Transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in plants
Publisher DOI
Abstract
In the past few years virtually every aspect of plant gene expression has been covered by thoughtful, in-depth reviews. In this article, it is not my goal to repeat, combine or update those reviews. Rather, I will attempt to give as general as possible an overview of plant gene expression. In order to reach this goal I have selected a small number of examples to illustrate what, in my opinion, are important concepts in plant gene expression.
Many concepts in plant gene expression derive from animal, yeast and bacterial systems. This interaction between plant and non-plant research has been and continues to be extremely rewarding. I will emphasize these general concepts, but at the same time highlight where plant gene expression is different or our understanding more advanced.
