Open AccessTranscriptomic analysis of Sorghum bicolor responding to combined heat and drought stress
Abiotic stresses which include drought and heat are amongst the main limiting factors for plant growth and crop productivity. In the field, these stress types are rarely presented individually and plants are o...

Open AccessGenome of Acanthamoeba castellanii highlights extensive lateral gene transfer and early evolution of tyrosine kinase signaling
The Amoebozoa constitute one of the primary divisions of eukaryotes, encompassing taxa of both biomedical and evolutionary importance, yet its genomic diversity remains largely unsampled. Here we present an an...

Characterization of a Novel Family of Calmodulin-Binding Plasma Membrane Channel-Like Proteins
Calcium (Ca2+) is a ubiquitous second messenger in all eukaryotes (reviewed by Clapham, 1995; Bush, 1995; McAinsh and Hetherington, 1998). Ca2+ signals are transduced primarily by Ca2+ modulated proteins such as ...

The tobacco transcription activator TGA1a binds to a sequence in the 5′ upstream region of a gene encoding a TGA1a-related protein
We have isolated and characterized a tobacco gene, designated G13, encoding a leucine zipper DNA-binding protein related to the transcription activator TGA1a. The G13 coding region is divided into eight exons ...

Ribosomal protein S12 as a site for streptomycin resistance in Nicotiana chloroplasts
A streptomycin resistant Nicotiana plastome mutant, X/str R6, was subjected to molecular analysis. In this mutant, a single nucleotide transition, C » T, in the chloroplast gene for ribosomal protein S12 alters c...
