Isolation and sequence determination of the plant homologue of the eukaryotic initiation factor 4D cDNA from alfalfa, Medicago sativa

Here, we report on the isolation of the first eIF4D cDNA clone from the plant kingdom. The eIF4D-Ms cDNA clone was fortuitously isolated from an alfalfa cDNA library prepared from suspension culture cells that had been challenged for 48 h with 100 mu M 2,4-dichlorophenoxy-acetic acid to induce somat...

Description
Summary:Here, we report on the isolation of the first eIF4D cDNA clone from the plant kingdom. The eIF4D-Ms cDNA clone was fortuitously isolated from an alfalfa cDNA library prepared from suspension culture cells that had been challenged for 48 h with 100 mu M 2,4-dichlorophenoxy-acetic acid to induce somatic embryogenesis. The probe used for screening was a PCR fragment with homology to phosphoprotein phosphatases.
