Analysis of 1.9 Mb of contiguous sequence from chromosome 4 of Arabidopsis thaliana

TL;DR: Analysis of the sequence revealed an average gene density of one gene every 4.8 kilobases, and 54% of the predicted genes had significant similarity to known genes, and other interesting features were found, such as the sequence of a disease-resistance gene locus, the distribution of retroelements, and the frequent occurrence of clustered gene families.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence and analysis of chromosome 4 of the plant Arabidopsis thaliana

Klaus F. X. Mayer, +233 more
- 16 Dec 1999 - 
TL;DR: Analysis of 17.38 megabases of unique sequence, representing about 17% of the Arabidopsis genome, reveals 3,744 protein coding genes, 81 transfer RNAs and numerous repeat elements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transposon tagging of a male sterility gene in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: Critical evidence that the Inhibitor-element-containing gene is involved in the male sterile phenotype is provided by the DNA sequences of new excision-derived alleles from independent stable fertile and male sterile progeny of the original mutant.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular cloning and analysis of four potato tuber mRNAs.

TL;DR: Using Southern blot analysis of potato DNA, it is estimated that four mRNAs encoded by small multigene families constitute approximately 50% of the soluble tuber protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of biologically active hordothionins in tobacco. Effects of pre- and pro-sequences at the amino and carboxyl termini of the hordothionin precursor on mature protein expression and sorting.

TL;DR: The results indicated that the AP is not involved in sorting and suggested that it might facilitate transport through membranes.
