Molecular characterization and genetic mapping of DNA sequences encoding the Type I chlorophyll a/b-binding polypeptide of photosystem I in Lycopersicon esculentum (tomato)
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Martinus Nijhoff Publishers ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1987-05)
We report the isolation and characterization of a tomato nuclear gene encoding a chlorophyll a/b-binding (CAB) protein of photosystem I (PSI). The coding nucleotide sequence of the gene, designated Cab -6B, is different ...
Sequence of a tomato gene encoding a third type of LHCII chlorophyll a/b -binding polypeptide
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1991-10)
Light-induced expression of ipt from Agrobacterium tumefaciens results in cytokinin accumulation and osmotic stress symptoms in transgenic tobacco
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1995-01)
Cytokinins are plant growth regulators that induce shoot formation, inhibit senescence and root growth. Experiments with hydroponically grown tobacco plants, however, indicated that exogenously applied cytokinin led to the ...
The tomato Cab -4 and Cab -5 genes encode a second type of CAB polypeptides localized in Photosystem II
(Martinus Nijhoff, The Hague/Kluwer Academic Publishers; Martinus Nijhoff Publishers ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1987-03)
The photosynthetic apparatus of plant chloroplasts contains two photosystems, termed Photosystem I (PSI) and Photosystem II (PSII). Both PSI and PSII contain several types of chlorophyll a/b-binding (CAB) polypeptides, at ...
Copper-induced expression, cloning, and regulatory studies of the plastocyanin gene from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1990-10)
Plastocyanin can be detected in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 when 3 μM copper is added to the growth medium, BG-11. The plastocyanin gene ( petE ) was cloned from a genomic λ EMBL 3 library by screening with the petE gene ...
Heterogeneity and organization of the ribosomal RNA genes of Cucurbita maxima
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1990-06)
Thirty-six clones were recovered from Cucurbita maxima genomic DNA which had been enriched for rDNA and cleaved at the unique repeat unit Hin d III site. Twenty-nine of these, which contain complete rDNA units, were compared ...
Elucidating the Genetic Basis of Pigmentation Differences between Drosophila Species.
(2012)
Understanding how phenotypes change has been a long-standing question in evolutionary biology. The research presented here investigates the genetic basis of the pigmentation difference exhibited between the dark pigmented ...
Patched Together: cis-Regulatory Logic of the Hedgehog Response.
(2016)
Understanding the processes that control how we develop from a fertilized embryo to a functional adult is paramount for treating the diseases that result when these processes are disrupted at any stage of life. My dissertation ...
Inside or Out: Characterizing petrobactin use by Bacillus anthracis
(2018)
Bacillus anthracis is a Gram-positive, spore-forming bacillus and causes the disease anthrax. Anthrax is a deadly infection that begins with phagocytosis of a B. anthracis spore by an antigen presenting cell and ends when ...
Molecular Investigation of Human-Specific Neurobiology: From Cortical Evolution to Neurodevelopmental Disorders
(2022)
The human brain evolves under a unique set of adaptive pressures, distinguishing aspects of form and function from the brains of other primate species. An outstanding question in evolutionary biology is the biological ...
