Transgenic Mice with Green Fluorescent Protein-labeled Pancreatic -cells
We have generated transgenic mice that express green fluorescent protein (GFP) under the control of the mouse insulin I gene promoter (MIP). The MIP-GFP mice develop normally and are indistinguishable from control animals with respect to glucose tolerance and pancreatic insulin content. Histological studies showed that the MIP-GFP mice had normal islet architecture with co-expression of insulin...
متن کاملCharacterization and quantitation of fluorescent Gag virus-like particles
Background Upon expression, the Gag polyprotein of HIV-1 spontaneously assembles giving rise to enveloped virus-like particles (VLPs). These particulate immunogens offer great promise as HIV-1 vaccines. In order to develop robust VLP manufacturing processes, the availability of simple, fast and reliable quantitation tools is crucial. Traditionally, commercial p24 ELISA kits are used to estimate...
متن کاملPhotooxidation-Guided Ultrastructural Identification and Analysis of Cells in Neuronal Tissue Labeled with Green Fluorescent Protein
The ultrastructural characterization of neuronal compartments in intact tissue labeled with green fluorescent protein (GFP) remains a frequently encountered challenge, despite work establishing photooxidation of GFP in cultured cells. However, most applications require the detection of GFP or GFP fusion proteins expressed in intact tissue. Here, we report that illumination of GFP variants in ox...
متن کاملTransient expression of green fluorescent protein in radish (Raphanus sativus) using a turnip mosaic virus based vector
It is possible to use transgenic plants, as bioreactors, for the production of recombinant inexpensive chemicals and drug components. Transient gene expression is an appropriate alternative to stable transformation because it allows an inexpensive and rapid method for expression of recombinant proteins in plant tissues. In recent years, plant viral vectors have been increasingly developed as su...
متن کاملProtein delivery using engineered virus-like particles.
Over the years, researchers have developed several methods to deliver macromolecules into the cytosol and nucleus of living cells. However, there are limitations to all of these methods. The problems include (i) inefficient uptake, (ii) endosomal entrapment, (iii) delivery that is restricted to certain cell types, and (iv) damage to cells in the delivery process. Retroviral vectors are often us...
