RNA interference (RNAi) in plants can move from cell to cell, allowing for systemic spread of an antiviral immune response. How this cell-to-cell silencing is regulated currently unknown. Here, we describe that the C4 protein Tomato yellow leaf curl virus inhibit intercellular RNAi. Using viral as a probe, have identified receptor-like kinase (RLK) BARELY ANY MERISTEM 1 (BAM1) positive regulator movement RNAi, and determined BAM1 its closest homolog, BAM2, play redundant role process....
The plasma membrane (PM) is composed of heterogeneous subdomains, characterized by differences in protein and lipid composition. PM receptors can be dynamically sorted into domains to underpin signaling response extracellular stimuli. In plants, the plasmodesmal a discrete microdomain that hosts specific responses. We exploited independence this domain investigate how independently integrate signal triggers responses across cell. Focusing on chitin signaling, we found require LysM receptor...
H5N1 influenza A virus (IAV) causes severe respiratory diseases and high mortality rates in animals humans. MicroRNAs are being increasingly studied to evaluate their potential as therapeutic entities combat viral infection. However, mechanistic studies delineating the roles of microRNAs regulating host-H5N1 interactions remain scarce. Here, we performed microRNA microarray analysis using A549 human lung epithelial cells infected with a highly pathogenic avian virus. The expression profile...
The secondary walls of angiosperms contain large amounts glucuronoxylan that is thought to be covalently linked lignin via ester bonds between 4-O-methyl-α-d-glucuronic acid (4-O-Me-GlcA) moieties in and alcohol groups lignin. This linkage proposed hydrolysed by glucuronoyl esterases (GCEs) secreted wood-degrading fungi. We report effects overexpression a GCE from the white-rot basidiomycete Phanerochaete carnosa, PcGCE, hybrid aspen (Populus tremula L. x tremuloides Michx.) on wood...
Peptidoglycans (PGNs) are immunogenic bacterial surface patterns that trigger immune activation in metazoans and plants. It is generally unknown how complex structures such as PGNs perceived by plant pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) whether host hydrolytic activities facilitate decomposition of matrices generation soluble PRR ligands. Here we show Arabidopsis thaliana, upon infection or exposure to microbial patterns, produces a metazoan lysozyme-like hydrolase (lysozyme 1, LYS1). LYS1...
Abstract Background There is a growing interest in Jatropha curcas L. (jatropha) as biodiesel feedstock plant. Variations its morphology and seed productivity have been well documented. However, there the lack of systematic comparative evaluation distinct collections under same climate agronomic practices. With several reports on low genetic diversity jatropha collections, uncertainty contribution to morphology. Result In this study, five populations plants collected from China (CN),...
Light is one of the regulating factors in marine environment, playing a crucial role growth, development, and metabolism benthic shellfish. To better understand light regulatory Babylonia areolata growth we used multivariate experimental design (light color variables: blue, white, green; intensity 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 μmol·m-2·s-1) to analyze effects environment on adult B. performance, energy enzyme activity glycogen content. Under same color, body weight rate at 8 16 μmol·m-2·s-1 was...
Paeonia qiui is a wild species of tree peony native to China. Its leaves are purplish red from the bud germination flowering stage, and anthocyanin main pigment in leaves. However, synthesis regulation mechanism remains unclear. In this study, an R2R3-MYB, PqMYB113 was identified P. qiui. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that clustered with Liquidambar LfMYB113 grape VvMYBA6. Subcellular location showed located cell nucleus. The transient reporter assay suggested transcriptional activator....
Paeonia qiui is a wild tree peony native to China. Its leaves show clear purple-red color from the germination flowering stage, and it has high leaf-viewing value. A MYB transcription factor gene, designated as PqMYB4, was isolated of P. based on transcriptome datas. The full-length cDNA PqMYB4 693 bp, encoding 230 amino acids. Sequence alignment phylogenetic analysis revealed that R2R3-MYB clustered with AtMYB4 in Arabidopsis thaliana. Moreover, contained C1 motif, an EAR repression motif...
Summary Wood is the most important repository of assimilated carbon in biosphere, form large polymers (cellulose, hemicelluloses including glucuronoxylan, and lignin) that interactively a composite, together with soluble extractives phenolic aliphatic compounds. Molecular interactions among these compounds are not fully understood. We have targeted expression fungal α‐glucuronidase to wood cell wall aspen ( Populus tremula L. × tremuloides Michx.) Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh), decrease...
In plants, plasmodesmata establish cytoplasmic continuity between cells to allow for communication and resource exchange across the cell wall. While plant pathogens use as a pathway both molecular physical invasion, benefits of invasion (cell-to-cell movement pathogen effectors) are poorly understood. To methodology identification characterization cell-to-cell mobility effectors, we performed quantitative live imaging-based screen candidate effectors fungal Colletotrichum higginsianum. We...
Abstract The plasma membrane (PM) that lines plasmodesmata has a distinct protein and lipid composition, underpinning specific regulation of these connections between cells. plasmodesmal PM can integrate extracellular signals differently from the cellular PM, but it is not known how this specificity established or single stimulus trigger independent signalling cascades in neighbouring domains. Here we have used fungal elicitor chitin to investigate signal integration responses at PM. We...
Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUMSCs) belong to a multipotent cell population. Transplantation of icariin (ICA)-treated hUMSCs have better tissue repairing function in chronic liver injury. This study was investigate whether the tissue-repairing effects and migration after ICA treatment were regulated by circular RNAs (circRNAs). used treat vitro for 1 week expression profiles circRNAs generated using RNA sequencing. Differentially expressed intervention screened. Gene...
The proximity ligation-based Hi-C and derivative methods are the mainstream tools to study genome-wide chromatin interactions. These often fragment genome using enzymes functionally irrelevant interactions per se, restraining efficiency in identifying structural features underlying regulatory elements. Here we present Footprint-C, which yields high-resolution contact maps built upon intact genuine footprints protected by transcription factor (TF) binding. When analyzed at one-dimensional...
Abstract Multicellular organisms require dynamic communication between cells, tissues and organs to integrate responses external internal signals. In plants, cell-to-cell relies in part on plasmodesmata, which connect adjacent cells allow the exchange of signals resources. Upon infection by pathogens, plants act isolate infected from non-infected closing plasmodesmata but pathogens can suppress this defence maintain an open state. To address question what a pathogen might gain keeping open,...
Summary Multicellular organisms exchange information and resources between cells to co-ordinate growth responses. In plants, plasmodesmata establish cytoplasmic continuity allow for communication resource across the cell wall. Some plant pathogens use as a pathway both molecular physical invasion. However, benefits of invasion (cell-to-cell movement pathogen effectors) are poorly understood. To begin investigate this identify which effectors cell-to-cell mobile, we performed live...
