Cytokinin response regulator ARR16 regulates seed coat permeability in Arabidopsis natural accessions

open access: yes
International audienceThe seed coat that encases the embryo is constituted from multiple specialized-cell layers and their permeability significantly influences seed quality traits that have major agronomic impact. The regulatory mechanisms that modulate

Epigenetic silencing of the liver‐specific lncRNA LUNAR promotes liver cancer progression via NOTCH activation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...

Bacterial wilt of common bean: effect of seedborne inoculum on disease incidence and seedling vigour

open access: yes, 2012
Bacterial wilt of common bean caused by Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. flaccumfaciens is a seedborne disease. The seeds of great northern cultivar US 1140 infected by the yellow variant of the pathogen showed symptoms of yellow discolouration on the ...

Isolation of nuclear proteins from flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) seed coats for gene expression regulation studies

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2012
Background While seed biology is well characterized and numerous studies have focused on this subject over the past years, the regulation of seed coat development and metabolism is for the most part still non-elucidated.

CEACAM1 participation in breast cancer progression

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In invasive breast cancer (BC), CEACAM1 shifts from an apical to a uniform membranous/cytoplasmic pattern, or is lost, as tumors dedifferentiate, inversely tracking the Ki‐67 proliferative index. In MCF‐7 cells, only CEACAM1‐4L suppresses proliferation, repressing cell cycle and growth factor genes.

Structural aspects of dormancy in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa): Importance and possible action mechanisms of the seed coats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Two possible sources of resistance to pre-harvest sprouting were evaluated in quinoa. They showed dormancy at harvest and significant variations in dormancy level in response to environmental conditions experienced during seed development.

NAPRT loss promotes lung tumor initiation and growth through AKT signaling independently of NAD+ biosynthesis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of NAPRT promotes lung tumor initiation and growth through a noncanonical mechanism, independent of its role in NAD+ biosynthesis. Mechanistically, NAPRT depletion activates the mTORC2‐driven AKT/β‐catenin signaling axis to enhance clonogenic and invasive phenotypes. Furthermore, lung‐specific Naprt deletion significantly increases tumor burden in

A Legume Biofortification Quandary: Variability and genetic control of seed coat micronutrient accumulation in common beans

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), like many legumes, are rich in iron, zinc and certain other microelements that are generally found to be in low concentrations in cereals, other seed crops, and root or tubers and therefore are good candidates for ...

Extractable and non-extractable bound phenolic compositions and their antioxidant properties in seed coat and cotyledon of black soybean (Glycinemax (L.) merr)

open access: yes, 2017
Both extractable (EPE) and non-extractable bound phenolic (BPE) in the seed coat and cotyledon of black bean were investigated in the present study. Their total phenolic contents (TPC) and antioxidant activities (DPPH, ABTS and FRAP) were evaluated, and ...

Identification of Candidate Genes Controlling Black Seed Coat and Pod Tip Color in Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp)

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2018
Seed coat color is an important part of consumer preferences for cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp). Color has been studied in numerous crop species and has often been linked to loci controlling the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway.
