  2. 1. In vitro and in vivo approaches in the characterization of XTH gene products

    Author : Nomchit Kaewthai; Harry Brumer; Jocelyn Rose; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arabiodopsis thaliana; Hordeum vulgare; plant cell wall; xyloglucan; glycoside hydrolase family 16; xyloglucan endo-transglycosylase hydrolase gene family; xyloglucan endo-hydrolase; heterologous protein expression; Pichia pastoris; T-DNA insertion; in situ XET XEH assay; high-througput screening; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Functional genomics; Funktionsgenomik; SRA - Molecular Bioscience; SRA - Molekylär biovetenskap;

    Abstract : ABSTRACT The xyloglucan endo-transglycosylase/hydrolase (XTH) genes are found in all vascular and some nonvascular plants. The XTH genes encode proteins which comprise a subfamily of glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 16 in the Carbohydrate-Active enZYmes (CAZY) classification. READ MORE

  4. 2. Plant UDP-glucose Pyrophosphorylase : Function and Regulation

    Author : Meng Meng; Leszek Kleczkowski; Javier Pozueta-Romero; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase; carbohydrate metabolism; in vivo regulation; T-DNA knockout; heterologous expression; isozyme; mutagenesis; kinetic property; oligomerization; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi;

    Abstract : UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (UGPase) is an important enzyme of carbohydrate metabolism in all living organisms. The main aim of this thesis was to investigate the function and regulation of plant UGP genes as well as the UGPase proteins. READ MORE

  5. 3. Alternative pathways in the plant respiratory chain -transgenic analyses of type II NAD(P)H dehydrogenases

    Author : Sabá Wallström; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : During oxidative phosphorylation, the production of ATP is driven by the activity of several proton-pumping respiratory protein complexes. In plants, non-proton pumping type II NAD(P)H dehydrogenases are also present in the respiratory chain to oxidize cytosolic and matrix NAD(P)H. READ MORE

  6. 4. The Role of the Homeobox Gene ATHB16 in Development Regulation in Arabidopsis thaliana

    Author : Yan Wang; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Arabidopsis thaliana; Homeobox gene; Functional genomics; Plant development; ATHB16; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; fysiologisk botanik; Physiological Botany;

    Abstract : There are 42 members of the homeodomain-leucine zipper (HDZip) family of transcription factors in Arabidopsis thaliana. This thesis focuses on the functional analysis of one member of this family, ATHB16, and on the biochemical properties of HDZip proteins. READ MORE

  7. 5. Short and long term low temperature responses in Arabidopsis thaliana

    Author : Paulina Stachula; Vaughan Professor; Dirk Hincha; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biology; biologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : A unique aspect of plant biology is their ability to respond very rapidly to shifts in their ever-changing environment. To do this, plants need to have evolved mechanisms that enable them to sense their environment and to rapidly respond to different stresses and different combinations of stress. READ MORE
