AtBTH1, a BTB domain-containing protein, influences sugar-responsive germination and seedling growth in Arabidopsis
Authors: J.E. Hwang, Y.J. Kim, M.H. Shin, J. Park, W. Choi, D.J. Yun and H.C. Park
Sugars function as signal molecules that regulate gene expression, growth, and development in plants, animals, and yeasts. As a contribution to understanding the molecular mechanisms of sugar responses, we identified and characterized an Arabidopsis thaliana BTB domain-containing protein of the H subfamily 1 (designated AtBTH1). The relative expression le.. Read More»

A Medicago truncatula H+-pyrophosphatase gene, MtVP1, improves sucrose accumulation and anthocyanin biosynthesis in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.)
Authors: J.W. Wang, H.Q. Wang, W.W. Xiang and T.Y. Chai
We recently cloned MtVP1, a type I vacuolar-type H+-translocating inorganic pyrophosphatase from Medicago truncatula. In the present study, we investigated the cellular location and the function of this H+-PPase in Arabidopsis and potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). An MtVP1::enhanced green fluorescent protein fusion was constructe.. Read More»

Cloning and expression analysis of PpSUT2 encoding a sucrose transporter in pear
Authors: J. Tang, J. Lin, B.L. Zhang, Z.H. Wang, X.G. Li and Y.H. Chang
A 1794-bp cDNA fragment was amplified from mRNA isolated from pear (Pyrus pyrifolia NaKai. Cuiguan) leaves by using primers based on the sequences generated during the analysis of the pear transcriptome. The 597-amino acid sequence encoded by the cDNA was compared with the sequences in GenBank, and it was found to be similar to that of members of the sucr.. Read More»

Cloning and expression of the sucrose transporter gene PsSUT1 from tree peony leaf
Authors: Y.H. Li, T. Guo, Y. Cui , Y. Li and D. He
This study reports the cloning of a sucrose transporter gene, PsSUT1, from the leaf of tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa Lind. cv ‘Huhong’). Expression patterns were examined in different organs and at different developmental stages. The full-length cDNA of PsSUT1 consisted of a 2001-bp sequence containing a 1557-bp.. Read More»

Cloning and sequence analysis of sucrose phosphate synthase gene from varieties of Pennisetum species
Authors: H.C. Li, H.B. Lu, F.Y. Yang, S.J. Liu, C.J. Bai and Y.W. Zhang
Sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) is an enzyme used by higher plants for sucrose synthesis. In this study, three primer sets were designed on the basis of known SPS sequences from maize (GenBank: NM_001112224.1) and sugarcane (GenBank: JN584485.1), and five novel SPS genes were identified by RT-PCR from the genomes of Pennisetum spp (the hybrid P. american..
