Articles Developing a New Interdisciplinary Lab Course for Undergraduate (2008)

Joseph M. Jez, Daniel P. Schachtman, R. Howard Berg, Christopher G. Taylor, Sixue Chen

Studies of protein function increasingly use multifaceted approaches that span disciplines including recombinant DNA technology, cell biology, and analytical biochemistry. These studies rely on...

Comparative Investigations of the Glucosinolate-Myrosinase System in Arabidopsis Suspension Cells and Hypocotyls (2008)

Alvarez, Sophie, He, Yan, Chen, Sixue

Glucosinolates are secondary metabolites derived from amino acids. Upon hydrolysis by myrosinases, they produce a variety of biologically active compounds. In this study, the...

Additional freeze hardiness in wheat acquired by exposure to -3 {degrees}C is associated with extensive physiological, morphological, and molecular changes (2007)

Transcriptome analysis of root transporters reveals participation of multiple gene families in the response to cation stress (2003)

Maathuis, Frans J.M., Filatov, Victor, Herzyk, Pawel, Krijger, Gerard C., Axelsen, Kristian B., Chen, Sixue, ...

Plant nutrition critically depends on the activity of membrane transporters that translocate minerals from the soil into the plant and are responsible for their intra- and intercellular distribution....

A method for expression cloning of transporter genes by screening yeast for uptake of radiolabelled substrate (2000)

Wittstock, Ute, Chen, Sixue, Halkier, Barbara A.

A method has been developed for the cloning of plasma membrane transporters by screening yeast transformed with a cDNA library for the accumulation of radiolabelled substrate. The applicability of...

Long-Distance Phloem Transport of Glucosinolates in Arabidopsis1

Chen, Sixue, Petersen, Bent Larsen, Olsen, Carl Erik, Schulz, Alexander, Halkier, Barbara Ann

Glucosinolates are a large group of plant secondary metabolites found mainly in the order Capparales, which includes a large number of economically important Brassica crops and the model plant...

Cell Wall Proteome in the Maize Primary Root Elongation Zone. I. Extraction and Identification of Water-Soluble and Lightly Ionically Bound Proteins1

Zhu, Jinming, Chen, Sixue, Alvarez, Sophie, Asirvatham, Victor S., Schachtman, Daniel P., Wu, Yajun, ...

Cell wall proteins (CWPs) play important roles in various processes, including cell elongation. However, relatively little is known about the composition of CWPs in growing regions. We are using a...

Cell Wall Proteome in the Maize Primary Root Elongation Zone. II. Region-Specific Changes in Water Soluble and Lightly Ionically Bound Proteins under Water Deficit1[W][OA]

Zhu, Jinming, Alvarez, Sophie, Marsh, Ellen L., LeNoble, Mary E., Cho, In-Jeong, Sivaguru, Mayandi, ...

Previous work on the adaptation of maize (Zea mays) primary roots to water deficit showed that cell elongation is maintained preferentially toward the apex, and that this response involves...
