Disease Tolerance in ‘Anaheim’ Pepper to PepGMV-D Strain Involves Complex Interactions Between the Movement Protein Putative Promoter Region and Unknown Host Factors

Viruses
Pepper golden mosaic virus (PepGMV) is a bipartite begomovirus of pepper and tomato from North America. In ‘Anaheim’ pepper plants PepGMV-Mo strain (Mo) causes systemic yellow foliar mosaic symptoms, while PepGMV-D strain (D) causes distortion of 1st–6th

Manipulating plant RNA-silencing pathways to improve the gene editing efficiency of CRISPR/Cas9 systems

Genome Biology, 2018
Background The CRISPR/Cas9 system, composed of a single-guide RNA for target recognition and a Cas9 protein for DNA cleavage, has the potential to revolutionize agriculture as well as medicine. Even though extensive work has been done to improve the gene

ATXR5 and ATXR6 are H3K27 monomethyltransferases required for chromatin structure and gene silencing. [PDF]

, 2009
Constitutive heterochromatin in Arabidopsis thaliana is marked by repressive chromatin modifications, including DNA methylation, histone H3 dimethylation at Lys9 (H3K9me2) and monomethylation at Lys27 (H3K27me1).

FGFR Like1 drives esophageal cancer progression via EMT, PI3K/Akt, and notch signalling: insights from clinical data and next‐generation sequencing analysis

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Clinical analysis reveals significant dysregulation of FGFRL1 in esophageal cancer (EC) patients. RNAi‐coupled next‐generation sequencing (NGS) and in vitro study reveal FGFRL1‐mediated EC progression via EMT, PI3K/Akt, and Notch pathways. Functional assays confirm its role in tumor growth, migration, and invasion.

Transgene silencing and transgene-derived siRNA production in tobacco plants homozygous for an introduced AtMYB90 construct [PDF]

, 2015
Transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) lines were engineered to ectopically over-express AtMYB90 (PAP2), an R2-R3 Myb gene associated with regulation of anthocyanin production in Arabidopsis thaliana. Independently transformed transgenic lines, Myb27 and

KLK7 overexpression promotes an aggressive phenotype and facilitates peritoneal dissemination in colorectal cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...

Coordinated actions of microRNAs with other epigenetic factors regulate skeletal muscle development and adaptation [PDF]

, 2017
Epigenetics plays a pivotal role in regulating gene expression in development, in response to cellular stress or in disease states, in virtually all cell types.

Domain associated with zinc fingers‐containing NF90‐NF45 complex inhibits m6A modification of primary microRNA by suppressing METTL3/14 activity

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
NF90–NF45 functions as a negative regulator of methyltransferase‐like 3/14 (METTL3/14)‐mediated N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) modification on primary microRNAs (pri‐miRNAs). NF90–NF45 binds to anti‐oncogenic pri‐miRNAs and inhibits their m6A modification, thereby suppressing the biogenesis of anti‐oncogenic miRNAs.

RNA silencing of South African cassava mosaic virus in transgenic cassava expressing AC1/AC4 hp- RNA induces tolerance

Biotechnology Reports, 2019
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD), caused by geminiviruses, is a major hurdle to cassava production. Due to the heterozygous nature of cassava, breeding for virus resistance is difficult, but cassava has been shown to be a good candidate for genetic ...
