Gene expression in plastids of higher plants is dependent on two different transcription
machineries, a plastid-encoded bacterial-type RNA polymerase (PEP) and a nuclear …

Chloroplast biogenesis and function is essential for proper plant embryo and seed
development but the molecular mechanisms underlying the role of plastids during …

RpoN, an alternative sigma factor commonly known as σ54, is implicated in persistent
stages of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis infections in which genes associated with this …

The weak heat tolerance of Clematis ornamental varieties negatively affects their
ornamental qualities in the summer. To elucidate heat resistance mechanisms, Clematis …

The lengths of intergenic regions between neighboring genes that are convergent,
divergent, or unidirectional were calculated for plastids of the rhodophytic branch and …

Both transcription and transcript processing are more complex in chloroplasts than in
bacteria. Plastid genes are transcribed by a plastid-encoded RNA polymerase (PEP) and …

This study considers transcription regulation of plastid genes involved in sulfate transport in
the parasites of invertebrate (Helicosporidium sp.) and other species of the Viridiplantae. A …

We report the database of plastid protein families from red algae, secondary and tertiary
rhodophyte‐derived plastids, and Apicomplexa constructed with the novel method to infer …

Background In previous work, we introduced a concept, a mathematical model and its
computer realization that describe the interaction between bacterial and phage type RNA …

An effective algorithm to reconstruct chromosomal structures is developed together with its
computer implementation. The algorithm is applied to study chromosomal evolution in …
