Tom22', an 8 kDa trans-Site Receptor in Plants and Protozoans, Is a Conserved Feature of the TOM Complex that Appeared Early in the Evolution of Eukaryotes (2004)

Maaev, Diana, Whelan, James, Newbigin, Ed, Silva-Filho, Marcio C., Mulhern, Terrence D., Lithgow, Trevor

One of the earliest events in the evolution of mitochondria was to devise a means to translocate proteins made in the cytosol into the "proto-mitochondrion". How this was achieved remains uncertain...

Characterization of Rny1, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae member of the T2 RNase family of RNases: Unexpected functions for ancient enzymes?

MacIntosh, Gustavo C., Bariola, Pauline A., Newbigin, Ed, Green, Pamela J.

The T2 family of nonspecific endoribonucleases (EC 3.1.27.1) is a widespread family of RNases found in every organism examined thus far. Most T2 enzymes are secretory RNases and therefore are found...

Structural Analysis and Molecular Model of a Self-Incompatibility RNase from Wild Tomato1

Parry, Simon, Newbigin, Ed, Craik, David, Nakamura, Kazuo T., Bacic, Antony, Oxley, David

Self-incompatibility RNases (S-RNases) are an allelic series of style glycoproteins associated with rejection of self-pollen in solanaceous plants. The nucleotide sequences of S-RNase alleles from...

Genetic analysis of Nicotiana pollen-part mutants is consistent with the presence of an S-ribonuclease inhibitor at the S locus

Golz, John F., Oh, Hae-Young, Su, Vanessa, Kusaba, Makoto, Newbigin, Ed

Self-incompatibility (SI) is a genetic mechanism that restricts inbreeding in flowering plants. In the nightshade family (Solanaceae) SI is controlled by a single multiallelic S locus. Pollen...

Pollen Tubes of Nicotiana alata Express Two Genes from Different β-Glucan Synthase Families1

Doblin, Monika S., De Melis, Linda, Newbigin, Ed, Bacic, Antony, Read, Steve M.

The walls deposited by growing pollen tubes contain two types of β-glucan, the (1,3)-β-glucan callose and the (1,4)-β-glucan cellulose, as well as various α-linked pectic polysaccharides. Pollen...

Maximum-likelihood estimation of rates of recombination within mating-type regions.

Takebayashi, Naoki, Newbigin, Ed, Uyenoyama, Marcy K

Features common to many mating-type regions include recombination suppression over large genomic tracts and cosegregation of genes of various functions, not necessarily related to reproduction. Model...

Expression of 10 S-Class SLF-like Genes in Nicotiana alata Pollen and Its Implications for Understanding the Pollen Factor of the S Locus

Wheeler, David, Newbigin, Ed

The S locus of Nicotiana alata encodes a polymorphic series of ribonucleases (S-RNases) that determine the self-incompatibility (SI) phenotype of the style. The pollen product of the S locus (pollen...

RNase-Based Self-Incompatibility: Puzzled by Pollen S[W]

Newbigin, Ed, Paape, Timothy, Kohn, Joshua R.

Many plants have a genetically determined self-incompatibility system in which the rejection of self pollen grains is controlled by alleles of an S locus. A common feature of these S loci is that...
