The PEBP genes FLOWERING LOCUS T and TERMINAL FLOWER 1 modulate seed dormancy and size.

The phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein (PEBP) family members FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) and TERMINAL FLOWER1 (TFL1) are major regulators of plant reproduction. In Arabidopsis, the FT/TFL1 balance defines the timing of floral transition and the determination of inflorescence meristem identity. However, emerging studies have elucidated a plethora of previously unknown functions for these genes in various physiological processes.

The influence of anesthetic drug strategy on the incidence of post-induction hypotension in elective, non-cardiac surgery - A prospective observational cohort study.

Study Objectives: To identify the influence of modifiable factors in anesthesia induction strategy on post-induction hypotension (PIH), specifically the type, dosage and speed of administration of induction agents. A secondary aim was to identify patient related non-modifiable factors associated with PIH.

Design: Single-center, prospective observational cohort study.

Uncoupling FRUITFULL's functions through modification of a protein motif identified by co-ortholog analysis.

Many plant transcription factors (TFs) are multifunctional and regulate growth and development in more than one tissue. These TFs can generally associate with different protein partners depending on the tissue type, thereby regulating tissue-specific target gene sets. However, how interaction specificity is ensured is still largely unclear.

Defining Postinduction Hemodynamic Instability With an Automated Classification Model.

Background: Postinduction hypotension (PIH) may be associated with increased morbidity and mortality. In earlier studies, the definition of PIH is solely based on different absolute or relative thresholds. However, the time-course (eg, how fast blood pressure drops during induction) is rarely incorporated, whereas it might represent the hemodynamic instability of a patient.

Evolutionary origin and functional investigation of the widely conserved plant PEBP gene STEPMOTHER OF FT AND TFL1 (SMFT).

Genes of the family PHOSPHATIDYLETHANOLAMINE-BINDING PROTEINS (PEBP) have been intensely studied in plants for their role in cell (re)programming and meristem differentiation. Recently, sporadic reports of the presence of a new type of PEBP in plants became available, highly similar to the YY-PEBPs of prokaryotes. A comprehensive investigation of their spread, origin, and function revealed conservation across the plant kingdom.
