Developmental Regulation of a Plasma Membrane Arabinogalactan Protein Epitope in Oilseed Rape Flowers.

Developmental Regulation of a Plasma Membrane Arabinogalactan Protein Epitope in Oilseed Rape Flowers.

We have identified and characterized the temporal and spatial regulation of a plasma membrane arabinogalactan protein epitope during development of the aerial parts of oilseed rape using the monoclonal antibody JIM8. The JIM8 epitope is expressed by the first cells of the embryo and by certain cells in the sexual organs of flowers. During embryogenesis, the JIM8 epitope ceases to be expressed b...

Identification of Drought Tolerant Oilseed Rape Genotypes using Multivariate Analysis

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Drought stress as one of the most important abiotic stress is the main limiting factor of oilseed rape cultivation in arid and semi-arid climates. Therefore, the identification of drought tolerant genotypes is the essential programs in these regions. One of the appropriate methods to identify drought tolerant genotypes is the use of stress toleranc...

Developmental regulation of Dictyostelium discoideum plasma membrane proteins

Developmental changes in the plasma membrane proteins of Dictyostelium discoideum have been studied using metabolic labeling with [35S]methionine and two-dimensional electrophoresis. Pulse labeling for 1 h at the early interphase, late interphase, aggregation, and tip formation stages of development showed that the profile of newly synthesized plasma membrane proteins changed dramatically over ...

Tomato LeAGP-1 is a plasma membrane-bound, glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored arabinogalactan-protein.

Arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) are a class of highly glycosylated, hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins that function in plant growth and development. Tomato LeAGP-1 represents a major AGP expressed in cultured cells and plants. Based on cDNA and amino acid sequence analyses along with carbohydrate and other biochemical analyses, tomato LeAGP-1 is hypothesized to be a classical AGP localized to t...
