Characterization and Expression of a Wound-Inducible Proteinase Inhibitor II...
SummaryAn 8-kb fragment of potato DNA containing the potato Inhibitor II gene (called Inhibitor IIK gene) was isolated from a library of EcoRI-restricted potato DNA in λ bacteriophage. A 2.6-kb TaqI...

AbstractGenomic blotting of restriction fragments of Russet Burbank DNA indicated that at least 6 copies of Inhibitor I are present in the tetraploid potato genome. A library of potato genes in...

AbstractTo address the question whether common signal(s) and transduction pathways are used to mediate a systemic wound response in monocot and dicot plants, a fusion of the potato proteinase inhibitor...

AbstractWe have identified 39 Arabidopsis thaliana ESTs encoding germin-like proteins (GLPs) and have completely sequenced 25 of these cDNAs. Our analysis demonstrates that the Arabidopsis genome...

AbstractWe have identified a limited number of proteins secreted into the nectar of tobacco plants. Nectarin I is the most highly expressed nectar protein and has a monomer molecular mass of 29 kDa....

AbstractTwo Expressed Sequence Tagged (EST) clones were identified from the Arabidopsis database as encoding putative cytidine deaminases. Sequence analysis determined that the two clones overlapped...

AbstractThe major protein secreted into the nectar of tobacco plants (Nectarin I) is a germin-like protein that has superoxide dismutase activity. We have isolated the gene encoding Nectarin I (NECI)...

AbstractTobacco plants secrete a limited array of proteins (nectarins) into their floral nectar. N-terminal sequencing of the Nectarin II (NEC2; 35kD) and the Nectarin III (NEC3; 40kD) proteins...
