Analysis and functional annotation of an expressed sequence tag collection for tropical crop sugarcane.

André Luiz Vettore, +59 more
- 01 Dec 2003 - 
TL;DR: A global analysis of the whole SUCEST data set indicated that 14,409 assembled sequences contained at least one cDNA clone with a full-length insert, which indicated that possibly 33,620 unique genes had been identified and indicated that >90% of the sugarcane expressed genes were tagged.

Sugarcane Phosphoribosyl Pyrophosphate Synthetase: Molecular Characterization of a Phosphate-independent PRS

TL;DR: A molecular model reveals the formation of two conserved domains elucidating the structural features involved in sugarcane PRS phosphate independence, and the recombinant PRS retains secondary structure elements and a quaternary arrangement consistent with known PRS homologues, based on circular dichroism measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of sugarcane genes involved in the purine synthesis pathway

TL;DR: The strategy described in this paper was applied to identify sugarcane clusters for each step of the de novo purine synthesis pathway using Representative sequences of this pathway chosen from the National Center for Biotechnology Information database and used to search the translated Sugarcane expressed sequence tag database using the available basic local alignment search tool (BLAST) facility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preliminary crystallographic analysis of sugar cane phosphoribosylpyrophosphate synthase

TL;DR: The sugar cane PRS enzyme contains 328 amino acids with a molecular weight of 36.6 kDa and represents the first plant PRS to be crystallized, as well as the first phosphate-independent PRSto be studied in molecular detail.
