Assimilation of formaldehyde in transgenic plants due to the introduction of the bacterial ribulose monophosphate pathway genes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Formaldehyde (HCHO) is an air pollutant suspected of being carcinogenic and a cause of sick-house syndrome. Microorganisms called methylotrophs, which can utilize reduced C(1) compounds such as methane and methanol, fix and assimilate HCHO, whereas most plants are unable to assimilate HCHO directly.

Modification of intracellular levels of glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase alters glutathione homeostasis and root development.

Glutathione (GSH)-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FALDH) is a highly conserved medium-chain dehydrogenase reductase and the main enzyme that metabolizes intracellular formaldehyde in eukaryotes. It has been recently shown that it exhibits a strong S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) reductase activity

Genotoxicity/mutagenicity of formaldehyde revealed by the Arabidopsis thaliana plants transgenic for homologous recombination substrates.

Formaldehyde (FA) is a major industrial chemical and has been extensively used in the manufacture of synthetic resins and chemicals. The use of FA-containing industrial materials in daily life exposes human to FA extensively. Numerous studies indicate that FA is genotoxic, and can induce various

Formate dehydrogenase gene of Arabidopsis thaliana is induced by formaldehyde and not by formic acid.

Variability of expression of formate dehydrogenase (FDH) caused by uptake of C-1 compounds was examined by using Arabidopsis thaliana as a model plant. Effects of uptake of several C-1 compounds were evaluated by Northern blot analysis using cDNA of A. thaliana FDH prepared by cloning on the basis

Imaging of formaldehyde in plants with a ratiometric fluorescent probe.

The fluorescence monitoring of formaldehyde in real environmental samples and live plant tissues is of great importance for physiological and pathological studies. However, there is a lack of suitable chemical tools to directly trace and measure the formaldehyde activity in bio-systems, and

A step-by-step protocol for formaldehyde-assisted isolation of regulatory elements from Arabidopsis thaliana.

The control of gene expression by transcriptional regulators and other types of functionally relevant DNA transactions such as chromatin remodeling and replication underlie a vast spectrum of biological processes in all organisms. DNA transactions require the controlled interaction of proteins with

Arabidopsis glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase is an S-nitrosoglutathione reductase.

S-Nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), an adduct of nitric oxide (NO) with glutathione, is known as a biological NO reservoir. Heterologous expression in Escherichia coli of a cDNA encoding a glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase of Arabidopsis thaliana showed that the recombinant protein reduces

Formaldehyde-assisted isolation of regulatory DNA elements from Arabidopsis leaves.

Eukaryotic gene transcription is associated with the eviction of nucleosomes and the formation of open chromatin, which enables the recruitment of transcriptional coactivators and other regulatory factors. Open chromatin is thus a hallmark of functional regulatory DNA elements in genomes. In recent

Arabidopsis formaldehyde dehydrogenase. Molecular properties of plant class III alcohol dehydrogenase provide further insights into the origins, structure and function of plant class p and liver class I alcohol dehydrogenases.

A glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase (class III alcohol dehydrogenase) has been characterized from Arabidopsis thaliana. This plant enzyme exhibits kinetic and molecular properties in common with the class III forms from mammals, with a K(m) for S-hydroxymethylglutathione of 1.4

Cloning of the Arabidopsis and rice formaldehyde dehydrogenase genes: implications for the origin of plant ADH enzymes.

Only registered users can translate articles

This article reports the cloning of the genes encoding the Arabidopsis and rice class III ADH enzymes, members of the alcohol dehydrogenase or medium chain reductase/dehydrogenase superfamily of proteins with glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase activity (GSH-FDH). Both genes contain

Are the reductions in nematode attack on plants treated with seaweed extracts the result of stimulation of the formaldehyde cycle?

Soil application to the roots of tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum) of a commercially-available alkaline extract of the brown alga, Ascophyllum nodosum, resulted in a significant reduction in the number of second-stage juveniles of both Meloidogynejavanica and M. incognita invading the roots,

Over-expression of the Arabidopsis formate dehydrogenase in chloroplasts enhances formaldehyde uptake and metabolism in transgenic tobacco leaves.

UNASSIGNED Over-expression of AtFDH controlled by the promoter of Rubisco small subunit in chloroplasts increases formaldehyde uptake and metabolism in tobacco leaves. Our previous study showed that formaldehyde (HCHO) uptake and resistance in tobacco are weaker than in Arabidopsis. Formate

Enhanced formaldehyde detoxification by overexpression of glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase from Arabidopsis.

The ADH2 gene codes for the Arabidopsis glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FALDH), an enzyme involved in formaldehyde metabolism in eukaryotes. In the present work, we have investigated the potential role of FALDH in detoxification of exogenous formaldehyde. We have generated a yeast

Cloning and characterization of an S-formylglutathione hydrolase from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Only registered users can translate articles

A cDNA from Arabidopsis thaliana resembling S-formylglutathione hydrolase (SFGH), an enzyme with putative roles in formaldehyde detoxification in animals and microorganisms, has been cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The purified recombinant Arabidopsis enzyme (AtSFGH) was a dimer composed

Arabidopsis RNA Polymerase V Mediates Enhanced Compaction and Silencing of Geminivirus and Transposon Chromatin during Host Recovery from Infection.

Only registered users can translate articles

Plants employ RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) and dimethylation of histone 3 lysine 9 (H3K9me2) to silence geminiviruses and transposable elements (TEs). We previously showed that canonical RdDM (Pol IV-RdDM) involving RNA polymerases IV and V (Pol IV and Pol V) is required for Arabidopsis
