An Expression and Bioinformatics Analysis of the Arabidopsis
... suggest that this SCPL gene lacks a promoter (Lehfeldt et al., 2000). The predicted translation products of another two (At3g56540 and At5g22960) terminate shortly after the putative catalytic Ser, and thus lack the active site Asp and His residues. A search of the downstream regions of these genes ...

In contrast, a slower (6-h) response appears to be mediated via the hypothalamus and stimulation of α-adrenergic receptors. The precise molecular mechanism(s) by which leptin activates AMPK are not fully underst ...

Point mutation
A point mutation, or single base modification, is a type of mutation that causes a single nucleotide base change, insertion, or deletion of the genetic material, DNA or RNA. The term frameshift mutation indicates the addition or deletion of a base pair. A point mutant is an individual that is affected by a point mutation.Repeat induced point mutations are recurring point mutations, discussed below.
