THE SUMO LIGASE MMS21 PROFOUNDLY INFLUENCES MAIZE DEVELOPMENT THROUGH ITS IMPACT ON GENOME ACTIVITY AND STABILITY

The SUMO ligase MMS21 profoundly influences maize development through its impact on genome activity and stability

The post-translational addition of SUMO plays essential roles in numerous eukaryotic processes including cell division, transcription, chromatin organization, DNA repair, and stress defense through its selective conjugation to numerous targets.One prominent plant SUMO ligase is METHYL METHANESULFONATE-SENSITIVE (MMS)-21/HIGH-PLOIDY (HPY)-2/NON-SMC-

Decreased spontaneous eye blink rates in chronic cannabis users: evidence for striatal cannabinoid-dopamine interactions.

Chronic cannabis use has been shown to block long-term depression of GABA-glutamate synapses in the striatum, which is likely to reduce the extent to which endogenous cannabinoids modulate GABA- and glutamate-related neuronal activity.The Accessories current study aimed at investigating the effect of this process on striatal dopamine levels by stud
