Maize rough sheath2 (RS2) and Arabidopsis ASYMMETRIC LEAVES1 (AS1) both encode a Myb transcription factor and repress Knotted1-type homeobox (KNOX) genes. The RS2/AS1-KNOX relationship is functionally conserved between maize and Arabidopsis. Here, we cloned wheat orthologs of RS2/AS1 and of a maize
Messenger RNA activities associated with thylakoids of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii were examined by translation of RNA of rough thylakoids (thylakoids with bound ribosomes) in a wheat germ protein-synthesis system. The RNA fraction, active in translation, did not bind to oligod (T)-cellulose
The rough-type lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of the phytopathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris B 100 was isolated utilizing the hot phenol-water method and successively de-acylated by treatment with hydrazine and hot potassium hydroxide. Four compounds were separated by preparative
Rough-and-tumble play (RTP), also known as play fighting, is a common form of play frequently reported and studied by researchers. However, one important limitation of past research in the area of RTP has been the neglect of the adolescence period. Consequently, little is known about the function of
OBJECTIVE
In this retrospective study, marginal peri-implant bone height around machined and sandblasted/acid-etched interforaminal implants in the mandible was evaluated radiologically at least 3 years after functional loading.
METHODS
Fifty-one patients, each with 4 interforaminal screw-type
Activation of prophenoloxidase and synthesis of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are two important innate immune mechanisms in insects. In the current study, we investigated immune responses activated by three major bacterial components, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (including rough mutants of LPS),
BACKGROUND
Previous studies have shown that nicotine enhances oxidative DNA damage and leads to increased lipid peroxidation, which affects embryo development. The present study investigated the effect of daily supplementation of gamma-tocotrienol on oocytes of nicotine-treated
Focus group research conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Office on Smoking and Health suggested that the desire of teenagers to gain control over their lives would make them responsive to a counteradvertising strategy aimed at exposing the predatory marketing techniques of
The cell wall component of Pseudomonas solanacearum that induces disease resistance in tobacco was highly heat stable at neutral or alkaline pH but highly labile at acid pH. Activity was unaffected by nucleases and proteases but destroyed by a mixture of beta-glycosidases. Washing of bacterial cell
The effect of ethylene on abscission of flower pedicels of tobacco plants has been investigated. For the first 2 h of exposure to C2H4, the pedicels bend rather than break in response to applied force, but after 2.5 h exposure they break at the abscission zone under an applied force of 40 g. The
The ultrastructural appearance of rat tracheal submucosal glands after exposure to tobacco smoke for up to two years is described. Within the mucous cells many of the rough endoplasmic reticulum cisternae were grossly dilated with an accumulation of amorphous, electron-lucent material. The Golgi
The ultrastructural changes observed in ethylene-induced abscission of tobacco flower pedicels (Nicotiana tabacum L. ;Little Turkish') were studied by the techniques of morphometric analysis. The surface area of the membranes, relative volume of the organelles, and the number of organelles were
Changes in the cells comprising the abscission zones of Lycopersicon esculentum and Nicotiana tabacum flower pedicels were observed, apparently associated with the separation of the flowers from the plants. Special attention is devoted to changes which occurred in the fine structure of intracellular
A hybrid protein system was used for the study of protein transport in plant cells. A nucleotide sequence (vic) encoding a putative signal peptide of 15 amino acid residues, derived from the published aa sequence of one Pisum vicilin, was synthesized and fused in frame to the gus gene encoding a
