The Arabidopsis thaliana genome encodes three α-amylase-like proteins (AtAMY1, AtAMY2,
and AtAMY3). Only AtAMY3 has a predicted N-terminal transit peptide for plastidial …

Large-scale genome rearrangements have been observed in cells adapting to various
selective conditions during laboratory evolution experiments. However, it remains unclear …

Background Trichoderma reesei (Ascomycota, Pezizomycotina) QM6a is a model fungus for
a broad spectrum of physiological phenomena, including plant cell wall degradation, …

Stem cells have an innate ability to occupy their stem cell niche, which in turn, is optimized to
house stem cells. Organ aging is associated with reduced stem cell occupancy in the niche, …

Vaccinia mature virus requires A26 envelope protein to mediate acid-dependent
endocytosis into HeLa cells in which we hypothesized that A26 protein functions as an acid-sensitive …

Background Hypocrea jecorina is the sexual form of the industrial workhorse fungus Trichoderma
reesei that secretes cellulases and hemicellulases to degrade lignocellulosic biomass …

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Mcl-1-deficient hepatocytes are prone to undergo apoptosis. The
tumor suppressor protein p53 plays an important role in apoptosis control as well as other …

In the cell, many small endogenous metabolic molecules are involved in distinct cellular
functions such as modulation of chromatin structure and regulation of gene expression. O-acetyl-…

A mutant (XT906) of Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri, the causal agent of citrus canker, was
induced by insertion of the transposon Tn5tac1 and isolated. This mutant did not grow or …

Background Orchids comprise one of the largest families of flowering plants and generate
commercially important flowers. However, model plants, such as Arabidopsis thaliana do not …
