Spatial and temporal changes in the distribution of mRNA sequences during anther and pollen development in rice (Oryza sativa) were investigated by in situ hybridization with [3H]polyuridylic acid ([3H]poly(U)) and a cloned rice histone gene probe. Annealing of sections with [3H]poly(U) showed that
Histone H3 is one of the four histones, along with H2A, H2B, and H4, which form the eukaryotic nucleosome octamer core. In this study, a new gene RH3.2A encoding an H3.2-type histone H3 protein from rice (Oryza sativa L.) was reported. RH3.2A was cloned through RT-PCR from salt-treated rice
As a key epigenetic modification, the methylation of histone H3 lysine 36 (H3K36) modulates chromatin structure and is involved in diverse biological processes. To better understand the language of H3K36 methylation in rice (Oryza sativa), we chose potential histone methylation enzymes for
The cell wall is a critical extracellular structure that provides protection and structural support in plant cells. To study the biological function of the cell wall and the regulation of cell wall resynthesis, we examined cellular responses to enzymatic removal of the cell wall in rice (Oryza
As a histone variant, H2A.Z is highly conserved among species and plays a significant role in diverse cellular processes. Here, we generated genome-wide maps of H2A.Z in Oryza sativa (rice) callus and seedling by combining chromatin immunoprecipitation using H2A.Z antibody and high-throughput
While previous studies have shown that histone modifications could influence plant growth and development by regulating gene transcription, knowledge about the relationships between these modifications and gene expression is still limited. This study used chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by
Flowering time is a critical trait for crops cultivated under various temperature/photoperiod conditions around the world. To understand better the flowering time of rice, we used the vector pTCK303 to produce several lines of RNAi knockdown transgenic rice and investigated their flowering times and
Anti-inflammatory drugs are often of limited use due to low efficacy and toxic effects. The present study describes the anti-inflammatory effects of a novel nonapeptide termed IIIM1, using the mouse hind paw edema as an experimental model of inflammation. Multiple prophylactic injections of IIIM1
BACKGROUND
Histone acetyltransferases (HATs) play an important role in eukaryotic transcription. Eight HATs identified in rice (OsHATs) can be organized into four families, namely the CBP (OsHAC701, OsHAC703, and OsHAC704), TAFII250 (OsHAF701), GNAT (OsHAG702, OsHAG703, and OsHAG704), and MYST
Histone H2B monoubiquitination (H2Bub1) is an important regulatory mechanism in eukaryotic gene transcription and is essential for normal plant development. However, the function of H2Bub1 in reproductive development remains elusive. Here, we report rice (Oryza sativa) HISTONE MONOUBIQUITINATION1
In plants, reversible histone acetylation and deacetylation play a crucial role in various biological activities, including development and the response to environmental stress. Histone deacetylation, which is generally associated with gene silencing, is catalyzed by multiple histone deacetylases
The juvenile-to-adult transition in plants involves changes in vegetative growth and plant architecture; the timing of this transition has important implications for agriculture. The microRNA miR156 regulates this transition and shoot maturation in plants. In Arabidopsis thaliana, deposition of
Histones, acting as the core of nucleosome, are the chief protein component of chromatin. They play an important role in gene regulation by covalent modification at several sites and histone variants replacement. Five major families of histones exist: H1, H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. The protein sequences
Histone H3 proteins were purified to near homogeneity from etiolated seedlings of wheat (Triticum aestivum), barley (Hordeum vulgare), rice (Oryza sativa), maize (Zea mays), and alfalfa (Medicago sativa) to determine the number of histone H3 variants. Five distinct histone H3 variants were
Promotive effect of brassinolide (BL) on green lamina inclination was concentration-dependent when excised rice (Oryza sativa L.) lamina was floated on BL solution under continuous light conditions. Protein kinase inhibitor staurosporine and Ca2+ channel blocker LaCl3 could completely, while Ca2+
