Li R, Rashotte A, Singh N, Lawrence K, Weaver D, Locy R
PLoS One . 2015 Nov; 10(11):e0143261. PMID: 26571375
Reniform nematode is a semi-endoparasitic nematode species causing significant yield loss in numerous crops, including cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). An RNA-sequencing analysis was conducted to measure transcript abundance in reniform...

Hu H, Rashotte A, Singh N, Weaver D, Goertzen L, Singh S, et al.
PLoS One . 2015 Jun; 10(6):e0127468. PMID: 26070200
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and secondary small interfering RNAs (principally phased siRNAs or trans-acting siRNAs) are two distinct subfamilies of small RNAs (sRNAs) that are emerging as key regulators of posttranscriptional gene...

Li R, Rashotte A, Singh N, Weaver D, Lawrence K, Locy R
Plant Cell Rep . 2014 Sep; 34(1):5-22. PMID: 25208657
Sedentary plant endoparasitic nematodes can cause detrimental yield losses in crop plants making the study of detailed cellular, molecular, and whole plant responses to them a subject of importance. In...

Cao J, Singh N, Locy R
Yeast . 2014 Aug; 31(10):411-20. PMID: 25092794
The yeast succinic semi-aldehyde dehydrogenase gene (SSADH; EC 1.2.1.16) was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. Based on SDS-PAGE, the molecular mass of the subunit was around 54 kDa, and...

Cao J, Barbosa J, Singh N, Locy R
Yeast . 2013 Jun; 30(7):279-89. PMID: 23740823
GABA transaminase (GABA-T) catalyses the conversion of GABA to succinate semialdehyde (SSA) in the GABA shunt pathway. The GABA-T from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ScGABA-TKG) is an α-ketoglutarate-dependent enzyme encoded by the...

Cao J, Barbosa J, Singh N, Locy R
Yeast . 2013 Mar; 30(4):129-44. PMID: 23447388
The GABA shunt pathway involves three enzymes, glutamate decarboxylase (GAD), GABA aminotransferase (GAT) and succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH). These enzymes act in concert to convert glutamate (α-ketoglutarate) to succinate. Deletion...

Sang Y, Locy R, Goertzen L, Rashotte A, Si Y, Kang K, et al.
Plant Physiol Biochem . 2010 Nov; 49(1):88-95. PMID: 21051239
Pyridoxal phosphate (PLP), a vitamin B(6) vitamer, is an essential cofactor for numerous enzymes. Pyridoxine/pyridoxamine phosphate oxidase (PPOX) catalyzes the synthesis of pyridoxal phosphate from pyridoxine phosphate (PNP) and/or pyridoxamine...

Al-Quraan N, Locy R, Singh N
Plant Physiol Biochem . 2010 Jun; 48(8):697-702. PMID: 20554213
Calmodulin (CaM), a calcium-regulated protein, regulates the activity of a number of key enzymes and plays important roles in cellular responses to environmental changes. The Arabidopsis thaliana genome contains nine...

Barbosa J, Singh N, Cherry J, Locy R
Plant Physiol Biochem . 2010 Mar; 48(6):443-50. PMID: 20303774
Exogenously applied GABA modulates root growth by inhibition of root elongation when seedlings were grown in vitro on full-strength Murashige and Skoog (MS) salts, but root elongation was stimulated when...

Sang Y, Barbosa J, Wu H, Locy R, Singh N
FEBS Lett . 2007 Jan; 581(3):344-8. PMID: 17224143
Pyridoxine (pyridoxamine) 5'-phosphate oxidase (PPOX) catalyzes the oxidative conversion of pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate (PMP) or pyridoxine 5'-phosphate (PNP) to pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP). The At5g49970 gene of Arabidopsis thaliana shows homology to...
