Both ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and its regulatory protein, antizyme inhibitor (AZI), can bind with antizyme (AZ), but the latter has a higher AZ-binding affinity. The results of this study clearly identify the critical amino acid residues governing the difference in AZ-binding affinities between human ODC and AZI. Inhibition experiments using a series of ODC mutants suggested that residues ...

Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) is the most notable example of a protein degraded by the 26 S proteasome without ubiquitination. Instead, ODC is targeted to degradation by direct binding to a polyamine-induced protein termed antizyme (Az). Antizyme inhibitor (AzI) is an ODC-related protein that does not retain enzymatic activity yet binds Az with higher affinity than ODC. We show here that like O...

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) plant resists water-deficit stress by shedding leaves leading to adaptive water-deficit condition. Transcriptomic, physiological, cellular, molecular, metabolic, and transgenic methods were used to study the mechanism of cassava abscission zone (AZ) cell separation under water-deficit stress. Microscopic observation indicated that AZ cell separation initiated ...
