IRE1 plays an essential role in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response in yeast and
mammals. We found that a double mutant of Arabidopsis IRE1A and IRE1B (ire1a/ire1b) is …

When maize seedlings were exposed to cold stress, a genome-wide demethylation occurred
in root tissues. Screening of genomic DNA identified one particular fragment that was …

The demand for decaffeinated coffee is increasing because the stimulatory effects of
caffeine can adversely affect sensitive individuals by triggering palpitations, increased blood …

The unfolded protein response (UPR) activates a set of genes to overcome accumulation of
unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a condition termed ER stress, and …

Analysis of transcripts of 75 genes encoding putative basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription
factors in the Arabidopsis genome identified AtbZIP60, which was induced by tunicamycin. …

Secretory proteins undergo modifications such as glycosylation and disulphide bond formation
before proper folding, and move to their final destination via the endomembrane system. …

Proteins synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of eukaryotic cells must be folded
correctly before translocation out of the ER. Disruption of protein folding results in the induction …

A major response of eukaryotic cells to the presence of unfolded proteins in the lumen of the
endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is to activate genes that encode ER-located molecular …

Arabidopsis stt3a-1 and stt3a-2 mutations cause NaCl/osmotic sensitivity that is characterized
by reduced cell division in the root meristem. Sequence comparison of the STT3a gene …

The unfolded protein response (UPR) is a cellular response highly conserved in eukaryotes
to obviate accumulation of misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Inositol-…
