Yoon J, Han Y, Ahn Y, Hong M, Sung S
Plant Mol Biol . 2019 Oct; 101(6):561-574. PMID: 31621006
We investigated the functions of two cyanobacterial HemY protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase (PPO) genes with in vitro and in vivo assays and evaluated their applicability as resistance traits to PPO-inhibiting herbicides....

Park J, Ahn Y, Nam J, Hong M, Song N, Kim T, et al.
Pestic Biochem Physiol . 2018 Dec; 152:38-44. PMID: 30497709
We conducted biochemical and physiological experiments to investigate the mode of action of tiafenacil (Terrad'or™), a new protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase (PPO)-inhibiting pyrimidinedione herbicide. Analysis of the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC)...

Kim S, Jeong J, Ahn Y, Lee H, Kwak S
Mol Biol Rep . 2014 Jul; 41(10):6957-66. PMID: 25030835
Metallothioneins (MTs) are cysteine-rich, low molecular weight, metal-binding proteins that are widely distributed in living organisms. Plants produce metal-chelating proteins such as MTs to overcome the toxic effects of heavy...

Kim S, Ahn Y, Ahn M, Jeong J, Lee H, Kwak S
Plant Physiol Biochem . 2013 Jul; 70:445-54. PMID: 23835362
The Orange (Or) gene is responsible for the accumulation of carotenoids in plants. We isolated the Or gene (IbOr) from storage roots of orange-fleshed sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas L. Lam. cv....

Chu H, Jeong J, Kim W, Chung D, Jeon H, Ahn Y, et al.
Physiol Plant . 2012 Oct; 148(2):189-99. PMID: 23039825
R2R3-type MYB transcription factors (TFs) play important roles in transcriptional regulation of anthocyanins. The R2R3-type IbMYB1 is known to be a key regulator of anthocyanin biosynthesis in the storage roots...

Kim S, Kim Y, Ahn Y, Ahn M, Jeong J, Lee H, et al.
Physiol Plant . 2012 Sep; 147(4):432-42. PMID: 22938023
Lycopene ε-cyclase (LCY-ε) is involved in the first step of the α-branch synthesis pathway of carotenoids from lycopene in plants. In this study, to enhance carotenoid synthesis via the β-branch-specific...

Kim S, Ahn Y, Ahn M, Lee H, Kwak S
Phytochemistry . 2011 Dec; 74:69-78. PMID: 22154923
Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas Lam.) is an important industrial crop and source of food that contains useful components, including antioxidants such as carotenoids. β-Carotene hydroxylase (CHY-β) is a key regulatory enzyme...

Ahn Y, Kim S, Lee J, Kim H, Lee H, Kwak S
Mol Biol Rep . 2011 Jun; 39(3):2059-67. PMID: 21643753
The expression profiles of three Brassica rapa metallothionein genes (BrMT 1-3) were determined in 7-day-old seedlings exposed to various exogenous factors including plant hormones, heavy metals and abiotic stresses. BrMT1,...

Kim C, Ahn Y, Kim S, Kim Y, Lee H, Catanach A, et al.
Physiol Plant . 2010 Feb; 139(3):229-40. PMID: 20163556
MYB transcription factors play important roles in transcriptional regulation of many secondary metabolites including anthocyanins. We cloned the R2R3-MYB type IbMYB1 complementary DNAs from the purple-fleshed sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas...

Ahn Y, Shimizu B, Sakata K, Gantulga D, Zhou C, Zhou Z, et al.
Plant Cell Physiol . 2009 Dec; 51(1):132-43. PMID: 19965874
Three beta-glucosidases (At1g66270-BGLU21, At1g66280-BGLU22, and At3g09260-BGLU23) were purified from the roots of Arabidopsis and their cDNAs were expressed in insect cells. In addition, two beta-glucosidase binding protein cDNAs (At3g16420; PBPI...
