The mRNA for an ETR1 homologue in tomato is constitutively expressed in vegetative and reproductive tissues
Dominant mutations in the Arabidopsis ETR1 gene block the ethylene signal transduction pathway. The ETR1 gene has been cloned and sequenced. Using the ETR1 cDNA as a probe, we identified a cDNA homologue (eTAE1) ...

Open AccessA protein knockdown strategy to study the function of β-catenin in tumorigenesis
The Wnt signaling pathway plays critical roles in cell proliferation and cell fate determination at many stages of development. A critical downstream target of Wnt signaling is the cytosolic β-catenin, which i...

Protocol
Determining Protein Half-Lives
Controlling the stability of cellular proteins is a fundamental way by which cells regulate growth, differentiation, survival, and development. Measuring the turnover rate of a protein is often the first step ...

Open AccessTransient in uteroknockout (TIUKO) of C-MYC affects late lung and intestinal development in the mouse
Developmentally important genes often result in early lethality in knockout animals. Thus, the direct role of genes in late gestation organogenesis cannot be assessed directly. In utero delivery of transgenes was...

Essential role of the CUL4B ubiquitin ligase in extra-embryonic tissue development during mouse embryogenesis
Mutations of the CUL4B ubiquitin ligase gene are causally linked to syndromic X-linked mental retardation (XLMR). However, the pathogenic role of CUL4B mutations in neuronal and developmental defects is not under...

Characterization and constitutive expression of a novel endo-1,4-β-d-xylanohydrolase from Aspergillus niger in Pichia pastoris
A putative endo-1,4-β-d-xylanohydrolase gene xyl10 from Aspergillus niger, encoding a 308-residue mature xylanase belonging to glycosyl hydrolase family 10, was constitutively expressed in Pichia pastoris. The re...

Characterization and constitutive expression of an acidic mesophilic endo-1,4-β-d-xylanohydrolase with high thermotolerance and catalytic efficiency in Pichia pastoris
A putative endo-1,4-β-d-xylanohydrolase gene xyl11 from Aspergillus niger, encoding a 188-residue xylanase of glycosyl hydrolase family 11, was constitutively expressed in Pichia pastoris. The recombinant Xyl11 e...

Open AccessCHD3 facilitates vRNP nuclear export by interacting with NES1 of influenza A virus NS2
NS2 from influenza A virus mediates Crm1-dependent vRNP nuclear export through interaction with Crm1. However, even though the nuclear export signal 1 (NES1) of NS2 does not play a requisite role in NS2–Crm1 i...
