Differential display technique was used to study the gene expression of Tamarix androssowii treated with NaHCO(3) solution. Seventeen differentially expressed genes were obtained through Northern detection. The result of BLASTX analysis shows that two of these genes (GenBank accession number
Cadmium (Cd) is a nonessential microelement and low concentration Cd2+ has strong toxicity to plant growth. Plant metallothioneins, a class of low molecular, cystein(Cys)-rich and heavy-metal binding proteins, play an important role in both metal chaperoning and scavenging of reactive oxygen species
BACKGROUND
The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A) promotes formation of the first peptide bond at the onset of protein synthesis. However, the function of eIF5A in plants is not well understood.
RESULTS
In this study, we characterized the function of eIF5A (TaeIF5A1) from Tamarix
