Rapid Identification of Protein‐Protein Interactions in Plants

Identification of Medicinal Plants in Arshadchamani Rangelands of East Azarbaijan

Arshadchamani rangelands are placed in the north foothill of SahandMountain and near Kandovan Village. Therefore, it has plant diversity andeconomical values. In this region, medicinal plants are cut and sold by the storeswith non-standard packaging without scientific name. Regarding the economicalvalue of medicinal plants and thereby the investment necessity on these valuableresources for usin...

Rapid identification of chemical genetic interactions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Determining the mode of action of bioactive chemicals is of interest to a broad range of academic, pharmaceutical, and industrial scientists. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, or budding yeast, is a model eukaryote for which a complete collection of ~6,000 gene deletion mutants and hypomorphic essential gene mutants are commercially available. These collections of mutants can be used to systematically ...

Rapid Identification and Verification of Indirubin-Containing Medicinal Plants

Indirubin, one of the key components of medicinal plants including Isatis tinctoria, Polygonum tinctorium, and Strobilanthes cusia, possesses great medicinal efficacy in the treatment of chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML). Due to misidentification and similar name, materials containing indirubin and their close relatives frequently fall prey to adulteration. In this study, we selected an interna...

Rapid response of rice plants to arsenite toxicity

Absorption of arsenic (As) by plant root is an essential activity that bridges the soil As concentration and physiological responses which can be monitored soon after exposure to As. In the present study, physiological responses to short exposure to arsenite (AsIII) was compared in two indigenous rice cultivars one adapted to temperate and humid (TH) and the second one to warm and humid (WH) cl...
