High impact information on cob

  • Quantitative polarized-light and field-emission scanning electron microscopy reveal that loss of anisotropic expansion in cob mutants is accompanied by disorganization of the orientation of cellulose microfibrils and subsequent reduction of crystalline cellulose [1].
  • Novel RNA editing sites were identified in grapevine cob, which have not been previously reported for other plants [2].
  • This report presents the sequences of the grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) mitochondrial gene for apocytochrome b (cob), the edited mRNA and the deduced protein [2].
  • The rpl5 gene, the rps14 pseudogene, and the cob gene are separated by one nucleotide and a 1604-nucleotide-long spacer respectively [3].
  • The entire region is transcribed into a 5-kb transcript, containing the rps14 pseudogene and the cob gene [3].
