Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of genes involved in cytokinin signaling and metabolism from rice
Yu-Chang Tsai,Nicholas R. Weir,Kristine Hill,Wenjing Zhang,Hyo Jung Kim,Shin-Han Shiu,G. Eric Schaller,Joseph J. Kieber +7 more
TL;DR: A shared role for two-component elements in mediating cytokinin signaling in monocots and dicots is supported and how phytohormones can impact cytokinIn function through modulating gene expression is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytokinin Induces Cell Division in the Quiescent Center of the Arabidopsis Root Apical Meristem
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that cytokinin promotes cell division in the QC, which is generally mitotically inactive, and acts to regulate auxin distribution in the root apical meristem by regulating both the PINs and LAX2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytokinin induces genome-wide binding of the type-B response regulator ARR10 to regulate growth and development in Arabidopsis
Yan O. Zubo,Ivory C. Blakley,Maria V. Yamburenko,Jennifer M. Worthen,Ian H. Street,José Manuel Franco-Zorrilla,Wenjing Zhang,Kristine Hill,Tracy Raines,Roberto Solano,Joseph J. Kieber,Ann E. Loraine,G. Eric Schaller +12 more
TL;DR: The transcriptional network initiated by the type-B ARABIDOPSIS RESPONSE REGULATORs that mediate the cytokinin primary response was characterized, making use of chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq), protein-binding microarrays, and transcriptomic approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Type‐A response regulators are required for proper root apical meristem function through post‐transcriptional regulation of PIN auxin efflux carriers
TL;DR: It is shown that disruption of type-A Arabidopsis response regulators (ARRs), which are negative regulators of cytokinin signalling, alters the levels of PIN proteins and results in increased sensitivity to N-1-naphthylphthalamic acid, an inhibitor of polar auxin transport.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of WxL and S-Layer Proteins from Lactobacillus brevis with the Ability to Bind Cellulose and Xylan
Zhenzhen Hao,Wenjing Zhang,Xiaolu Wang,Yuan Wang,Xing-Mei Qin,Huiying Luo,Huoqing Huang,Xiaoyun Su +7 more
TL;DR: A role of the cell-surface WxL and S-layer proteins in assisting the cellular adhesion of L. brevis to plant cell wall polysaccharides is suggested.
