A biological unit consisting of a nucleus and the body of cytoplasm with which it interacts.
1
Unexpectedly, developmental mutants were obtained only when the protoplast fusion approach was used.
2
The protoplast is uninucleate and vacuolate, and contains chromatophores of a brownish colour.
3
The differentiation into nucleus and cytoplasm represents a division of labour in the protoplast.
4
We have established an Arabidopsis protoplast model system to study plant cell death signaling.
5
An Arabidopsis protoplast system was developed for dissecting plant cell death in individual cells.
6
It is possible that the protoplast has some capacity to float freely within the periplasm.
7
Each component was optimised to achieve maximal reporter gene expression in transient protoplast transformation assays.
8
He furrowed his protoplast brow that looked as youthful as it had a century ago.
9
Both the DNA conformation and pre-culture of plants used for protoplast isolation significantly affected transformation efficiencies.
10
One plasmid can correctly edit the target region using a single protoplast cell as template DNA.
11
Transient expression of OsC2DP in rice protoplast cells showed that it was localized in the cytosol.
12
They have other functional roles in shellfish waste management, fungal protoplast generation, and Single-Cell Protein production.
13
Thus, a system was established to visualize early events in P. patens protoplast polarization at the subcellular level.
14
Fortunately the time was already past when protoplast patients were looked upon as something mildly freakish and to be pitied.
15
The transformation methods currently available for this species for gene discovery and functional analysis involve protoplast transformation and are laborious and inefficient.
16
We used a protoplast transient expression system to assess 42 of the predicted effector proteins for the ability to induce plant cell death.
