azetidine 2 carboxylic acid/arabidopsis

Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid, the 4-membered ring noranalogue of proline, is regularly used in the study of proline metabolism as well as the study of protein conformation. We prepared D,L-[2,3-3H]azetidine-2-carboxylic acid with an optimized 10% yield from commercially available

The raz1 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. has been selected as resistant to the toxic proline analogue, azetidine-2-carboxylic acid (2AZ). Seedlings of the mutant tolerated fivefold higher concentrations of 2AZ (ED50 = 0.25 mM) than the wild-type seedlings (EC50 = 0.05 mM). The mutant gene

The Arabidopsis TMS1 encodes a heat shock protein identical to the Hsp40 protein AtERdj3A and plays important roles in the thermotolerance of pollen tubes and other plant tissues. Despite its importance to plant growth and reproduction, little has been known about its mechanisms underlying

Previously, we found that Arabidopsis plants transformed with a construct containing the promoter of Oshsp17.3 from rice fused to the β-glucuronidase gene (GUS), Oshsp17.3Pro::GUS (Oshsp17.3p), showed a GUS signal after heat shock (HS) or azetidine-2-carboxylic acid (AZC) treatment. HS and AZC
