Plants provide an inexpensive and convenient system for the large-scale production of
valuable recombinant proteins. This principle has been demonstrated by the commercial …

Plants are a promising expression system for the production of heterologous proteins,
especially therapeutic proteins. Currently the majority of therapeutic proteins are produced …

Peroxidases have been shown to be involved in the polymerization of lignin precursors, but
it remains unclear whether laccases (EC 1.10. 3.2) participate in constitutive lignification. We …

The Arabidopsis thaliana transparent testa10 (tt10) mutant exhibits a delay in
developmentally determined browning of the seed coat, also called the testa. Seed coat …

The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) regulates important stress and developmental
responses. We have isolated a recessive ABA hypersensitive mutant, abh1, that shows …

Translational regulation was evaluated for over 2000 genes by measurement of the
proportion of individual mRNA species in polysomal (PS) complexes in leaves of non …

Aims and Scope All aerobic organisms require molecular di-oxygen (O2) for efficient
production of ATP though oxidative phosphorylation. Cellular depletion of oxygen results in …

Summary Salt Overly Sensitive 1 (SOS1), a plasma membrane Na+/H+ antiporter in
Arabidopsis, is a salt tolerance determinant crucial for the maintenance of ion homeostasis …

Immunoaffinity purification of polyribosomes (polysomes) from crude leaf extracts of
Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) was achieved with transgenic genotypes that …

A proton–sucrose symporter mediates the key step in carbon export from leaves of most
plants. Sucrose transport activity and steady-state mRNA levels of BvSUT1, a sugar beet leaf …
