Abstract

In plants, jasmonate ZIM-domain proteins (JAZs) act as critical regulators, interacting physically with transcription factors (TFs) and other transcriptional regulators to modulate jasmonate (JA)-responsive gene expression and participate in crosstalk with other hormone signalling pathways. Identifying novel JAZ-interacting proteins will provide new insights into JA signalling cascades in plants. Here, we performed yeast two-hybrid screening to identify 70 NtJAZ1-interacting proteins, including an A/T-rich interaction domain containing protein 1 (NtAIDP1) from JA-treated tobacco Bright Yellow-2 (BY-2) cells. NtAIDP1 is localised in the nucleus and interacts with NtJAZ1 via its C-terminal heat shock protein 20 (HSP) domain. Aside from NtJAZ1, NtAIDP1 also interacts with other JA-inducible NtJAZs, including NtJAZ2b, NtJAZ2b.2, NtJAZ5, NtJAZ7, NtJAZ11 and NtJAZ12, but not with NtJAZ3, NtJAZ3b or NtJAZ10, and interacts with NtNINJA, NtDELLA1 and NtDELLA2 in the yeast two-hybrid assay. Furthermore, NtAIDP1 binds to the AT-rich region of the GAG fragment of the putrescine N-methyltransferase 1a (NtPMT1a) promoter and activates the transcriptional activity of the GAG fragment, whereas NtMYC2a interacts with and competitively inhibits ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
