Array MAPPIT: High-Throughput Interactome Analysis in Mammalian Cells (2009)

Lievens, Sam, Vanderroost, Nele, Van Der Heyden, José, Gesellchen, Viola, Vidal, Marc, Tavernier, Jan

Physical interactions between proteins play a key role in probably every cellular process. Efforts to chart the protein interaction networks are ongoing in a number of model organisms using a...

MAPPIT: a versatile tool to study cytokine receptor signalling (2008)

Lemmens, Irma, Lievens, Sam, Tavernier, Jan

MAPPIT (mammalian protein-protein interaction trap) is a cytokine receptor-based two-hybrid method that operates in intact mammalian cells. A bait is fused C-terminally to a STAT (signal transducer...

Nodule-enhanced protease inhibitor gene: emerging patterns of gene expression in nodule development on Sesbania rostrata (2004)

Lievens, Sam, Goormachtig, Sofie, Holsters, Marcelle

A novel marker for the early stages of nodulation of Sesbania rostrata was found to encode a putative member of the Kunitz family of protease inhibitors (SrPI1). Its expression was enhanced during...

A critical evaluation of differential display as a tool to identify genes involved in legume nodulation: looking back and looking forward (2001)

Lievens, Sam, Goormachtig, Sofie, Holsters, Marcelle

Screening for differentially expressed genes is a straightforward approach to study the molecular basis of a biological system. In the last 10 years, differential screening technology has evolved...

Srchi24, A Chitinase Homolog Lacking an Essential Glutamic Acid Residue for Hydrolytic Activity, Is Induced during Nodule Development on Sesbania rostrata1

Goormachtig, Sofie, Van De Velde, Willem, Lievens, Sam, Verplancke, Christa, Herman, Sylvia, De Keyser, Annick, ...

The interaction between the tropical legume Sesbania rostrata and the bacterium Azorhizobium caulinodans results in the formation of nodules on both stem and roots. Stem nodulation was used as a...

Gibberellins Are Involved in Nodulation of Sesbania rostrata1

Lievens, Sam, Goormachtig, Sofie, Den Herder, Jeroen, Capoen, Ward, Mathis, René, Hedden, Peter, ...

Upon submergence, Azorhizobium caulinodans infects the semiaquatic legume Sesbania rostrata via the intercellular crack entry process, resulting in lateral root-based nodules. A gene encoding a...

A Symbiotic Plant Peroxidase Involved in Bacterial Invasion of the Tropical Legume Sesbania rostrata1[C][W][OA]

Den Herder, Jeroen, Lievens, Sam, Rombauts, Stephane, Holsters, Marcelle, Goormachtig, Sofie

Aquatic nodulation on the tropical legume Sesbania rostrata occurs at lateral root bases via intercellular crack-entry invasion. A gene was identified (Srprx1) that is transiently up-regulated during...
