  2. 1. Genes encoding homeodomain-leucine zipper proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana

    Author : Eva Söderman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi;

    Abstract : A new class of transcription factors, the homeodomain-leucine zipper (HD-Zip) proteins,have been identified in Arabidopsis thaliana. These proteins contain a homeodomainfollowed by a leucine-zipper motif, a combination so far only found in plants. READ MORE

  4. 2. Interactions of the Cell-Penetrating Peptide Penetratin with Model Membranes and Live Cells

    Author : Daniel Persson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; antisense; antennapedia homeodomain; delivery vector; cell-penetrating peptide; protein transduction; uptake; membrane translocation; penetratin; confocal microscopy; vesicle;

    Abstract : The delivery of large, hydrophilic molecules, such as proteins and oligonucleotides, to the cytoplasm and nucleus of cells is problematic due to their generally low plasma membrane permeability. With the identification of a number of cell-penetrating peptides, capable of mediating non-endocytotic, intracellular delivery of macromolecular cargos, this obstacle now seems surmountable.

  6. 4. Functional analysis of homeodomain-leucine zipper transcription factors in Arabidopsis thaliana

    Author : Henrik Johannesson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; fysiologisk botanik; Physiological Botany;

    Abstract : Homeodomain-leucine zipper (HDZip) proteins constitute a large family of transcription factors apparently unique to plants. To elucidate the function of these factors, the biochemical properties in vitro as well as the effects on transgenic plants when expressed at high levels were studied. READ MORE
