TLDR
Genevestigator as mentioned in this paper is a web-browser interface for gene expression analysis using Affymetrix GeneChip data, which allows users to retrieve the expression patterns of individual genes throughout chosen environmental conditions, growth stages, or organs.
Abstract
High-throughput gene expression analysis has become a frequent and powerful research tool in biology. At present, however, few software applications have been developed for biologists to query large microarray gene expression databases using a Web-browser interface. We present GENEVESTIGATOR, a database and Web-browser data mining interface for Affymetrix GeneChip data. Users can query the database to retrieve the expression patterns of individual genes throughout chosen environmental conditions, growth stages, or organs. Reversely, mining tools allow users to identify genes specifically expressed during selected stresses, growth stages, or in particular organs. Using GENEVESTIGATOR, the gene expression profiles of more than 22,000 Arabidopsis genes can be obtained, including those of 10,600 currently uncharacterized genes. The objective of this software application is to direct gene functional discovery and design of new experiments by providing plant biologists with contextual information on the expression of genes. The database and analysis toolbox is available as a community resource at https://www.genevestigator.ethz.ch.

The COMATOSE ATP-binding cassette transporter is required for full fertility in Arabidopsis.

TL;DR: The data support an important role for β-oxidation in fertility in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) and suggest that this pathway could play a role in the mobilization of lipids in both pollen and female tissues.

Synergistic use of plant-prokaryote comparative genomics for functional annotations

TL;DR: This approach bridges the gap between automated homology-based annotations and the classical gene discovery efforts of experimentalists, and is more powerful than purely computational approaches to identifying gene-function associations.

The Arabidopsis TRM1–TON1 Interaction Reveals a Recruitment Network Common to Plant Cortical Microtubule Arrays and Eukaryotic Centrosomes

TL;DR: A novel superfamily of 34 proteins conserved in land plants, the TON1 Recruiting Motif (TRM) proteins, which share six short conserved motifs, including a Ton1-interacting motif present in all TRMs are identified, suggest conservation of eukaryotic centrosomal components in plant cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Arabidopsis tetratricopeptide repeat-containing protein TTL1 is required for osmotic stress responses and abscisic acid sensitivity.

TL;DR: TTL1 is identified as a positive regulator of ABA signaling during germination and seedling development under stress and is associated with gibberellin responses and ethylene biosynthesis.

Arabidopsis 10-Formyl Tetrahydrofolate Deformylases Are Essential for Photorespiration

TL;DR: These findings are consistent with the involvement of At4g17360 and At5g47435 proteins in photorespiration, which is to prevent excessive accumulation of 5-formyl THF, a potent inhibitor of the Gly decarboxylase/Ser hydroxymethyltransferase complex.

Gene Ontology: tool for the unification of biology

TL;DR: The goal of the Gene Ontology Consortium is to produce a dynamic, controlled vocabulary that can be applied to all eukaryotes even as knowledge of gene and protein roles in cells is accumulating and changing.

Gene Expression Omnibus: NCBI gene expression and hybridization array data repository

TL;DR: The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) project was initiated in response to the growing demand for a public repository for high-throughput gene expression data and provides a flexible and open design that facilitates submission, storage and retrieval of heterogeneous data sets from high-power gene expression and genomic hybridization experiments.

Analysis of the genome sequence of the flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana.

TL;DR: This is the first complete genome sequence of a plant and provides the foundations for more comprehensive comparison of conserved processes in all eukaryotes, identifying a wide range of plant-specific gene functions and establishing rapid systematic ways to identify genes for crop improvement.

Expression monitoring by hybridization to high density oligonucleotide arrays

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method for monitoring the expression levels of a multiplicity of genes by hybridizing a nucleic acid sample to a high density array of oligonucleotide probes and quantifying the hybridized nucleic acids in the array.

Hierarchical Organization of Modularity in Metabolic Networks

TL;DR: It is shown that the metabolic networks of 43 distinct organisms are organized into many small, highly connected topologic modules that combine in a hierarchical manner into larger, less cohesive units, with their number and degree of clustering following a power law.
