Tissue Specific Expression of Human Calcitonin Gene in Potato Tubers by an Organ Specific Promoter
To increase the production level of heterologous proteins in plants, strategies such as choice of strongerpromoters, optimization of codon usage and specific localization of foreign proteins are of major concern.Calcitonin (CT), a 32 amino acid polypeptide is a powerful and specific inhibitor of bone resorption and isused to treat several human diseases. Calcitonin activity is...
متن کاملStimulation of Wound Reactions in Potato Tubers by Thiabendazole
Thiabendazole (TBZ), an antifungal and antihelmintic benzimidazole derivative, after 6 min treatment with a 0.1 m M aqueous solution enhances C 0 2 release in intact potato tubers for up to two hours. There are also indications for a reduced water permeability of isolated periderm layers from TBZ treated potato tubers. Potato slices (ca. 3 mm thick) or discs (with ca. 5 mm diameter) from potato...
متن کاملStructure of potato tubers formed during spaceflight.
Potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Norland) explants, consisting of a leaf, axillary bud, and small stem segment, were used as a model system to study the influence of spaceflight on the formation of sessile tubers from axillary buds. The explants were flown on the space shuttle Columbia (STS-73, 20 October to 5 November 1995) in the ASTROCULTURE (TM) flight package, which provided a controlled e...
متن کاملTurnover and metabolism of chlorogenic Acid in xanthium leaves and potato tubers.
The active turnover of chlorogenic acid (3-caffeoylquinic acid(3)), a major phenolic component of Xanthium leaves and potato tuber disks, has been demonstrated in these tissues. Pulse-labelling experiments with radioactive l-phenylalanine and trans-cinnamic acid as well as direct feeding experiments with chlorogenic acid-(14)C labelled in the caffeoyl moiety have been employed in the turnover s...
متن کاملStarch metabolism in tubers of transgenic potato (Solanum tuberosum) with increased ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase.
The aim of this work was to use tubers from transgenic lines of potato (Solanum tuberosum) containing increased amounts of ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase to study the role of this enzyme in the control of starch synthesis. A 4-5-fold increase in activity of the enzyme, achieved by transformation with the Escherichia coli ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase gene glgC-16, had no detectable effect on the s...
