Journal ArticleDOI
Activation tagging, a novel tool to dissect the functions of a gene family
Miki Nakazawa,Takanari Ichikawa,Akie Ishikawa,Hiroko Kobayashi,Yumi Tsuhara,Mika Kawashima,Kumiko Suzuki,Shu Muto,Minami Matsui +8 more
TL;DR: Results strongly suggest that activation tagging is a powerful mutant-mining tool especially for genes that make up a gene family.
Journal ArticleDOI
RETARDED GROWTH OF EMBRYO1, a new basic helix-loop-helix protein, expresses in endosperm to control embryo growth.
Youichi Kondou,Miki Nakazawa,Mika Kawashima,Takanari Ichikawa,Takeshi Yoshizumi,Kumiko Suzuki,Akie Ishikawa,Tomoko Koshi,Ryo Matsui,Shu Muto,Minami Matsui +10 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that RGE1 expression in the endosperm at the heart stage of embryo development plays an important role in controlling embryo growth, and possible involvement of these genes in seed morphology is indicated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequence database of 1172 T-DNA insertion sites in Arabidopsis activation-tagging lines that showed phenotypes in T1 generation.
Takanari Ichikawa,Miki Nakazawa,Mika Kawashima,Shu Muto,Kazushi Gohda,Kumiko Suzuki,Akie Ishikawa,Hiroko Kobayashi,Takeshi Yoshizumi,Yuko Tsumoto,Yumi Tsuhara,Haruko Iizumi,Yukiko Goto,Minami Matsui +13 more
TL;DR: Mapping of the integration sites revealed that the chromosomal distribution of these sites is similar to that observed in conventional T-DNA knock-out lines, except that the intragenic type of integration is slightly lower in the AT1P plants compared to that seen in other random knock- out populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Trihelix Transcription Factor GTL1 Regulates Ploidy-Dependent Cell Growth in the Arabidopsis Trichome
Christian Breuer,Ayako Kawamura,Takanari Ichikawa,Rumi Tominaga-Wada,Takuji Wada,Youichi Kondou,Shu Muto,Minami Matsui,Keiko Sugimoto +8 more
TL;DR: The genetic evidence for the requirement of transcriptional regulation in the repression of ploidy-dependent plant cell growth as well as for an involvement of GTL trihelix proteins in this regulation is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overexpression of DWARF AND LESION FORMATION 1 (DLE1) causes altered activation of plant defense system in Arabidopsis thaliana
Youichi Kondou,Kosuke Noguchi,Shinsuke Kutsuna,Mika Kawashima,Arata Yoneda,Mio Ishibashi,Shu Muto,Takanari Ichikawa,Miki Nakazawa,Minami Matsui,Katsushi Manabe +10 more
TL;DR: Microarray and gene ontology analyses revealed that defense response genes, especially to biotic stimulus, were enriched in DLE1 overexpressing plants and may function in the plant defense system responding to environmental stimuli including biotic stresses in the ER.
