Disease relevance of Catharanthus

 

High impact information on Catharanthus

  • Here we report that auxin can generate transient changes in inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) and inositol bisphosphate (InsP2) within minutes in Catharanthus roseus cells arrested in G1 [2].
  • The gene for ORCA3, a jasmonate-responsive APETALA2 (AP2)-domain transcription factor from Catharanthus roseus, was isolated by transferred DNA activation tagging [3].
  • These octadecanoid-derivative responsive Catharanthus AP2-domain (ORCA) proteins bind in a sequence-specific manner the JA- and elicitor-responsive element [4].
  • The intracellular location of a cytochrome P-450-dependent monoterpene hydroxylase from the higher plant, Catharanthus roseus, has been investigated [5].
  • Although genetic approaches are difficult for most plant species, promoter studies of single-pathway genes and T-DNA activation tagging are feasible alternative approaches for isolating transcription factors, as illustrated for terpenoid indole alkaloid biosynthesis in Catharanthus roseus [6].
