This book is a must-read for scholars and academics starting research on plant receptor kinases. The first chapter details the mechanistic of plant receptor kinase structure and activation and details the roles of each domain and their properties and compares it with what is known of receptor animal kinase activation. The following chapters present an extensive review of small putative signaling peptides that could potentially bind receptor kinase and a subtraction method for EST sequencing to enrich in weakly expressed mRNAs.

Produktbeschreibung
This book is a must-read for scholars and academics
starting research on plant receptor kinases. The
first chapter details the mechanistic of plant
receptor kinase structure and activation and details
the roles of each domain and their properties and
compares it with what is known of receptor animal
kinase activation. The following chapters present an
extensive review of small putative signaling peptides
that could potentially bind receptor kinase and a
subtraction method for EST sequencing to enrich in
weakly expressed mRNAs. The last two chapters present
a case study of two novels plant receptor kinases
discovered using the subtraction method followed by a
thorough functional analysis using biochemical,
histochemical and transgenic approaches in the
context of ovules and fruit development in plants.
Autorenporträt
Hugo Germain did his Ph.D. at the University of Montreal where he
focused on plant receptor kinases for 6 years. He then moved to
the University of British Columbia as a post-doctoral fellow to
carry research on plant innate immunity in A. thaliana. This book
will serve as a reference for scholars starting research on plant
receptor kinases.
