Transgene copy number estimation and analysis of gene expression levels in Populus spp. transgenic lines
Background The genus Populus has certain important features, such as a relatively small nuclear genome, it can be easily regenerated easily in vitro and genetically transformed by Agrobacterium vector system, which make it ideal for gene transfer and molecular genetic studies in forest trees [1]. Insect-tolerant poplars have been obtained using several types of insecticidal genes coding for Bac...
متن کاملTransgene Expression Is Associated with Copy Number and Cytomegalovirus Promoter Methylation in Transgenic Pigs
Transgenic animals have been used for years to study gene function, produce important proteins, and generate models for the study of human diseases. However, inheritance and expression instability of the transgene in transgenic animals is a major limitation. Copy number and promoter methylation are known to regulate gene expression, but no report has systematically examined their effect on tran...
متن کاملBAC TG-EMBED: one-step method for high-level, copy-number-dependent, position-independent transgene expression
Chromosome position effects combined with transgene silencing of multi-copy plasmid insertions lead to highly variable and usually quite low expression levels of mini-genes integrated into mammalian chromosomes. Together, these effects greatly complicate obtaining high-level expression of therapeutic proteins in mammalian cells or reproducible expression of individual or multiple transgenes. He...
متن کاملDetermination of transgene copy number by real-time quantitative PCR.
Efficient methods to characterize transgenic plants are important to quickly understand the state of the transformant. Determining transgene copy number is an important step in transformant characterization and can differentiate between complex and simple transformation events. This knowledge can be extremely useful when determining what future experiments and uses the transgenic lines can be u...
متن کاملEffect of Ploidy Elevation, Copy Number and Parent-of-origin on Transgene Expression in Potato
Recent advances in plant genetic engineering offer substantial benefits to farmers throughout the world. Genetic research has identified many exogenous genes that could considerably decrease production costs through transgene-mediated resistance to insect, viral, fungal and bacterial pathogens. Potato can be produced from true potato seed (TPS) through a sexual polyploidization step, known as 4...
