Q2. What primers were used for the first guide?
For targeting the active domain, the primers 5’-atatatggtctcgattggaggattacaattttccaggtt-3’ and 5’- tggaggattacaattttccaggttttagagctagaaatagc-3’ were used for the first guide and 5’- aacccaaccccactttcatttctaatctcttagtcgactctac-3’ and 5’-attattggtctcgaaacccaaccccactttcatttctaa-3’ for the second guide.
Q3. How many vectors were generated for targeting the 5’ end of the gene?
2 vectors were generated, one for targeting the 5’ end of the gene with 2 guides and the second for targeting the active (peptide encoding) domain with 2 guides.
Q4. What is the role of the subtilase in cuticle surveillance?
Cuticle surveillance depends on the action of the subtilase which, unlike the TWS1 precursor andthe GASSHO receptors, is not produced in the embryo but in the neighboring endosperm.
Q5. How many independent transformation events of pRGP3::TWS1 were analysed?
For each line, at least 400seeds from 4 independent plants were analysed A) 4 independent transformation events of pRGP3::TWS1 in ale1-4 compared to ale1-4 and Col-0.
Q6. How many glycerols were eluted with the GST-tagged proteins?
GST-tagged proteins were eluted with six 500 µL aliquots of elution buffer (50 mM Tris pH 8.0, 0.4 M NaCl, 50 mM reduced glutathione, 0.1% Triton X-100, 1 mM DTT).
Q7. What was the spectra for the abundant peptide precursors?
Data-dependent MS/MS spectra were generated for the 20 most abundant peptide precursors using high energy collision dissociation (HCD) fragmentation at a resolution of 15000 with normalized collision energy of 27.
Q8. What is the phenotype of tpst-1 gso1?
Identification of the peptide signal was facilitated by a study of TWISTED SEED1 (TWS1) (14),that reported a loss-of-function phenotype strikingly similar to that of gso1 gso2 double mutants.
Q9. What is the pathway that regulates the deposition of the embryonic cuticle?
This pathwayregulates the deposition of the embryonic cuticle which forms an essential hydrophobic barrierseparating the apoplasts of the embryo and endosperm.
Q10. How can the authors use CRISPR/Cas to engineer plants?
F. Fauser, S. Schiml, H. Puchta, Both CRISPR/Cas-based nucleases and nickases can be usedefficiently for genome engineering in Arabidopsis thaliana.
