TLDR
An analysis of 715 Arabidopsis thaliana sequences from SWISS‐PROT suggests that the ChloroP method should be useful for the identification of putative transit peptides in genome‐wide sequence data.Abstract:
We present a neural network based method (ChloroP) for identifying chloroplast transit peptides and their cleavage sites. Using cross-validation, 88% of the sequences in our homology reduced training set were correctly classified as transit peptides or nontransit peptides. This performance level is well above that of the publicly available chloroplast localization predictor PSORT. Cleavage sites are predicted using a scoring matrix derived by an automatic motif-finding algorithm. Approximately 60% of the known cleavage sites in our sequence collection were predicted to within +/-2 residues from the cleavage sites given in SWISS-PROT. An analysis of 715 Arabidopsis thaliana sequences from SWISS-PROT suggests that the ChloroP method should be useful for the identification of putative transit peptides in genome-wide sequence data. The ChloroP predictor is available as a web-server at http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/ChloroP/.read more

TL;DR: It is concluded that GmPT01 are possibly one of the loci involved in conferring partial resistance against stem and root rot disease in soybean and is associated with a quantitative trait loci linked with resistance to P. sojae.

TL;DR: Green fluorescent protein fusions were obtained in order to characterize the sub-cellular localization of the AtGRP5 protein, and indicated that this protein is the first described vacuolar GRP.

TL;DR: Two up-regulatory LS mutations that allosterically activate the potato enzyme, a stem isoform, were introduced into the corresponding Arabidopsis LS sequences and co-expressed with wild-type SS, indicating that these specific residue changes were also operational in the leaf isoform.
