RUI: Investigations of the Nuclear Envelope in Higher Plants

该项目涉及对核电站核包膜的两个组成部分的调查。一种是含有糖的岩藻糖，另一种是核膜下面的纤维层。这些成分将使用超微结构和生化技术进行表征。该项目应该在植物细胞生物学方面产生重要的基本信息，并被证明在设计更有效的植物属转化方法方面是有用的。

The project involves investigations of two components of the plant nuclear envelope. One is the fucose containing glycoconjugates and the other is the fibrous lamina underlying the nuclear membrane. These components will be characterized using ultrastructural and biochemical techniques. The project should yield important basic information in plant cell biology and prove useful in designing more effective methods for plant generic transformation.
