The binding characteristics and molecular mechanism of the interaction between a typical ionic liquid (IL), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([bmim]Cl), as green solvent DNA were investigated for first time by conductivity measurements, fluorescence spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM), circular dichroism 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) Fourier transform infrared isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), quantum chemical...
Abstract Background Generating elite rice varieties with high yield and superior quality is the main goal of breeding programs. Key agronomic traits, including grain size seed germination characteristics, affect final rice. The RGA1 gene, which encodes α-subunit G-protein, plays an important role in regulating architecture, abiotic stress responses. However, whether involved regulation traits still unclear. Results In this study, a mutant small round 5 ( srg5 ), was identified EMS-induced...
Heterotrimeric G protein-mediated signal transduction is one of the most important and highly conserved signaling pathways in eukaryotes, which involves regulation many biological processes. As compared with those mammals Arabidopsis thaliana, functions rice heterotrimeric protein their molecular mechanisms are largely unknown. The genome contains a single Gα (RGA1) Gβ (RGB1), five Gγ (RGG1, RGG2, GS3, DEP1/qPE9-1, GGC2) subunits. Recent genetic studies have shown that an atypical putative...
Low phosphate (Pi) availability decreases photosynthesis, with limitation of photosynthesis occurring particularly during grain filling cereal crops; however, effective genetic solutions remain to be established. We previously discovered that rice transporter OsPHO1;2 controls seed (sink) development through Pi reallocation filling. Here, we find regulates homeostasis and thus in leaves (source). Loss-of-function decreased levels leaves, leading photosynthetic electron transport activity, CO...
Polyploids in citrus are generally used to improve crop varieties. Changshan Huyou (Citrus changshan-huyou) is a native species China that highly adaptable and has pharmaceutical value. However, the influence following polyploidization remains unclear. Here we evaluated adult tetraploid scions of with contemporary diploid as control phenotypic variations, metabolic alterations fruits associated transcriptomic changes. The had rounder thicker leaves, larger floral organs fruits, satisfactory...
Objective This study aims to identify risk factors of colorectal cancer in a middle-aged and elder Chinese population over 45 years old provide evidence for preventing China. Method The China Health Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) is nationally representative cohort used research on demography, lifestyle characteristics population. logistic regression model was estimate the odds ratio (OR) corresponding confidence interval (95% CI) using maximum likelihood method. Univariate performed...
Abstract Background Grain size is an extremely important aspect of rice breeding, affecting both grain yield and quality traits. It controlled by multiple genes tracking these in breeding schemes should expedite selection lines with superior quality, thus it essential to develop robust, efficient markers. Result In this study, 14 related ( GW2 , GS2 qLGY3 GS3 GL3.1 TGW3 GS5 GW5 GS6 TGW6 GW6a GLW7 GL7 GW8 ) were selected for functional marker development. Twenty-one PCR-gel-based markers...
Optimized source-sink interactions are determinants of both rice yield and quality. However, most source genes have not been well studied in rice, a major grain crop. In this study, OsBMY4 OsISA3, the key β-amylase debranching enzymes that control transient starch degradation leaves, were co-overexpressed order to accelerate efficiency increase sugar supply for sink organs. Systematic analyses transgenic indicated co-overexpression OsISA3 only promoted quality, but also improved seed...
Prolactin (PRL) has been demonstrated as a metabolic hormone to regulate energy metabolism recently. The present study aims investigate the association between PRL and alterations in different obesity phenotypes.
Phytosulfokines (PSKs) are a class of tyrosine-sulfated pentapeptides. PSK-α, PSK-γ, and PSK-δ three reported PSK members involved in regulating plant growth, development, resistance to biotic abiotic stresses. Here, we novel type PSK, PSK-ε with the sequence YSO3VYSO3TN, its precursor proteins (MtPSKε, LjPSKε, GmPSKε), specifically from legume species. peptide differs by one amino acid is close phylogenetic relationship. Expression profile analysis showed that MtPSKε was highly expressed...
The panicle architecture and grain size of rice affect not only yield but also quality, especially appearance. erect-panicle (EP) trait controlled by the qpe9-1/dep1 allele has been widely used in high-yielding japonica breeding, usually accompanied with moderate appearance milled rice. null gs9 shows a good potential for improving shape However, GS9 qPE9-1/DEP1 loci are tightly linked, their interaction is unclear, which obviously restricts utilization modern breeding. In present study,...
Seed development is critical for plant reproduction and crop yield, with panicle seed-setting rate, grain-filling, grain weight being key seed characteristics yield improvement. However, few genes are known to regulate filling. Here, we identify two adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC)I-type transporter genes, OsABCI15 OsABCI16, involved in rice grain-filling. Both highly expressed developing seeds, their proteins localized the plasma membrane cytosol. Interestingly, knockout...
The current study was undertaken to determine the effect of myostatin (MSTN) on lipid accumulation in porcine subcutaneous preadipocytes (PSPAs) and further explore potential molecular mechanisms. PSPAs isolated from Meishan weaned piglets were added with various concentrations MSTN recombinant protein during entire period adipogenic differentiation process. Results showed that treatment significantly reduced accumulation, intracellular triglyceride (TG) content, glucose consumption,...
Excessive lipid accumulation in adipocytes results prevalence of obesity and metabolic syndrome. Curcumin (CUR), a naturally phenolic active ingredient, has been shown to have lipid-lowering effects. However, its underlying mechanisms remained largely unknown. Therefore, the study aims determine effect CUR on cellular porcine subcutaneous preadipocytes (PSPA) clarify novel mechanisms.The PSPA were cultured treated with or without CUR. Both cell counting Kit-8 lactate dehydrogenase release...
