Characterization of MADS-domain transcription factor complexes in Arabidopsis flower development
Cezary Smaczniak,Richard G. H. Immink,Jose M. Muiño,Robert Blanvillain,Marco Busscher,Jacqueline Busscher-Lange,Quy Dung Dinh,Shujing Liu,Adrie H. Westphal,Sjef Boeren,François Parcy,Lin Xu,Cristel C. Carles,Gerco C. Angenent,Kerstin Kaufmann +14 more
TL;DR: A targeted proteomics approach was able to establish a MADS-domain protein interactome that strongly supports a mechanistic link between MADs-domain proteins and chromatin remodeling factors and members of other transcription factor families were identified as interaction partners suggesting various specific combinatorial modes of action.
Journal ArticleDOI
Less is better: new approaches for seedless fruit production
TL;DR: This work aims to provide a clear picture of the phytochemical properties of seedless fruits and investigates whether these properties can be modified to improve the quality of the fruit and reduce the risk of spoilage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulatory Shifts in Plastid Transcription Play a Key Role in Morphological Conversions of Plastids during Plant Development.
Monique Liebers,Björn Grübler,Fabien Chevalier,Silva Lerbs-Mache,Livia Merendino,Robert Blanvillain,Thomas Pfannschmidt +6 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesize that each conversion from one plastid type into another is either accompanied or even preceded by significant changes in plastsid transcription suggesting that these changes represent important determinants of plastID morphology and protein composition and, hence, the plastids type.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plastid RNA polymerases: orchestration of enzymes with different evolutionary origins controls chloroplast biogenesis during the plant life cycle
Thomas Pfannschmidt,Robert Blanvillain,Livia Merendino,Florence Courtois,Fabien Chevalier,Monique Liebers,Björn Grübler,Elisabeth Hommel,Silva Lerbs-Mache +8 more
TL;DR: This review focuses on the activation and action of plastid RNA polymerases, which play a key role in the development of new chloroplasts from proplastids and provides working models of their sequential expression and function.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Arabidopsis peptide KISS OF DEATH is an inducer of Programmed Cell Death
Robert Blanvillain,Bennett Young,Yao Min Cai,Valérie Hecht,Fabrice Varoquaux,Valérie Delorme,Jean-Marc Lancelin,Michel Delseny,Patrick Gallois +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify kiss of death (KOD) encoding a 25-amino acid peptide that activates a PCD pathway in Arabidopsis thaliana, and two mutant alleles of KOD exhibited a reduced PCD of the suspensor, a single file of cells that support embryo development, and a reducedPCD of root hairs after a 55°C heat shock.
