Journal ArticleDOI
Inactivation of rice starch branching enzyme IIb triggers broad and unexpected changes in metabolism by transcriptional reprogramming
Can Baysal,Wenshu He,Margit Drapal,Gemma Villorbina,Vicente Medina,Teresa Capell,Gurdev S. Khush,Changfu Zhu,Paul D. Fraser,Paul Christou +9 more
TL;DR: Insight is provided into the broader implications of perturbing starch metabolism in rice endosperm and its impact on the whole plant, which will make it easier to predict the effect of metabolic engineering in cereals for nutritional improvement or the production of valuable metabolites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome editing in cereal crops: an overview.
Jerlie Mhay Matres,Julia Hilscher,Akash Datta,Victoria Armario-Najera,Can Baysal,Wenshu He,Xin Huang,Changfu Zhu,Rana Valizadeh-Kamran,Rana Valizadeh-Kamran,Kurniawan Rudi Trijatmiko,Teresa Capell,Paul Christou,Eva Stoger,Inez H. Slamet-Loedin +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an analysis of the current state of genome editing in the major cereal crops (i.e., rice, maize, wheat, and barley) and discuss the technical and regulatory challenges that need to be overcome for the technology to realize its full potential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrogenase Cofactor Maturase NifB Isolated from Transgenic Rice is Active in FeMo-co Synthesis
TL;DR: NifB protein expression and purification from an engineered staple crop is reported, representing a first step in the biosynthesis of a functional NifDK complex, as required for independent biological nitrogen fixation in cereals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional expression of the nitrogenase Fe protein in transgenic rice
TL;DR: In this paper , a transgenic rice plant expressing the nitrogenase structural component, Fe protein (NifH), which carries a [4Fe-4S] cluster in its active form was generated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Coordinated Upregulated Expression of Genes Involved in MEP, Chlorophyll, Carotenoid and Tocopherol Pathways, Mirrored the Corresponding Metabolite Contents in Rice Leaves during De-Etiolation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of 4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-enyl diphosphate reductase 1/2 genes (OsHDR1/2) on the biosynthesis of chlorophyll, carotenoid, and phytosterols in 14-day-old etiolated rice (Oyza sativa L.) leaves during de-etiolation was investigated.
