ABSTRACT Indoor vertical farming (VF) offers practical advantages for the cultivation of plant protein bio‐factories including plant uniformity, product consistency, water/nutrient recycling and production cycles on a year‐round basis. Much progress has been achieved toward the development of innovative systems for artificial lighting, automated ...

Suppression of long-distance movement of tobacco etch virus in a nonsusceptible host [PDF]
To investigate host functions involved in the tobacco etch potyvirus (TEV) infection process, a tobacco line (V20) with a strain-specific defect in supporting systemic infection was analyzed. Using a modified TEV encoding a reporter protein, beta-glucuronidase (GUS), genome amplification, cell-to-cell movement, and long-distance movement were measured ...

Genome Editing of eIF4E1 in Tomato Confers Resistance to Pepper Mottle Virus
Many of the recessive virus-resistance genes in plants encode eukaryotic translation initiation factors (eIFs), including eIF4E, eIF4G, and related proteins.

Plant‐Based Production of Human Major Histocompatibility Complex Class II Molecules
ABSTRACT Major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) protein triggers adaptive immune responses by presenting antigens on antigen‐presenting cells (APCs) to be recognised by CD4+ T cells. Recombinant MHC II proteins are effective for the analysis of peptide‐binding interaction, detection of antigen‐specific T‐cells and clinical testing for donor‐

Tobacco plants containing the N-gene are occasionally systemically infected with tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) at temperatures below 28 degrees C, but contain low concentrations of virus: they often fail to set seed, and can outlive healthy control plants ...

Harnessing Natural Diversity and Rational Design for Enhanced Plant Immunity
ABSTRACT Plant pathogens cause crop loss. Genetic resistance, through natural genetic diversity or engineered resistance, can be highly effective in protecting plants from infection. Genetic resistance from wild relatives of crops has been successfully introduced into crops to control pathogen infection.

Unstable variants of tobacco necrosis virus
From single lesions caused by two strains of tobacco necrosis virus variants were isolated that were unstable in sap and difficult to maintain by inoculation with sap.

Electron microscopic evidence on the structure of the particles of tobacco rattle virus [PDF]
The structure of tobacco rattle virus was studied by examining with the electron microscope: (1) shadow-cast mounts of particles partly degraded with alkali, sodium dodecyl sulphate or phenol; (2) unshadowed mounts on thin carbon film of particles ...

Immune response to a potyvirus with exposed amino groups available for chemical conjugation
Background The amino terminus of the tobacco etch virus (TEV) capsid protein is located on the external surface of infectious TEV particles, as proposed by previous studies and an in silico model.

Engineering a protein homodimer from a heterodimer: A chimeric DBHS protein
Abstract Drosophila behavior/human splicing (DBHS) proteins are involved at nearly every stage of the RNA lifecycle. There are three paralogues in mammals—SFPQ, NONO and PSPC1—which form both homodimer and heterodimers. It is likely that the non‐redundant and overlapping roles of the different DBHS paralogues emerge from their dynamic and combinatorial
