Transcription factors regulate stress resistance in jute
Dark jute is an increasingly valued bast fibre-yielding plant with a diversity of uses. However, there is a need for varieties that can tolerate challenging environmental conditions. Scientists of Basic and Applied Research on Jute Project at the Bangladesh Jute Research Institute used molecular genetics methods to study the role of the transcription factor superfamily AP2/ERF in the adaptation of […]

Raising antibodies against protein complexes
Dr John LaCava of The Rockefeller University has identified a gap in the current availability of target-specific antibodies for the analysis of intracellular protein-protein interactions. Using the latest antibody production techniques, alongside immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry, he aims to identify important interactions between transcription factors and other macromolecules which are implicated in disease. Proteins are vital for the inner workings […]
