A novel chloroplast gene reported for flagellate plants.
PREMISE OF THE STUDY Gene space in plant plastid genomes is well characterized and annotated, yet we discovered an unrecognized open reading frame (ORF) in the fern lineage that is conserved across flagellate plants. METHODS We initially detected a putative uncharacterized ORF by the existence of a highly conserved region between rps16 and matK in a series of matK alignments of leptosporangia...
متن کاملExpression of nucleus-encoded genes for chloroplast proteins in the flagellate Euglena gracilis.
Reverse transcription PCRs (RT-PCRs), real-time RT-PCRs and microarrays containing 50-mer oligonucleotides representing nucleus-encoded genes for chloroplast proteins from Euglena gracilis were used to compare light- and dark-grown wild-type mRNA levels to those of light- and dark-grown E. gracilis stable white mutant strains W(gm)ZOflL, W₃BUL and W₁₀BSmL. The analyses revealed no light-depende...
متن کاملIndigenous Plants Reported for Hypoglycemic Activity
Plants are the only source of a well established traditional and modern drugs and phytochemicals. Many plant species are known in folk medicine of different cultures to be used for their hypoglycemic properties and therefore used for treatment of diabetes. The evaluation of these plants and of their active natural principles is logic way of searching for new drugs to treat this disease. The pre...
متن کاملMechanisms of Chloroplast Protein Import in Plants
F. Kessler Laboratoire de Physiologie Végétale, Université de Neuchâtel, Rue Emile-Argand 11, 2000 Neuchâtel, Switzerland e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Most chloroplast proteins are encoded as preproteins by the nuclear genome. Their import into chloroplasts occurs post-translationally. An N-terminal pre-sequence, the transit peptide, contains the organellar targeting information. It ...
متن کاملIdentification of a Chloroplast Dehydrin in Leaves of Mature Plants
Several types of proteins are known to accumulate as a result of dehydration stress in plants, and many of these are thought to serve a protective function. This includes the dehydrin family of proteins, which accumulate in cells in response to drought, low temperatures, or salinity and in embryo tissues during the maturation phase of seed development, when the seed is losing water in preparati...
