Selectable Marker Gene Removal and Expression of Transgene by Inducible Promoter Containing FFDD Cis-Acting elements in Transgenic plants
Abstract Background: Selectable marker gene (SMG) systems are critical for generation of transgenic crops. Transgenic crop production Background: Selectable marker gene (SMG) systems are critical for generation of transgenic crops. Transgenic crop production without using SMG is not economically feasible. However, SMGs are non-essential once an intact transgenic plant has been established. Eli...
متن کاملDiscrete spatial and temporal cis-acting elements regulate transcription of the Arabidopsis floral homeotic gene APETALA3.
The APETALA3 floral homeotic gene is required for petal and stamen development in Arabidopsis. APETALA3 transcripts are first detected in a meristematic region that will give rise to the petal and stamen primordia, and expression is maintained in this region during subsequent development of these organs. To dissect how the APETALA3 gene is expressed in this spatially and temporally restricted d...
متن کاملCis-acting elements regulating the placenta-specific promoter of the bovine Cyp19 gene.
Cyp19 encodes aromatase cytochrome P450, the key enzyme of oestrogen biosynthesis. In the bovine placenta, the majority of Cyp19 transcripts include a 5' untranslated region which is encoded by exon 1.1; this suggests that its 5'-flanking region is the predominant placental promoter. The aim of the present investigation was to examine the promoter activity of this region and to map cis-acting r...
متن کاملIdentification and regulation of tissue-specific cis-acting elements associated with the human AP-2alpha gene.
Mice lacking transcription factor AP-2alpha exhibit defects in the formation of the head, body wall, heart, neural tube, eye, and limbs, reflecting important sites of AP-2alpha expression in the developing embryo. AP-2alpha is also expressed in the postnatal mammary gland and has been linked to tumor progression and defects in growth regulation in the breast. We have used a transgenic mouse app...
متن کاملEvolutionarily conserved positive and negative cis-acting elements control the blastoderm-specific expression of the Drosophila serendipity α cellularisation gene
The serendipity alpha (sry alpha) cellularisation gene is only transcribed at the blastoderm stage, when this morphogenetic event takes place. We show that a 95 bp sry alpha upstream region is sufficient for blastoderm-specific expression of a lacZ reporter gene. This region encompasses four nucleotide motifs (I-IV, 5' to 3') conserved at similar relative positions in several Drosophila species...
