The tobacco has the genetic potential to remove toxic metals from the soil. To develop hyperaccumulating tobacco plants, distant hybridization between tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.), a high-biomass crop, and Perilla frutescens (L.) Britt var. frutescens, a newfound Cd-hyperaccumulator species, was

Limonene synthase (LS) catalyses the stereo-specific cyclization of geranyl diphosphate (GPP) to form a monocyclic monoterpene, limonene. In an attempt to engineer monoterpene biosynthesis, three expression constructs of LS cDNA of Perilla frutescens, which were designed to be localized in either

Three ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase clones were isolated from the cotyledon cDNA library of the oil plant, Perilla frutescens, and their intracellular localization investigated. Two of three cDNAs (PfagpS1 and PfagpS2) were homologous to the catalytic small subunit of AGPases found in other plants,

Cryptococcus neofomans is an encapsulated yeast-like fungus that causes life-threatening infections, especially in immunosuppresive patients. C.neoformans infection is believed to be acquired via inhalation of aerosolized particles from the environment. Avian guano, decaying tree hollows and soil

A molecular biological study on limonene synthase that catalyzes the cyclization of geranyldiphosphate to yield the olefin 4(S)-limonene, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of a monoterpenoid, perillaldehyde, in Perilla frutescens Britton has been carried out. We isolated and characterized 10 cDNAs

The coordinate expression of anthocyanin biosynthetic genes in leaves and stems of a red forma of Perilla frutescens is presumably controlled by regulatory gene(s). A Myc-like gene (Myc-rp) was isolated from a cDNA library prepared from the leaves of red P. frutescens, and its deduced amino acid

Rubisco large subunit methyltransferase (PsLSMT) is a SET domain protein responsible for the trimethylation of Lys-14 in the large subunit of Rubisco. The polypeptide substrate specificity determinants for pea Rubisco large subunit methyltransferase were investigated using a fusion protein construct

Myc-RP from Perilla frutescens and Delila from Antirrhinum majus, two plant basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors (bHLH TFs) involved in the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway, have been used for the improvement of transactivational properties by directed evolution. Through two rounds of DNA

The N-terminal region of the plant Myc-like basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors (bHLH TFs) contains two domains. Approximately, 190 amino acids at the N-terminus comprise an interaction domain, a.k.a. Myb-interacting-region (MIR) for its primary function of interacting with Myb-like TFs.
