Transgenic Arabidopsis

CC-type glutaredoxins (GRXs) are plant-specific glutaredoxin, play regulatory roles in response of biotic and abiotic stress. However, it is not clear whether the CC-type GRXs are involve in drought response in cassava (Manihot esculenta), an important tropical tuber root crop.

Na+ extrusion from cells is important for plant growth in high saline environments. SOS1 (salt overly sensitive 1), an Na+ /H+ antiporter located in the plasma membrane (PM), functions in toxic Na+ extrusion from cells using energy from an electrochemical proton gradient produced by a PM-localized H+ -ATPase (AHA).

Coffee plant is one of the most important industrial crops, and the two popular cultivars, Coffea arabica and Coffea canephora, contribute to the production of almost all coffee beans around the world. Traditional breeding could be used to develop new coffee cultivars with a higher productivity under these harsh conditions, and a biotechnological approach can also be used to improve coffee plants in a relatively short period of time.

Employing transgenic plants as alternative systems to the conventional Escherichia coli, Pichia pastorisor baculovirus hosts to produce recombin-ant allergens may offer the possibility of having available edible vaccines in the near future. In this study, two EF-hand-type Ca 2+ -binding allergens from olive pollen, Ole e 3 and Ole e 8, were produced in transgenic Arabid-opsis thaliana plants.

DNA topoisomerase 6 (TOP6) belongs to a novel family of type II DNA topoisomerases present, other than in archaebacteria, only in plants. Here we report the isolation of full-length cDNAs encoding putative TOP6 sub-units A and B from rice (Oryza sativassp.indica), preserving all the struc-tural domains conserved among archaebacterial TOP6 homologs and eukaryotic meiotic recombination factor SPO11.

TheArabidopsis acd11mutant exhibits runaway, programmed cell death due to the loss of a putative sphingosine transfer protein (ACD11) with homology to mammalian GLTP. We demonstrate that transgenic expres-sion in Arabidopsis thalianaof human GLTP partially suppressed the phenotype of theacd11null mutant, resulting in delayed programmed cell death development and plant survival.
