Expression, Localization and Function of a cis-Prenyltransferase in the Tapetum and Microspores of Lily Anthers

open access: yes, 2014
The cis-prenyltransferase gene LLA66 (Lilium longiflorum anther-66), the first prenyltransferase to be identified in the tapetum and microspores, was selected from a suppression subtractive cDNA library during microspore development in the anther of L ...

The African swine fever virus prenyltransferase is an integral membrane trans-geranylgeranyl-diphosphate synthase

open access: yes, 2022
In a previous study, it was shown that the protein encoded by the gene B318L of African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a trans-prenyltransferase that catalyzesin vitro the condensation of farnesyl diphosphate and isopentenyl diphosphate to synthesize ...

Fruit respiration: putting alternative pathways into perspective

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 54-73, April 2026.
Summary Over the past century, research has significantly advanced our understanding of fruit respiration, from (eco)physiological processes to molecular mechanisms. This review focuses on the functional relevance and regulatory roles of mitochondrial alternative respiratory pathways (ARPs) during fruit growth and ripening.

UBIAD1 mutation alters a mitochondrial prenyltransferase to cause Schnyder corneal dystrophy.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundMutations in a novel gene, UBIAD1, were recently found to cause the autosomal dominant eye disease Schnyder corneal dystrophy (SCD). SCD is characterized by an abnormal deposition of cholesterol and phospholipids in the cornea resulting in ...

Analysis of prenyltransferase gene expression in Pseudo-nitzschia multiseries

open access: yes, 2019
Domoic acid is a potent neurotoxin produced by the genus Pseudo-nitzschia. It is responsible for causing amnesic shellfish poisoning, a condition capable of devastating marine wildlife and humans with severe neurological complications once ingested. Much
