Abstract:
The production of chemical energy from light energy is arguably the most important reaction known, which makes photosynthesis one of the most important processes on Earth. Nearly all life depends on the energy derived from light, and it is this process that supports Earths oxygenated atmosphere. Photosynthesis is initiated by the absorption of light, which is performed by specialised pigment molecules known as the chlorophylls. These are highly specialised pigment molecules that belong to the tetrapyrrole family, which also includes vitamin B12, sirohaem and haem. Chlorophyll is synthesised vi

Non-coding RNAs, functional RNA molecules that are not translated into proteins, are potential regulatory agents in bacteria. Ribosomal autogenous regulatory elements are short transcribed sequences between the promoter and a protein coding region that regulate expression of their associated gene(s), though they are not themselves translated. These sequences form RNA secondary structures that can regulate at either the transcriptional or translational le

Abstract:
The biosynthesis of integral membrane proteins (IMPs) is an essential cellular process. IMPs comprise roughly 20-30% of the protein coding genes of all organisms, nearly all of which are inserted and assembled at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The defining structural feature of IMPs is one or more transmembrane domains (TMDs). TMDs are typically stretches of predominately hydrophobic amino acids that span the lipid bilayer of biological membranes as an alpha helix. TMDs are remarkably diverse in terms of their topological and biophysical properties. In order to accommodate this diversity, the

The aim of this study was to characterize the early viral gene products that are produced in permissive and nonpermissive cells.

Plants synthesize and store oil, mostly triacylglycerol (TAG), in various storage tissues that serves as a source of carbon and energy. The process is transcriptionally controlled by WRINKLED1 (WRI1), a member of the APETALA2 (AP2) class of transcription factors, that regulates most of the fatty acid biosynthesis genes. Among the four Arabidopsis WRI1 paralogs, only WRI2 is nonfunctional and failed to complement wri1-1 mutant seeds. The oleaginous Avocado (Persea americana) fruit mesocarp (60-70% DW oil) showed high expression levels for orthologs of WRI2, along with WRI1 and WRI3. While the r

Cotranslational translocation is initiated by targeting of a ribosome-bound nascent polypeptide chain (RNC) to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane.

A vacant translocon is a prerequisite for the subsequent nascent chain release from SRP-SR-RNC complex.

This structure is proposed to enhance the base pairing between U36 of tRNA and A1 of the codon which aids in translational frame maintenance.
