Plant biotechnology in agriculture.
Knowledge on plant genomes has progressed during the past few years. Two plant genomes, those of Arabidopsis thaliana and rice, have been sequenced. Our present knowledge of synteny also indicates that, despite plasticity contributing to the diversity of the plant genomes, the organization of genes is conserved within large sections of chromosomes. In parallel, novel plant transformation system...
متن کاملInhibitors of Serine Proteinase – Application in Agriculture and Medicine
Inhibitors are important elements of regulation of enzyme activity. They can be named ubiquitous components in living organisms (Fan & Wu, 2005). There is a number of inhibitors, such as protein and nonprotein. Among all inhibitors, the most significant are inhibitors of hydrolytic enzymes. Hydrolases are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of chemical bonds. For example, proteolytic enzymes (...
متن کاملBiotechnology and Its Application in Agriculture
The man to first tame an animal and the woman to first plant a seed were the biotechnologists of past millennia. Recent rapid advances have dimmed the lustre of older achievements and have led to some excesses in expectations. Nevertheless, new techniques grouped under the banner of biotechnology do promise increases in accuracy, efficiency and productivity. Toxins are detected at new low level...
متن کاملEngineering thermostability in serine protease inhibitors.
Unlike most globular proteins, the native form of serine protease inhibitors (serpins) is strained. Previous studies of human alpha(1)-antitrypsin, a prototype plasma serpin, revealed that various unfavorable interactions, such as overpacking of side chains, buried polar groups and cavities, are the structural basis of the strain. The local strain could be relieved by various stabilizing single...
متن کاملAdvances in plant molecular farming.
Plant molecular farming (PMF) is a new branch of plant biotechnology, where plants are engineered to produce recombinant pharmaceutical and industrial proteins in large quantities. As an emerging subdivision of the biopharmaceutical industry, PMF is still trying to gain comparable social acceptance as the already established production systems that produce these high valued proteins in microbia...
