    Cloning and functional analysis of EpGHQH1 in shikonin production of Echium plantagineum

    Shikonins are the main naphthoquinones in the root periderm of Echium plantagineum, as well as the hypocotyl and root hairs of young seedlings. These red pigments can be used as dyes or for medicinal uses since a...

    The Promoters of Two Isoflavone Synthase Genes Respond Differentially to Nodulation and Defense Signals in Transgenic Soybean Roots

    Isoflavonoids are a group of secondary metabolites common to leguminous plants that play roles in nodulation and defense responses. Isoflavone synthase (IFS) catalyzes the key entry point step of isoflavone bi...

    A single Arabidopsis GF14 isoform possesses biochemical characteristics of diverse 14-3-3 homologues

    Arabidopsis cDNA clones of GF14 proteins originally were isolated on the basis of their association with the G-box DNA/protein complex by a monoclonal antibody screening approach. GF14 proteins are homologous to...

    Site-specific oligodeoxynucleotide binding to maize Adh1 gene promoter represses Adh1-GUS gene expression in vivo

    There is a 36 bp tract of extreme homopurine/homopyrimidine (PuPy) asymmetry in the maize Adh1 gene promoter (from −44 to −79) that is S1-hypersensitive in plasmids under supercoil tension. Oligodeoxynucleotides ...
