ribose/oryza sativa

Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are a kind of noncoding RNAs, and the vast majority of snoRNAs are involved in site-specific modifications of rRNAs. A novel box C/D snoRNA called snoR124 was found inOryza sativa, and it can direct 2'-O-ribose methylation of spliceosomal small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs).

A Gram-stain-positive, non-motile, creamy-white actinobacterium, which has an elementary branching rod-coccus life cycle was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of rice (Oryza sativa L.) collected from Northeast Agricultural University in Harbin, Heilongjiang province, north-east PR China, and

An endophytic actinomycete, strain R10-82(T), isolated from surface-sterilized roots of rice (Oryza sativa L.) was studied using a polyphasic approach. Strain R10-82(T) produced branching substrate mycelia and developed spherical spore vesicles on aerial hyphae containing non-motile spores. The

An actinobacterial strain, DCWR9-8-2(T), was isolated from a leaf of Thai upland rice (Oryza sativa) collected in Chumporn province, Thailand. Strain DCWR9-8-2(T) is Gram-stain-positive aerobic bacteria that produce single spores directly on the vegetative hypha. Cell wall peptidoglycan of this

A novel endophytic actinobacterium, designated strain RL12-1ST, was isolated from surface-sterilized leaves of Oryza sativa L. collected from Roi Et province, Thailand. Taxonomic position of strain RL12-1ST was studied using the polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analyses base on the 16S rRNA gene

A novel endophytic actinomycete, designated strain RS15-1S^T, was isolated from surface-sterilized stems of Oryza sativa L. collected from Sisaket province, Thailand. The colony of strain was strong orange, catalase-positive and oxidase-negative. Growth occurred at a temperature range of

A novel actinobacterium, designated strain NEAU-C40^T, was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of rice (Oryza sativa L.) collected from Northeast Agricultural University in Harbin, Heilongjiang province, north-east PR China, and was characterized using a polyphasic approach. On the

Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are required for ribose 2'-O-methylation of eukaryotic ribosomal RNA. By researching in international rice genome databases, a snoRNA gene cluster, consisting of three box C/D snoRNA gene candidates, was found on chromosome 6. All of snoRNA coding sequences in this

The taxonomic status of a rhizospheric soil actinomycete, designated R8-39(T), was established using a polyphasic approach. The organism had phenotypic and morphological characteristics consistent with its classification in the genus Allokutzneria. Phylogenetic analysis based on an almost complete

Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are required for ribose 2'-O-methylation of eukaryotic ribosomal RNA. Through computer search in international rice genome database, a novel U14 snoRNA gene cluster, consisting of two U14 snoRNA gene candidates, was found on rice chromosome II. They both have box C/D

An adequate supply of mineral nutrients is crucial to obtain optimum productivity in agriculture. The present investigation was carried to find the inoculation effect of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), i.e., Paenibacillus lentimorbus B-30488 (B-30488), Bacillus amyloliquefaciens SN13

Using a powerful computer-assisted analysis strategy, a large-scale search of small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) genes in the recently released draft sequence of the rice genome was carried out. This analysis identified 120 different box C/D snoRNA genes with a total of 346 gene variants, which were

Liver cancer is a leading cause of cancer death worldwide, and novel chemotherapeutic drugs to suppress liver cancer are urgently required. Isovitexin (IV), a glycosylflavonoid, is extracted from rice hulls of Oryza sativa, and has various biological activities. However, the anti-tumor effect of IV

The chloroplastic NAD kinase (NADK2) is reported to stimulate carbon and nitrogen assimilation in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), which is vulnerable to high light. Since rice (Oryza sativa) is a monocotyledonous plant that can adapt to high light, we studied the effects of NADK2 expression in

Here we have identified 18 different box C/D snoRNAs encoded in six new gene clusters by the screening of Oryza sativa (rice) genome sequences using a computer program that we have designed to search for non-canonical box C and D sequences. Among this snoRNA collection, five are homologues of
