Roles for mannitol and mannitol dehydrogenase in active oxygen-mediated plant defense
Jennings, Dianne B., Ehrenshaft, Marilyn, Pharr, D. Mason, Williamson, John D.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are both signal molecules and direct participants in plant defense against pathogens. Many fungi synthesize mannitol, a potent quencher of ROS, and there is growing...
ABA-Regulation of Two Classes of Embryo-Specific Sequences in Mature Wheat Embryos 1
Williamson, John D., Quatrano, Ralph S.
We have previously described the isolation and characterization of ABA-enhanced sequences from developing wheat embryos. Here we use in vivo RNA labeling and the inhibitors α-amanitin and...
The Synthesis of a 19 Kilodalton Zein Protein in Transgenic Petunia Plants 1
Williamson, John D., Galili, Gad, Larkins, Brian A., Gelvin, Stanton B.
Transcriptional fusions composed of a 19 kilodalton zein cDNA, the 5′ flanking region from a β-phaseolin gene, and 3′ flanking regions from either the phaseolin or a 15-kilodalton zein gene were...
Differential Accumulation of a Transcript Driven by the CaMV 35S Promoter in Transgenic Tobacco 1
Williamson, John D., Hirsch-Wyncott, Marlaya E., Larkins, Brian A., Gelvin, Stanton B.
A transcriptional fusion composed of the CaMV 35S promoter, a 19 kD zein cDNA, and the 3′ flanking regions from the 0′ to 1′ TR T-DNA genes was introduced into tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) by...

Atypical squamous cells as a diagnostic pitfall in pulmonary wegener's granulomatosis: A case report
BACKGROUND: Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) is characterized by systemic, necrotizing, granulomatous inflammation accompanied by vasculitis. It classically involves the triad of the upper respiratory...
