Cis-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 کاملSelectable 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 کاملCis-acting elements in the antigenomic promoter of Nipah virus.
Genome synthesis in paramyxoviruses, including Nipah virus (NiV), is controlled by sequence elements that reside in the non-coding nucleotides at the 5'-trailer (3'-antigenomic) end that make up the antigenomic promoter (AGP). Using a chloramphenicol acetyl transferase-based plasmid-driven minigenome system, the terminal 96 nt of NiV AGP were first mutagenized in blocks of three hexamers to ena...
متن کاملDistinct cis-acting elements direct pistil-specific and pollen-specific activity of the Brassica S locus glycoprotein gene promoter.
The promoter of the S Locus Glycoprotein (SLG) gene of Brassica is a tightly regulated promoter that is active specifically in reproductive organs. In transgenic tobacco, this promoter is active exclusively in cells of the pistil and in pollen. We transformed tobacco with truncated versions of the SLG13 promoter fused to the beta-glucuronidase reporter gene. We show that the promoter has a modu...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of the cis-acting elements of the human CD155 gene core promoter.
The CD155 protein is the founding member of a new group of related molecules within the immunoglobulin superfamily sharing a V-C2-C2 domain structure and significant amino acid identity. We have recently isolated the promoter of the CD155 gene so that we may determine the transcription factors that regulate its expression and possibly gain insight into the cell biology of this gene. Here we rep...
