Coproporphyrinogen III oxidase (coprogen oxidase; EC 1.3.3.3) is part of the pathway from 5-amino-levulinate to protoporphyrin IX which is common in all organisms and catalyses oxidative decarboxylation at two tetrapyrrole side chains. We cloned and sequenced full-length cDNAs encoding coprogen
We have cloned and sequenced a full-length cDNA for uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (UROD, EC 4.1.1.37) from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) and a partial cDNA clone from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). The cDNA of tobacco encodes a protein of 43 kDa, which has 33% overall similarity to UROD sequences
Separation of catalase isozymes from leaf extracts of three diverse plant species (Nicotiana sylvestris, Zea mays, Hordeum vulgare L.) revealed a distinct isozyme with enhanced peroxidatic activity (30-, 70-, 28-fold over typical catalase, respectively) which constituted 10 to 20% of the total
Various targeting motifs have been identified for plant proteins delivered to the vacuole. For barley (Hordeum vulgare) lectin, a typical Gramineae lectin and defense-related protein, the vacuolar information is contained in a carboxyl-terminal propeptide. In contrast, the vacuolar targeting
Under conditions of iron deficiency, graminaceous plants induce the expression of genes involved in the biosynthesis of mugineic acid family phytosiderophores. We previously identified the novel cis-acting elements IDE1 and IDE2 (iron-deficiency-responsive element 1 and 2) through promoter analysis
Anatomical modifications and developmental patterns of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) plants transgenic for the barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) homeo box genes bkn-1 or bkn-3 were analysed and the morphogenetic processes interpreted. No appreciable difference between bkn-1 and bkn-3 transgenic tobacco
In this paper we report the in-planta activity of the ribosome-inactivating protein JIP60, a 60-kDa jasmonate-induced protein from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), in transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) plants. All plants expressing the complete JIP60 cDNA under the control of the cauliflower
The plastid gene psbD encodes D2, a photosystem II reaction center chlorophyll-binding protein. psbD is transcribed from a conserved chloroplast promoter that is activated by blue, white, or UV-A light. In this study, various forms of the barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) chloroplast psbD-LRP were fused
Brome mosaic virus (BMV) is a positive-strand RNA virus with a multipartite genome that causes symptomless infection in Nicotiana benthamiana. We have isolated and characterized a strain of BMV that produced uniform vein chlorosis in systemically infected N. benthamiana. Analysis of
The structures of the three Myb-related genes Hv1, Hv5 and Hv33 from barley were determined. They contain a single intron located in the second repeat unit of the Myb-related domain. By analogy to the animal MYB oncoproteins this conserved region of the gene product was shown by filter-binding
The subcellular distribution of plasma-membrane-type Ca2+-transporting ATPases was studied in barley leaves (Hordeum vulgare L.). A highly enriched plasma membrane (PM) fraction was analysed for Ca2+ pumps and compared with several inner-membrane preparations, including the tonoplast, the envelope
CONCLUSIONS
Adapted pathogens are able to modulate cell responses of their hosts most likely due to the activity of secreted effector molecules thereby enabling colonisation by ostensible nonhost pathogens. It is postulated that host and nonhost pathogens of a given plant species differ in their
cDNAs encoding three proteins from barley (Hordeum vulgare), a class-II chitinase (CHI), a class-II beta-1,3-glucanase (GLU) and a Type-I ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) were expressed in tobacco plants under the control of the CaMV 35S-promoter. High-level expression of the transferred genes
To isolate the genes involved in the response of graminaceous plants to Fe-deficient stress, a protein induced by Fe-deficiency treatment was isolated from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) roots. Based on the partial amino acid sequence of this protein, a cDNA (HvAPT1) encoding adenine
