Resumen
El desarrollo del tallo de la planta implica nodos e internodos. Los genes específicos de homeobox tipo nodo 1 (KNOX1) regulan estas estructuras mediante el control de los genes YABBY, que definen los dominios del tallo en las plantas de semilla.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Biología del desarrollo vegetal
- Genética molecular
- Anatomía de las plantas
Sus antecedentes:
- Los tallos de las plantas están compuestos de nodos e internodos, cruciales para el transporte y el crecimiento.
- Los mecanismos genéticos precisos que definen los límites del nodo troncal y el nodo interno no se comprenden completamente.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Investigar las bases genéticas de la diferenciación de los nodos y los internodos en las plantas.
- Aclarar las funciones de los genes homeobox tipo nodo 1 (KNOX1) y YABBY en el desarrollo del tallo.
Principales métodos:
- Análisis de los patrones de expresión de los genes KNOX1 y YABBY en el arroz.
- Investigando las redes reguladoras de genes que controlan la morfología del tallo.
Principales resultados:
- Un subclado específico de genes KNOX1 de clase I restringe la formación de nodos y promueve el alargamiento de los nodos internos al reprimir los genes YABBY.
- Los genes YABBY y un subclado KNOX1 específico del nodo especifican el pulvino, mejorando la estructura nodal para el gravitropismo.
- La organización identificada del subclado KNOX1 es única para las plantas de semilla.
Conclusiones:
- Los nodos y los internodos son dominios de desarrollo distintos establecidos por la regulación cruzada YABBY-KNOX1.
- Este sistema regulador probablemente evolucionó en las primeras plantas de semilla para especificar la arquitectura del tallo.

01:06Multipotency and Niche of Bulge Stem Cell
3.6K
A hair follicle or HF is a small part of the skin that produces the hair shaft. Paul Gerson Unna was the first to observe a bulge in the human hair follicle's outer root sheath (ORS). The bulge is present between the sebaceous gland and the arrector pili muscle and is the niche for hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs). The bulge is also a niche for melanocyte stem cells, and their loss results in graying of hair. The HFSCs express Sox9 and Lhx2, which help them maintain stemness and prevent...

Vascular plants, which account for over 90% of the Earth’s vegetation, all undergo primary growth—which lengthens roots and shoots. Many land plants, notably woody plants, also undergo secondary growth—which thickens roots and shoots.

01:12Role Of Notch Signalling In Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal
2.1K
Notch signaling was first discovered in Drosophila melanogaster, where it is involved in cell lineage differentiation. Notch signaling regulates the maintenance and differentiation of intestinal stem cells or ISCs by controlling the expression of atonal homolog 1 or Atoh1. Atoh1 directs cells to differentiate into secretory cells.
Direct cell-to-cell contact is needed for the activation of Notch signaling. The signal is initiated when a notch ligand binds to a receptor on an adjacent cell, also...

01:33Pleiotropy
40.4K
Pleiotropy is the phenomenon in which a single gene impacts multiple, seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits. For example, defects in the SOX10 gene cause Waardenburg Syndrome Type 4, or WS4, which can cause defects in pigmentation, hearing impairments, and an absence of intestinal contractions necessary for elimination. This diversity of phenotypes results from the expression pattern of SOX10 in early embryonic and fetal development. SOX10 is found in neural crest cells that form melanocytes,...

01:22Role of Ephrin-Eph Signalling in Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal
2.2K
Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular carcinoma receptor (Eph) and its ligand, Eph receptor-interacting protein (Ephrin) were first discovered in the human carcinoma cell line, hence the name. Ephrin-Eph interaction guides cells to reach their appropriate location in adult tissues. They also play an essential role in the immune system by helping in immune cell migration, adhesion, and activation. Based on their structure and function, Eph is divided into two classes — EphA and EphB.

03:14Notch Signaling Pathway
4.2K
The Notch signaling pathway is a major intracellular signaling pathway that is highly conserved over a broad spectrum of metazoan species. It stands unique from other intracellular signaling mechanisms in animals because notch protein itself acts as the receptor as well as the primary signaling molecule.
The Notch gene came into the limelight in 1914 after the discovery that its mutation in Drosophila melanogaster leads to a serrated (or "notched") wing margin phenotype. It was not...
