Molecular Properties and Functional Divergence of the Dehydroascorbate Reductase Gene Family in Lower and Higher Plants
Dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), which reduces oxidized ascorbate, is important for maintaining an appropriate ascorbate redox state in plant cells. To date, genome-wide molecular characterization of DHARs has only been conducted in bryophytes (Physcomitrella patens) and eudicots (e.g. Arabidopsis thaliana). In this study, to gain a general understanding of the molecular properties and functi...

Nonreciprocal complementation of KNOX gene function in land plants
Class I KNOTTED-LIKE HOMEOBOX (KNOX) proteins regulate development of the multicellular diploid sporophyte in both mosses and flowering plants; however, the morphological context in which they function differs. In order to determine how Class I KNOX function was modified as land plants evolved, phylogenetic analyses and cross-species complementation assays were performed. Our data reveal that a...
متن کاملMaximum-likelihood approach for gene family evolution under functional divergence.
According to the observed alignment pattern (i.e., amino acid configuration), we studied two basic types of functional divergence of a protein family. Type I functional divergence after gene duplication results in altered functional constraints (i.e., different evolutionary rate) between duplicate genes, whereas type II results in no altered functional constraints but radical change in amino ac...
متن کاملFunctional and Structural Divergence of an Unusual LTR Retrotransposon Family in Plants
Retrotransposons with long terminal repeats (LTRs) more than 3 kb are not frequent in most eukaryotic genomes. Rice LTR retrotransposon, Retrosat2, has LTRs greater than 3.2 kb and two open reading frames (ORF): ORF1 encodes enzymes for retrotransposition whereas no function can be assigned to ORF0 as it is not found in any other organism. A variety of experimental and in silico approaches were...
