purification of lipid transfer protein 2 (ltp2) from iranian rice paddy
abstract plant nonspecific lipid transfer proteins (nsltps) are divided into nsltp1 and nsltp2. the existence of an internal hydrophobic cavity, is a typical characteristic of nsltps that serves as the binding site for lipid substrates. in this communication a simple, rapid and low-cost alternative method was developed for purification of nsltp2 from rice paddy. after extracting, final supernat...
متن کاملTomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) genomic clone homologous to a gene encoding an abscisic acid-induced protein.
The plant hormone ABA is involved in a number of important physiological and developmental processes including the response of vegetative tissues to osmotic stress and fruit ripening (Davies and Mansfield, 1983). We report here the main structural features of a gene termed Asr2 (Table I), homologous to Asrl (standing for ABA, stress, and ripening), whose cDNA has been previously characterized (...
متن کاملQuantitative analysis by flow cytometry of abscisic acid-inducible gene expression in transiently transformed rice protoplasts.
BACKGROUND Quantifying plant gene expression by flow cytometry (FCM) would allow multidimensional cell-parameter analysis on a per-cell basis, thereby providing insight into the cellular mechanisms of plant gene regulation. Here we sought to establish quantitation by FCM of plant hormone (abscisic acid, ABA)-inducible green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression and to compare the method directly...
متن کاملTissue-specific expression of a gene encoding a cell wall-localized lipid transfer protein from Arabidopsis.
Nonspecific lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) from plants are characterized by their ability to stimulate phospholipid transfer between membranes in vitro. However, because these proteins are generally located outside of the plasma membrane, it is unlikely that they have a similar role in vivo. As a step toward identifying the function of these proteins, one of several LTP genes from Arabidoposis ...
متن کاملTrivalent ions activate abscisic acid-inducible promoters through an ABI1-dependent pathway in rice protoplasts.
The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) mediates many vital processes in plant growth and development, including seed dormancy, cell division, water use efficiency, and adaptation to drought, salinity, chilling, pathogen attack, and UV light. Our understanding of ABA signal transduction is fragmentary and would benefit from specific and facile probes of the process. Protoplasts from rice (Oryza s...
