Cellulose biosynthesis inhibitors modulate defense transcripts and regulate genes that are implicated in cell wall re-structuring in arabidopsis
… pathway using Cellulose Biosynthesis Inhibitors (CBIs). In this case, chemical screen for swollen organ phenotype has proved to be an important technique to identify the genes that are directly or indirectly involved in cellulose biosynthesis. In the present research, a number of synthetic CBIs …

Design and Synthesis of Estrogen Receptor Coactivator Binding Inhibitors
… be utilized as coactivator binding inhibitors (CBIs). A fluorescence-based assay was used to evaluate the ability of the CBIs to effectively block the ER-coactivator interaction. The most effective compounds synthesized were amphipathic benzene derivatives with Ki's of 7 and 4 muM, which are the …

Conceptualizing the consumer-brand relationship as a truly dyadic process
… CBR? (2) What are consumer-brand interactions (CBIs)? And (3) How can we measure CBIs? The objective in Essay 1 is to develop a better understanding of the conceptual foundation of the CBR. This was accomplished through extensive review of relevant literature, which highlighted the need to …

Characterization and transcriptomic profiling of Arabidopsis thaliana under cellulose biosynthesis inhibitor treatment
… known as cellulose biosynthesis inhibitors (CBIs), allows us to dissect the cellulose biosynthetic process. Using flupoxam resistant (fxr) and isoxaben resistant (ixr) mutants, we characterized their response to our novel CBIs. Root length clustering showed similar responses and …

Factors Influencing the Face Validity of Effort Tests: Timing of Warning and Feedback
… from Experiment 1 reveal that Early Warning CBIS endorsed lower face validity for effort measures than the other three groups. Performance on the effort measures was not significantly different across groups. Experiment 2 examined the role of visual feedback on individuals’ performance on …

Forward screening for herbicide resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana and the monocot species Triticum aestivum
… with cellulose biosynthesis inhibitors (CBIs). CBI resistant Arabidopsis thaliana mutants were identified from previous forward genetic screens. Some identified CBI resistant mutants demonstrated altered cellulose crystallinity, and cell wall saccharification. In a larger crop species, …

Forward and reverse genetic approaches to investigate cellulose biosynthesis in Physcomitrium patens
… Therefore, cellulose biosynthesis inhibitors (CBIs) are useful tools in decoding fundamental aspects of cellulose biosynthesis. Here, I characterize the CBI indaziflam, with a unique mode of action for resistance management, which prevents plant growth by inhibiting cellulose biosynthesis. …
