Effects of DNA mismatch repair inhibition in Arabidopsis thaliana

Creator:

Wilcox, Buck W. L.

Abstract:

Genomic instability underlies diseases of unregulated cell growth that result in cancers and developmental abnormalities in humans. Similar genome destabilizing mechanisms are used to create genetic variety in crops for use in breeding and trait development. Errors that occur during DNA replication may cause mutations if they are not corrected...

Genome-enabled discovery and characterization of type III effector-encoding genes of plant symbiotic bacteria

Creator:

Kimbrel, Jeffrey A.

Abstract:

Symbiosis is the close and protracted interaction between organisms. The molecular interactions that occur during symbiosis are complex with multiple barriers that must be overcome. Many Gram-negative, host-associated bacteria use a type III secretion system to mediate associations with their eukaryotic hosts. This secretion system is a specialized apparatus for...
