We previously found that DJ-1 protein of pI 5.8 (DJ-1/5.8) increased on 2D gels as DJ-1 of pI
6.2 (DJ-1/6.2) decreased, upon exposure of human cells to sublethal levels of oxidative …

Stylar riboncleases (RNases) are associated with gametophytic self-incompatibility in two
plant families, the Solanaceae and the Rosaceae. The self-incompatibility-associated …
