RNAi for Western Corn Rootworm Management: Lessons Learned, Challenges, and Future Directions
Insects, 2022 The western corn rootworm (WCR), Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte, is considered one of the most economically important pests of maize (Zea mays L.) in the United States (U.S.) Corn Belt with costs of management and yield losses exceeding USD ~1–2 ...

ESCRT-III activation by parallel action of ESCRT-I/II and ESCRT-0/Bro1 during MVB biogenesis
eLife, 2016 The endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) pathway facilitates multiple fundamental membrane remodeling events. Previously, we determined X-ray crystal structures of ESCRT-III subunit Snf7, the yeast CHMP4 ortholog, in its active and ...

Electrostatic lateral interactions drive ESCRT-III heteropolymer assembly
eLife, 2019 Self-assembly of ESCRT-III complex is a critical step in all ESCRT-dependent events. ESCRT-III hetero-polymers adopt variable architectures, but the mechanisms of inter-subunit recognition in these hetero-polymers to create flexible architectures remain ...

ESCRT-III Protein Snf7 Mediates High-Level Expression of the SUC2 Gene via the Rim101 Pathway [PDF]
Eukaryotic Cell, 2008 ABSTRACT The yeast ( Saccharomyces cerevisiae ) Snf7 family consists of six highly charged, coiled-coil-forming proteins involved in multivesicular body (MVB) formation. Although all proteins perform a common function at late endosomes, individual mutants also show distinct phenotypes.

Selection of housekeeping genes and demonstration of RNAi in cotton leafhopper, Amrasca biguttula biguttula (Ishida). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Amrasca biguttula biguttula (Ishida) commonly known as cotton leafhopper is a severe pest of cotton and okra. Not much is known on this insect at molecular level due to lack of genomic and transcriptomic data. To prepare for functional genomic studies in

ESCRT-III drives the final stages of CUPS maturation for unconventional protein secretion
eLife, 2016 The unconventional secretory pathway exports proteins that bypass the endoplasmic reticulum. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, conditions that trigger Acb1 secretion via this pathway generate a Grh1 containing compartment composed of vesicles and tubules ...
