Salinity and drought severely affect both plant growth productivity, making the isolation characterization of salinity- or drought-inducible promoters suitable for genetic improvement crop resistance highly desirable. In this study, a 1468-bp sequence upstream translation initiation codon ATG promoter ZmGAPP (maize Type-II H+-pyrophosphatase gene) was cloned. Nine 5´ deletion fragments (D1–D9) different lengths were fused with GUS reporter translocated into tobacco. The analysis showed that...
Salinity and drought often affect plant growth crop yields. Cloning identification of salinity stress inducible promoters is great significance for their use in the genetic improvement resistance. Previous studies showed that phosphatidylinositol synthase involved responses but its promoter has not been characterized by far. In study, (pZmPIS, 1834 bp upstream region translation initiation site) was isolated from maize genome. To functionally validate promoter, eight 5' deletion fragments...
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)–associated degradation (ERAD) plays key roles in controlling protein levels and quality eukaryotes. The Ring Finger Protein 185 (RNF185)/membralin ubiquitin ligase complex was recently identified as a branch mammals is essential for neuronal function, but its function plant development unknown. Here, we report the map-based cloning characterization of Narrow Leaf Dwarfism 1 ( NLD1 ), which encodes ER membrane–localized membralin specifically interacts with maize...
