Short duplication in a cDNA clone of the rbcL gene from Picea abies.

1995

The plastidic rbcL gene encodes the LSU of Rubisco (EC 4.1.1.39), the enzyme that catalyzes CO, fixation during photosynthesis (Hallick and Bottomley, 1983). In higher plants the enzyme structure is commonly given as a hexadecameric structure composed of eight LSUs and eight small subunits. Nucleotide sequence data from the rbcL gene have been used extensively in studies of plant phylogeny and molecular evolution (Morden and Golden, 1991; Pasternak and Glick, 1992). To investigate the expression of the rbcL gene in damaged and undamaged Norway spruce trees (Picea abies), we have isolated a rbcL cDNA clone via reverse transcriptasePCR (Table I). Using the proofreading ability of the DNA poly…

Gene structure and function of tyrosine kinases in the marine sponge Geodia cydonium: Autapomorphic characters of Metazoa

1999

Abstract Porifera (sponges) represent the most ancient, extant metazoan phylum. They existed already prior to the ‘Cambrian Explosion’. Based on the analysis of aa sequences of informative proteins, it is highly likely that all metazoan phyla evolved from only one common ancestor (monophyletic origin). As ‘autapomorphic’ proteins which are restricted to Metazoa only, integrin receptors, receptors with scavenger receptor cysteine-rich repeats, neuronal-like receptors and protein–tyrosine kinases (PTKs) have been identified in Porifera. From the marine sponge Geodia cydonium , a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) has been cloned that comprises the characteristic structural topology known from oth…

Complementation among developmental mutants in Aspergillus nidulans.

1973

In heterokaryons between pairs of aconidial mutants of Aspergillus nidulans one of the component strains usually shows a striking prevalance in the contribution to the conidial crop. By assuming that the prevailing strain is blocked earlier and the succumbent one later in the process of differentiation, a series of mutations can be arranged in a consistent order. Some mutant strains do not fit the scheme exactly but show a general tendency to be succumbent to “early” mutants and prevalent over the “late” ones. A criterion for arraying genes involved in differentiation according to the order of their physiological action is proposed.

Cloning and characterization of the histidine biosynthetic gene cluster of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2).

1990

Abstract Biochemical and genetic data indicate that in Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) the majority of the genes involved in the biosynthesis of histidine are clustered in a small region of the chromosome [Carere et al., Mol. Gen. Genet. 123 (1973) 219–224; Russi et al., Mol. Gen. Genet. 123 (1973) 225–232]. To investigate the structural organization and the regulation of these genes, we have constructed genomic libraries from S. coelicolor A3(2) in pUC vectors. Recombinant clones were isolated by complementation of an Escherichia coli hisBd auxotroph. A recombinant plasmid containing a 3.4-kb fragment of genomic DNA was further characterized. When cloned in the plasmid vector, pIJ699, this f…

A Major Effect Gene Controlling Development and Pathogenicity in Botrytis cinerea Identified Through Genetic Analysis of Natural Mycelial Non-pathoge…

2021

Botrytis cinerea is a necrotrophic plant pathogenic fungus with a wide host range. Its natural populations are phenotypically and genetically very diverse. A survey of B. cinerea isolates causing gray mold in the vineyards of Castilla y León, Spain, was carried out and as a result eight non-pathogenic natural variants were identified. Phenotypically these isolates belong to two groups. The first group consists of seven isolates displaying a characteristic mycelial morphotype, which do not sporulate and is unable to produce sclerotia. The second group includes one isolate, which sporulates profusely and does not produce sclerotia. All of them are unresponsive to light. Crosses between a repr…

Unitary groups acting on hyperbolic substructures

2005

Given a quadratic extension L/K of fields and a regular l-Hermitian space (V,h) of finite dimension over L, we study the orbits of the group of isometries of (V,h) in the set of hyperbolic K-substructures of V.

Zebrafish Reveals Different and Conserved Features of Vertebrate Neuroglobin Gene Structure, Expression Pattern, and Ligand Binding

2004

Neuroglobin has been identified as a respiratory protein that is primarily expressed in the mammalian nervous system. Here we present the first detailed analysis of neuroglobin from a non-mammalian vertebrate, the zebrafish Danio rerio. The zebrafish neuroglobin gene reveals a mammalian-type exon-intron pattern in the coding region (B12.2, E11.0, and G7.0), plus an additional 5'-non-coding exon. Similar to the mammalian neuroglobin, the zebrafish protein displays a hexacoordinate deoxy-binding scheme. Flash photolysis kinetics show the competitive binding on the millisecond timescale of external ligands and the distal histidine, resulting in an oxygen affinity of 1 torr. Western blotting, i…

Rat mammary-gland transferrin: nucleotide sequence, phylogenetic analysis and glycan structure

1995

The complete cDNA for rat mammary-gland transferrin (Tf) has been sequenced and also the native protein isolated from milk in order to analyse the structure of the main glycan variants present. A lactating-rat mammary-gland cDNA library in lambda gt10 was screened with a partial cDNA copy of rat liver Tf and subsequently rescreened with 5′ fragments of the longest clones. This produced a 2275 bp insert coding for an open reading frame of 695 amino acid residues. This includes a 19-amino acid signal sequence and the mature protein containing 676 amino acids and one N-glycosylation site in the C-terminal domain at residue 490. Phylogenetic analysis was carried out using 14 translated Tf nucle…
