gondii Indicates That the Conoid Fiber May Be Derived from Microtubules

Advanced Science, 2023
Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) is the causative agent of toxoplasmosis and can infect numerous warm‐blooded animals. An improved understanding of the fine structure of this parasite can help elucidate its replication mechanism.

Developmental regulation of embryonic genes in plants [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1988
Somatic embryogenesis from cultured carrot cells progresses through successive morphogenetic stages termed globular, heart, and torpedo. To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying plant embryogenesis, we isolated two genes differentially expressed during embryo development.

Identification of enzymatic genes with the potential to reduce biomass recalcitrance through lignin manipulation in Arabidopsis

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
Background During the chemical and biochemical decomposition of lignocellulosic biomasses, lignin is highly recalcitrant. Genetic transformation of plants to qualitatively and/or quantitatively modify lignin may reduce these recalcitrant properties ...
