Journal ArticleDOI
The POLARIS Gene of Arabidopsis Encodes a Predicted Peptide Required for Correct Root Growth and Leaf Vascular Patterning
Stuart A. Casson,Paul M. Chilley,Jennifer F. Topping,I. Marta Evans,Martin A. Souter,Keith Lindsey +5 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that PLS is required for correct auxin-cytokinin homeostasis to modulate root growth and leaf vascular patterning.
Journal ArticleDOI
A gene from pea (Pisum sativum L.) with homology to metallothionein genes
TL;DR: While searching for ‘organ‐specific’ genes in pea, a gene is isolated which has an ORF encoding a predicted protein with some similarity to metallothioneins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterisation of the storage protein subunits synthesised in vitro by polyribosomes and RNA from developing pea (Pisum sativum L.) : II. Vicilin.
TL;DR: Evidence is presented to show that legumin, the major storage protein in Pisum, is synthesised in vitro by the wheat germ and reticulocyte lysate systems, from polyribosomes and mRNA isolated from developing pea seeds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell free synthesis of some storage protein subunits by polyribosomes and RNA isolated from developing seeds of pea ( Pisum sativum L.)
I. Marta Evans,Ronald R. D. Croy,Philippa Hutchinson,Donald Boulter,Peter I. Payne,Margaret E. Gordon +5 more
TL;DR: Polyribosomes which have template activity in the wheat germ system have been isolated from developing pea seeds and RNA fractions including poly A-rich RNA have been shown to direct the synthesis of polyripeptides whose properties are similar to the storage protein subunits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequence of the seed lectin gene from pea (Pisum sativum L.).
John A. Gatehouse,David P. Bown,I. Marta Evans,L. N. Gatehouse,David Jobes,Paul Preston,Ronald R. D. Croy +6 more
TL;DR: This gene was used to probe Southern blots of restriction digests of pea genomic DNA at high stringency of hybridisation, to determine the copy number of LecA, all digests gave a result indicating the presence of a single gene.
