The Phaeodactylum genome reveals the evolutionary history of diatom genomes

Chris Bowler, +78 more
- 13 Nov 2008 - 
TL;DR: Analysis of molecular divergence compared with yeasts and metazoans reveals rapid rates of gene diversification in diatoms, and documents the presence of hundreds of genes from bacteria, likely to provide novel possibilities for metabolite management and for perception of environmental signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

UV-B photoreceptor-mediated signalling in plants

TL;DR: The current understanding of the UVR8 photoreceptor-mediated pathway is reviewed in the context of UV-B perception mechanism, early signalling components and physiological responses, as well as highlighting differences between these pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular toolbox for studying diatom biology in Phaeodactylum tricornutum.

TL;DR: The identification of several reference genes that can be used as internal standards for gene expression studies by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) in P. tricornutum cells grown over a diel cycle are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

The UVR8 UV-B Photoreceptor: Perception, Signaling and Response

TL;DR: UVR8 UV-B signaling represents the further understanding of how plants are able to sense their light environment and adjust their growth accordingly and is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Negative feedback regulation of UV-B–induced photomorphogenesis and stress acclimation in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: Two highly related WD40-repeat proteins, REPRESSOR of UV-B PHOTOMORPHOGENESIS 1 (RUP1) and RUP2, are described that interact directly with UVR8 as potent repressors ofUV-B signaling, consistent with an important regulatory role for RUP1 and Rup2.
