RNA Interference-Mediated Simultaneous Suppression of Seed Storage Proteins in Rice Grains
Seed storage proteins (SSPs) such as glutelin, prolamin, and globulin are abundant components in some of the most widely consumed food cereals in the world. Synthesized in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER), SSPs are translocated to the protein bodies. Prolamins are located at the spherical protein body I derived from the ER, whereas, glutelins and globulin are accumulated in the irregularly ...
متن کاملLack of Globulin Synthesis during Seed Development Alters Accumulation of Seed Storage Proteins in Rice
The major seed storage proteins (SSPs) in rice seeds have been classified into three types, glutelins, prolamins, and globulin, and the proportion of each SSP varies. It has been shown in rice mutants that when either glutelins or prolamins are defective, the expression of another type of SSP is promoted to counterbalance the deficit. However, we observed reduced abundances of glutelins and pro...
متن کاملStable suppression of tumorigenicity by virus-mediated RNA interference.
Most human tumors harbor multiple genetic alterations, including dominant mutant oncogenes. It is often not clear which of these oncogenes are continuously required and which, when inactivated, may inhibit tumorigenesis. Recently, we developed a vector that mediates suppression of gene expression through RNA interference. Here, we use a retroviral version of this vector to specifically and stab...
متن کاملThin frozen film method for visualization of storage proteins in mature rice grains.
There are technical difficulties in obtaining intact sections of cereal grains in which mature cells and their subcellular structures are well preserved. Here we describe a simple method for sectioning hard mature rice grains. It makes possible accurate localization of storage proteins in high-quality histological sections of rice endosperm.
متن کاملRNA interference-mediated change in protein body morphology and seed opacity through loss of different zein proteins.
Opaque or nonvitreous phenotypes relate to the seed architecture of maize (Zea mays) and are linked to loci that control the accumulation and proper deposition of storage proteins, called zeins, into specialized organelles in the endosperm, called protein bodies. However, in the absence of null mutants of each type of zein (i.e. alpha, beta, gamma, and delta), the molecular contribution of thes...
