...Jie Shu; Chen Chen; Chenlong Li; Yuhai Cui Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) is an evolutionally conserved multisubunit complex essential for the development of eukaryotes. In Arabidopsis thaliana ( Arabidopsis ), CURLY LEAF (CLF) and SWINGER (SWN) are PRC2 catalytic subunits that repress gene...

.... In addition to the core subunits, an exponentially increasing number of PRC1-associated factors have been identified in Arabidopsis thaliana . Recent studies have also unraveled cross-component interactions and intertwined roles of PRC1 and PRC2 in chromatin modulation. In addition, complexities...

A biologically relevant substrate for BGALs during fruit ripening of tomato is galactan, a polymer of β-(1-4) D-galactose attached to RGI [ 25 – 27 ]. In this mini review, we discuss the BGALs from Arabidopsis thaliana and Solanum lycopersicum...

To date, only Arabidopsis thaliana and tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum ) mature pollen have been subjected to phosphoproteomic studies in order to identify the phosphoproteins present. In the present mini-review...

Furthermore, it restricts the developmental progression of meristemoids to guard mother cells, possibly by regulating the activity of the bHLH transcription factor MUTE, although MUTE does not appear to be a direct MAPK target on the basis of in vitro data [ 25 ]. Arabidopsis thaliana...

.... In Arabidopsis thaliana , we have identified several DNA fragments (less than 5 kb in size) with genetic recombination rates at least 5 times higher than the whole-chromosome average [4.6 cM (centimorgan)/Mb], which are therefore probable hotspots for meiotic recombination. Most crossover breakpoints lie...

.... The TOR protein is specifically inhibited by a rapamycin–FKBP12 complex (where FKBP stands for FK506-binding protein) in yeast and animal cells. Whereas plants appear insensitive to rapamycin, Arabidopsis thaliana harbours a single TOR gene, which is essential for embryonic development. It was found...
