    Phosphorylation of Arabidopsis SINA2 by CDKG1 affects its ubiquitin ligase activity

    SEVEN IN ABSENTIA (SINA) is a RING domain-containing ubiquitin ligase involved in Drosophila eye formation. SINA-like proteins in plants are involved in several signaling pathways. Of the 18 SINA-like proteins id...

    Variation in gene transcription and protein for key enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism in poplar xylem with respect to growth phase

    We compared gene expression levels for enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism in the twig xylem of two Populus species with the seasonal levels of starch and soluble sugars (sucrose, glucose, and fructose) and relati...

    Xyloglucan endotransglycosylase/hydrolase genes in cotton and their role in fiber elongation

    Plant cell wall extensibility is mediated, in part, by xyloglucan endotransglycosylases/hydrolases (XTH) that are able to cleave and reattach xyloglucan polymers that make up the hemicelluloses matrix of type ...

    (Z)-3-Hexenol induces defense genes and downstream metabolites in maize

    In response to insect feeding, corn plants (Zea mays cv. Delprim) release elevated levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including the C6-volatile (Z)-3-hexenol. The level of mRNA accumulation for a series...
