Mechanistic aspects and redox properties of hyperthermophilic L-proline dehydrogenase from Pyrococcus furiosus related to dimethylglycine dehydrogenase/oxidase

, 2007
Two ORFs encoding a protein related to bacterial dimethylglycine oxidase were cloned from Pyrococcus furiosus DSM 3638. The protein was expressed in Escherichia coli, purified, and shown to be a flavoprotein amine dehydrogenase.

Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

MYB Factors: Hubs of Plant Stress and Hormone Crosstalk

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT MYB transcription factors function as main regulatory hubs that integrate environmental signals with multi‐hormonal pathways to synchronize plant growth, metabolism and stress responses. This review delineates the regulatory roles of MYB in the signalling pathway of salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, ethylene and abscisic acid signalling.

Role of apoptosis-inducing factor, proline dehydrogenase, and NADPH oxidase in apoptosis and oxidative stress

, 2012
Flavoproteins catalyze a variety of reactions utilizing flavin mononucleotide or flavin adenine dinucleotide as cofactors. The oxidoreductase properties of flavoenzymes implicate them in redox homeostasis, oxidative stress, and various cellular processes,

Long‐Term Salt Exposure Reprograms the Nicotiana tabacum BY‐2 Suspension Proteome and Metabolome Toward Stabilization of the Core Metabolic Pathways, Protein Turnover Machinery Modifications, and Protective Metabolome Adjustments

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we analyzed a unique Nicotiana tabacum BY‐2 line that was gradually adapted to and subsequently maintained in 190 mM NaCl for over 15 years. Years of continuous high salinity shaped a stable “new homeostasis” in BY‐2 suspension cells. Salt‐adapted cells were smaller and formed tighter clusters. Metabolomics revealed constitutive

Enhancement of postharvest longan fruit quality through chitosan (CTS)-induced modulation of energy and proline metabolism

Scientific Reports
Chitosan (CTS), a biologically safe preservative, is crucial for post-harvest treatment of fruit and vegetables, yet its regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood. Our research on various CTS concentrations in longan fruit post-harvest showed that 1.

Weather induced physiological responses on the flowering habits of neem trees (Azadirachta indica)

Journal of Agrometeorology
Adaptability and significant economic value of the neem tree are well-known, as it can flourish in a variety of environmental conditions. While the neem seed production is highly sensitive to prevailing weather conditions during the reproductive phase ...

Transcript correlation analysis for the identification of novel plant genes involved in iron metabolism and beyond: what next?

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Transcript correlation analysis allowed the identification of several key nodes in the complex regulatory network of plant iron metabolism. Abstract Arabidopsis thaliana was the first plant genome to be fully sequenced, almost a quarter of a century ago, thanks to The Arabidopsis Genome Initiative, with contributions from scientists worldwide.
