Description

Plant Receptor-like Kinase Studies

While not directly characterizing antibodies, multiple studies used genetic tools to investigate BAM1's role in:

  • Viral movement: BAM1 interacts with Tobacco mosaic virus movement protein (MP) at plasmodesmata, facilitating early infection spread (21-fold higher TMV RNA in BAM1-overexpressing plants vs wild type) .

  • RNA interference: BAM1 promotes cell-to-cell spread of silencing signals, inhibited by Tomato yellow leaf curl virus C4 protein .

Key experimental findings:

  • BAM1's kinase domain is dispensable for viral MP interaction

  • BAM1 silencing reduces TMV MP movement efficiency by 35% (P < 0.01)

Arabidopsis Beta Amylase 1 Antibody

  • Reconstitution: 50 µl sterile water per vial

  • Storage: -20°C in aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw degradation

  • Epitope: Mature protein excluding chloroplast transit peptide

Drosophila Bam Antibody

  • Recommended concentration: 2-5 µg/ml for immunofluorescence

  • Validation: Weak western blot signal necessitates confirmation via alternative methods

Emerging Research Directions

Recent studies identified novel BAM1 interactions:

  • CLE peptide sensing: BAM1/BAM2 receptors regulate epidermal cell division via CLE9 ligand recognition (MD simulations show Phe269 as critical binding residue)

  • Viral pathogenesis: BAM1’s transmembrane domain mediates TMV MP docking (BiFC confirmation at plasmodesmata)

Target Background

Function
This antibody targets beta-amylase, specifically exhibiting activity on p-nitrophenyl maltopentaoside (PNPG5) substrate in its reduced form. It plays a secondary role in starch degradation and maltose metabolism within chloroplasts during nocturnal periods, demonstrating enhanced activity on phosphorylated glucans and direct interaction with starch and other alpha-1,4-glucans.
Gene References Into Functions
  • The diurnal degradation of transitory starch by BAM1 provides carbon skeletons for proline biosynthesis, crucial for osmotic stress tolerance. PMID: 26792489
  • bam1 mutant plants exhibit improved drought tolerance compared to wild-type controls, characterized by significant downregulation of genes encoding aquaporins, auxin- and ethylene-responsive factors, and cell-wall modifying enzymes. PMID: 26139825
  • Consistent with thioredoxin regulation, total beta-amylase activity in Arabidopsis chloroplasts is partially redox-regulated and requires reducing conditions for optimal activation. PMID: 16698902
