Expression in cereal plants of genes that inactivate Fusarium mycotoxins.
Trichothecene 3-O-acetyltransferase (encoded by Tri101) inactivates the virulence factor of the cereal pathogen Fusarium graminearum. Zearalenone hydrolase (encoded by zhd101) detoxifies the oestrogenic mycotoxin produced by the same pathogen. These genes were introduced into a model monocotyledon rice plant to evaluate their usefulness for decontamination of mycotoxins. The strong and constitu...
متن کاملNew human and mouse microRNA genes found by homology search.
Conservation of microRNAs (miRNAs) among species suggests that they bear conserved biological functions. However, sequencing of new miRNAs has not always been accompanied by a search for orthologues in other species. I report herein the results of a systematic search for interspecies orthologues of miRNA precursors, leading to the identification of 35 human and 45 mouse new putative miRNA genes...
متن کاملMouse Lbx1 and human LBX1 define a novel mammalian homeo☐ gene family related to the Drosophila lady bird genes
We have cloned two novel homeobox genes which are the mouse (Lbx1) and human (LBX1) homologs of the Drosophila lady bird genes. They are highly related not only within the coding region but also in 5' and 3' untranslated regions. Several amino acid residues inside and around the homeodomain, have been conserved between the mammalian Lbx genes and their Drosophila counterparts. The mouse Lbx1 ge...
متن کاملHey genes: a novel subfamily of hairy- and Enhancer of split related genes specifically expressed during mouse embryogenesis
We have identified a novel subfamily of mammalian hairy/Enhancer of split (E(spl))-related basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) genes together with a putative Drosophila homologue. While hairy/E(spl) proteins are characterized by an invariant proline residue in the basic domain and a carboxyterminal groucho-binding WRPW motif, our genes encode a carboxyterminal KPYRPWG sequence and were thus designate...
متن کاملRegulation of dev, an operon that includes genes essential for Myxococcus xanthus development and CRISPR-associated genes and repeats.
Expression of dev genes is important for triggering spore differentiation inside Myxococcus xanthus fruiting bodies. DNA sequence analysis suggested that dev and cas (CRISPR-associated) genes are cotranscribed at the dev locus, which is adjacent to CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats). Analysis of RNA from developing M. xanthus confirmed that dev and cas genes are ...
