Peroxin Puzzles and Folded Freight: Peroxisomal Protein Import in Review
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1999-02)
Sequence of the fourth and fifth Photosystem II Type I chlorophyll a/b -binding protein genes of Arabidopsis thaliana and evidence for the presence of a full complement of the extended CAB gene family
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1992-08)
A second locus ( Lhb1B ) encoding Photosystem II Type I chlorophyll a/b -binding (CAB) polypeptides was identified in Arabidopsis thaliana . This locus carries two genes in an inverted orientation. The predicted sequences ...
The surprising complexity of peroxisome biogenesis
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1998-09)
Peroxisomes are small organelles with a single boundary membrane. All of their matrix proteins are nuclear-encoded, synthesized on free ribosomes in the cytosol, and post-translationally transported into the organelle. ...
A Myosin from a Higher Plant has Structural Similarities to Class V Myosins
(Elsevier, 1994-06-16)
In plant cells, myosin is believed to be the molecular motor responsible for actin-based motility processes such as cytoplasmic streaming and directed vesicle transport. In an effort to characterize plant myosin, a cDNA ...
Restriction fragment length polymorphisms distinguish among accessions of Ceratopteris thalictroides and C. richardii ( Parkeriaceae )
(Springer-Verlag, 1994-09)
We have used cDNA clones as probes on Southern blots to detect restriction fragment length polymorphisms among seven Ceratopteris thalictroides accessions, three C. richardii accessions, and one putative interspecific ...
Elimination of a brain tract increases errors in pathfinding by follower growth cones in the zebrafish embryo
(Elsevier, 1991-08)
The early zebrafish brain contains a simple axon scaffold of longitudinal tracts connected by commissures. Neurons in the nucleus of the posterior commissure (nuc PC) project growth cones along a specific route in this ...
Genetic and physical characterization of a region of Arabidopsis chromosome 1 containing the CLAVATA1 gene
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1999-01)
With the advance of Arabidopsis as a model system for understanding plant genetics, development and biochemistry, a detailed description of the genome is necessary. As such, focused projects are underway to map and sequence ...
Molecular analysis of the myosin gene family in Arabidopsis thaliana
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1994-11)
Myosin is believed to act as the molecular motor for many actin-based motility processes in eukaryotes. It is becoming apparent that a single species may possess multiple myosin isoforms, and at least seven distinct classes ...
Responses to iron deficiency in Arabidopsis thaliana : The Turbo iron reductase does not depend on the formation of root hairs and transfer cells
(Springer-Verlag, 1995-02)
Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. Columbia wild type and a root hair-less mutant RM57 were grown on iron-containing and iron-deficient nutrient solutions. In both genotypes, ferric chelate reductase (FCR) of intact roots ...
Expression of rod and cone visual pigments in goldfish and zebrafish: A rhodopsin-like gene is expressed in cones
(Elsevier, 1993-06)
The primary purpose of the present study was to determine whether a rhodopsin-like gene, which has been postulated to represent the green cone pigment in several species, is in fact expressed in cone photoreceptors instead ...
