The protein-interacting ability of estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta) and estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) was studied using the yeast two-hybrid system. The salmon ERbeta shared features with other nuclear receptors regarding dimerization, forming a homodimer and heterodimer with ERalpha. The activation of salmon ERs by estradiol-17beta was shown to be necessary for dimerization. Furthermore, the xenoestrogens, 4-nonylphenol and bisphenol A, were shown to promote ER dimerization in the yeast two-hybrid system.

SH2B1β is a multifunctional scaffold protein that modulates cytoskeletal processes such as cellular motility and neurite outgrowth. To identify novel SH2B1β-interacting proteins involved in these processes, a yeast two-hybrid assay was performed. The C-terminal 159 residues of the cytoskeleton structural protein, βIIΣ1-spectrin, interacted with the N-terminal 260 residues of SH2B1β, a region implicated in SH2B1β enhancement of cell motility and localization at the plasma membrane.

An endoplasmic reticulum-localized Cu transporter, PhHMA5II1, interacts with copper chaperones and plays an important role in Cu detoxification in petunia. Copper (Cu) is an essential element for plant growth but toxic when present in excess. In this study we present the functional characterization of a petunia (Petunia hybrida) P-type heavy-metal ATPases (HMAs), PhHMA5II1.

SKP1 constitutes the Skp1-Cullin-F-box ubiquitin E3 ligase (SCF), which plays a role in plant growth and development and biotic and abiotic stress in ubiquitination. However, the response of the gene family to abiotic and biotic stresses in cotton has not been well characterized. In this study, a total of 72 genes with the conserved domain of SKP1 were identified in four Gossypium species.

Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most dangerous environmental pollutants and is easily absorbed by food crops. Quinoa is a kind of coarse grain crop with rich nutrition and strong stress resistance, which is easy to accumulate Cd. The increasingly serious soil Cd pollution poses a serious threat to the food safety of quinoa.
