Agrobacterium tumefaciens is widely used as a versatile tool for development of stably
transformed model plants and crops. However, the development of Agrobacterium based …

Cellular DNA is continuously engaged in a molecular dance with many accessory proteins.
These proteins are responsible for orchestrating the storage, maintenance, and transfer of …

Tip-enhanced Raman scattering (TERS) is a promising optical and analytical technique for
chemical imaging and sensing at single molecule resolution. In particular, TERS signals …

Agrobacterium tumefaciens causes tumour formation in plants. Plant signals induce in the
bacteria the expression of a range of virulence (Vir) proteins and the formation of a type IV …

Type IV secretion systems (T4SSs) are multisubunit cell‐envelope‐spanning structures,
ancestrally related to bacterial conjugation machines, which transfer proteins and …

The genus Agrobacterium is unique in its ability to conduct interkingdom genetic exchange.
Virulent Agrobacterium strains transfer single-strand forms of T-DNA (T-strands) and several …

Under the vast umbrella of Plant Sciences resides a plethora of highly specialized fields.
Botanists, agronomists, horticulturists, geneticists, and physiologists each employ a different …

The genetic transformation of plants mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens represents an
essential tool for both fundamental and applied research in plant biology. For a successful …

Protein biosynthesis is inherently coupled to cotranslational protein folding. Folding of the
nascent chain already occurs during synthesis and is mediated by spatial constraints …

The advent of new technologies allowing the study of single biological molecules continues
to have a major impact on studies of interacting systems as well as enzyme reactions. These …
