Regulation of Drought and Salt Tolerance by OsSKL2 and OsASR1 in Rice

Rice, 2022
Abiotic stresses such as salinity and drought greatly impact the growth and production of crops worldwide. Here, a shikimate kinase-like 2 (SKL2) gene was cloned from rice and characterized for its regulatory function in salinity and drought tolerance ...

A key role for apoplastic H2O2 in Norway spruce phenolic metabolism [PDF]

, 2017
Apoplastic events such as monolignol oxidation and lignin polymerization are difficult to study in intact trees. To investigate the role of apoplastic hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in gymnosperm phenolic metabolism, an extracellular lignin-forming cell ...

The multidimensional regulation roles and mechanisms of calcium in fruit quality

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explores how calcium signaling molecule integrates plant hormones, environmental cues, and developmental signals to influence external fruit traits, internal nutritional properties, and physiological disorders. ABSTRACT Calcium (Ca2+), a dual‐functional mineral that serves both as an essential structural factor and a signaling molecule ...

Identification of a missing link in the evolution of an enzyme into a transcriptional regulator. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The evolution of transcriptional regulators through the recruitment of DNA-binding domains by enzymes is a widely held notion. However, few experimental approaches have directly addressed this hypothesis.

Comparative Transcriptome Analysis of Fungal Pathogen Bipolaris maydis to Understand Pathogenicity Behavior on Resistant and Susceptible Non-CMS Maize Genotypes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Bipolaris maydis is pathogen of maize which causes maydis leaf blight disease. In India major losses occur due to the B. maydis race “O” pathogen, whereas in other parts of the world, major losses are due to the race “T” pathogen.

Constitutive expression of selected genes from the pentose phosphate and aromatic pathways increases the shikimic acid yield in high-glucose batch cultures of an Escherichia coli strain lacking PTS and pykF [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: During the last two decades many efforts have been directed towards obtaining efficient microbial processes for the production of shikimic acid (SA); however, feeding high amounts of substrate to increase the titer of this compound has ...

PPT1‐mediated plastidic phosphoenolpyruvate import enhances fatty acid biosynthesis in sugar‐rich tissues

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Metabolic engineering of vegetative tissues for lipid production holds transformative potential for sustainable biofuels, yet achieving sufficient yields remains challenging. Here, we present a strategy to enhance fatty acid synthesis by redirecting cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) into plastids through overexpression of the plastidial ...

Effects of the magnesium and chloride ions and shikimate on the structure of shikimate kinase fromMycobacterium tuberculosis [PDF]

Acta Crystallographica Section F Structural Biology and Crystallization Communications, 2006
Bacteria, fungi and plants can convert carbohydrate and phosphoenolpyruvate into chorismate, which is the precursor of various aromatic compounds. The seven enzymes of the shikimate pathway are responsible for this conversion. Shikimate kinase (SK) is the fifth enzyme in this pathway and converts shikimate to shikimate-3-phosphate.
