Abstract:
... A mRNA preferentially expressed in cotton fiber was cloned from fiber total RNA of normal upland cotton TM-1 (wild-type) by using RT-PCR and corresponding cDNA (signed asTM-E6) was sequenced.TM-E6 gene had no intron and contained an open reading frame of 771 bp long, and might encode a peptide of 246 amino acids. Other 4 genes,Fl-E6, Li-E6, N-E6 andBl-E6, which were homologous toTM-E6 gene, were a ...

This study examined the impacts of seasonal water variability and interspecific competition on the photosynthetic characteristics of a C₃ (Leymus chinensis) and a C₄ (Chloris virgata) grass species. Plants received the same amount of water but in three seasonal patterns, i.e. the one-peak model (more water in the summer than in the spring and autumn), the two-peak model (more water in the spring a ...

This protein binds to and bundles taxol-stabilized microtubules and enhances tubulin polymerization in a concentration-dependent manner, particularly at lower temperatures. Electron microscopy revealed that the protein decorates the entire length of microtubules. Cross-linking and electro ...

Much progress has been made in computational target prediction of miRNAs in recent years. More than 10 miRNA target prediction programs have been established, yet, the prediction of animal miRNA targets remains a challenging task. We have developed miRecords, an integrated resource for ...
