Cytidine-diphospho-choline diacyl-glycerol phosphorylcholine phosphotransferase activity was demonstrated in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) microsomes and the incorporation of cytidine-diphospho[(14)C]choline into phosphatidylcholine was characterized by the time course of (14)C incorporation and the
Genome editing tools have rapidly been adopted by plant scientists for gene function discovery and crop improvement. The current technical challenge is to efficiently induce precise and predictable targeted point mutations valuable for crop breeding purposes. Cytidine base editors (CBEs) are
Five millimolar KCN reduced water permeability in 1-millimeter thick slices of potato tuber (Solanum tuberosum L.). One-tenth millimolar ATP and CTP prevented or reversed the reduced permeability. UTP and GTP were not effective. Five millimolar ammonium carbonate or 0.1 millimolar 2,4-dinitrophenol
Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTV), a small infectios RNA, has been completely digested with RNase T1 and RNase A, and the resulting oligonucleotides have been sequenced using 5'-terminal 32p-labelling with gamma-32p ATP and T4 polynucleotide kinase, fingerprinting and controlled nuclease P1
Translational readthrough of the stop codon of the capsid protein (CP) open reading frame (ORF) is used by members of the Luteoviridae to produce their minor capsid protein as a readthrough protein (RTP). The elements regulating RTP expression are not well understood, but they involve long-distance
Transcripts of higher plant mitochondria are modified post-transcriptionally by RNA editing. To distinguish between the mechanisms by which the cytidine to uridine transition could occur a combined transcription/RNA editing assay and an in vitro RNA editing system were investigated. Mitochondria
The outer mitochondrial membrane is particularly rich in phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns), a phospholipid found in different amounts in all eukaryotic membranes, but not synthesized in situ by all. PtdIns is therefore subjected to traffic from the synthesizing membranes to the non-synthesizing ones.
In order to obtain general metabolic profiles of pyrimidine ribo- and deoxyribonucleotides in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) plants, the in situ metabolic fate of various (14)C-labelled precursors in disks from growing potato tubers was investigated. The activities of key enzymes in potato tuber
Cytidine diphosphate (CDP)-diacylglycerol synthase (cytidine triphosphate:phosphatidate cytihyltransferase, EC 2.7.7.41) catalyzes the formation of CDP-diacylglycerol, which is the precursor of phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol, and cardiolipin. We report the first cloning, to our
Genome editing technology is important for plant science and crop breeding. Genome-edited plants prepared using general CRISPR-Cas9 methods usually contain foreign DNA, which is problematic for production of genome-edited transgene-free plants for vegetative propagation or highly heterozygous hybrid
The StGBSSI gene was successfully and precisely edited in the tetraploid potato using gene and base-editing strategies, leading to plants with impaired amylose biosynthesis. Genome editing has recently become a method of choice for basic research and functional genomics, and holds great potential
The RNA genomes of plant luteovirids beet western yellows virus (BWYV), potato leaf roll virus (PLRV), and pea enation mosaic virus (PEMV RNA1; PEMV-1) contain a short mRNA pseudoknotted motif overlapping the P1 and P2 open reading frames required for programmed -1 mRNA ribosomal frameshifting. The
Larch mitochondria contain a'native'tRNAHis which is absent from angiosperms. Sequence comparisons of genomic DNA and cDNA obtained from unprocessed primary transcripts of the larch mitochondrial gene trnH encoding this tRNA revealed three nucleotide discrepancies. These three nucleotide
Base editors (BEs) have been used to create C-to-T substitutions in various organisms. However, editing with rat APOBEC1-based BE3 is limited to a 5-nt sequence editing window and is inefficient in GC contexts. Here, we show that a base editor fusion protein composed of Cas9 nickase and human
