Study of MYB Transcription Factor Gene Expression in Some Bread Wheat Cultivars of Sistan Region, Iran
Drought, an abiotic stress, considered as one of the factors limiting food resources. The plant responses to adaptive to such a condition are accompanied with changes in the expression pattern of some functional as well as regulatory genes. The MYB proteins include a big family of transcription factors which are highly important in regulating development process and immunizing responses of plan...
متن کاملRTP Family Members Induce Functional Expression of Mammalian Odorant Receptors
Transport of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) to the cell surface membrane is critical in order for the receptors to recognize their ligands. However, mammalian GPCR odorant receptors (ORs), when heterologously expressed in cells, are poorly expressed on the cell surface. Here we show that the transmembrane proteins RTP1 and RTP2 promote functional cell surface expression of ORs expressed in...
متن کاملAn Evolutionarily Conserved Plant RKD Factor Controls Germ Cell Differentiation
In contrast to animals, in which the germ cell lineage is established during embryogenesis, plant germ cells are generated in reproductive organs via reprogramming of somatic cells. The factors that control germ cell differentiation and reprogramming in plants are poorly understood. Members of the RKD subfamily of plant-specific RWP-RK transcription factors have been implicated in egg cell form...
متن کاملTranscription factor oscillations induce differential gene expressions.
Intracellular protein levels of diverse transcription factors (TFs) vary periodically with time. However, the effects of TF oscillations on gene expression, the primary role of TFs, are poorly understood. In this study, we determined these effects by comparing gene expression levels induced in the presence and in the absence of TF oscillations under same mean intracellular protein level of TF. ...
متن کاملTranscription from the P2 promoter of the growth hormone receptor gene involves members of the Sp transcription factor family.
The P2 promoter of the gene for growth hormone receptor is developmentally regulated and is differentially active in a number of tissues. Little is known about the identity of the transcription factors that participate to effect this pattern of transcription. Deletion analysis and transient transfection were used to localize a previously identified cis-acting element within the sheep P2 promote...
