Genetic Transformation of Artemisia carvifolia Buch with rol Genes Enhances Artemisinin Accumulation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The potent antimalarial drug artemisinin has a high cost, since its only viable source to date is Artemisia annua (0.01-0.8% DW). There is therefore an urgent need to design new strategies to increase its production or to find alternative sources. In the

Genetic modelling of PIM proteins in cancer: proviral tagging, cooperation with oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes and carcinogens.

Frontiers in Oncology, 2014
The PIM proteins, which were initially discovered as proviral insertion sites in Moloney murine leukemia virus infection, are a family of highly homologous serine/threonine kinases that have been reported to be overexpressed in hematological malignancies

Developmental dopamine loss rewires striatal circuits to promote locomotion

Molecular Neurodegeneration
Background Motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease (PD) primarily result from the degeneration of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons (DANs), particularly the Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 1A1-positive (ALDH1A1⁺) subpopulation.

Robust Growth, Leaf Coloration, and Adaptation of a Transgenic Purple-leaved Poplar

HortScience
We studied leaf pigmentation, and several aspects of tree growth and physiology, in transgenic purple and wild-type trees in the field with the goal of evaluating leaf color and stability of color expression, and general growth and adaptation in a ...

Functional Analysis of Polyprenyl Diphosphate Synthase Genes Involved in Plastoquinone and Ubiquinone Biosynthesis in Salvia miltiorrhiza

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Polyprenyl diphosphate synthase (PPS) plays important roles in the biosynthesis of functionally important plastoquinone (PQ) and ubiquinone (UQ). However, only few plant PPS genes have been functionally characterized.
