Safety Assessment of cryIAc for human, animals and environment
Risk assessment of a transgene is one of the key steps in genetic transformation. Hence, in order to use cryIAc gene for production of transgenic plants, a library and in-silico research was performed to confirm safety of the gene for human comsumption, animal feed and environment. In the first step, the molecular mechanism of action of the CryIAc protein and its specific receptors in the midgu...
متن کاملImpacts of in vitro thermal stress on ovine epididymal spermatozoa and the protective effect of β-mercaptoethanol as an antioxidant
Most aspects of reproductive function including spermatogenesis, oocyte growth and maturation, early embryonic development, fetal and placental growth, and lactation can be affected by thermal stress. Furthermore, it has been shown that oxidative stress involves in the pathology of thermal stress. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the impacts of thermal stress on the ovine mat...
متن کاملEnzymatic detoxification of Don in transgenic plants via expression of Fusarium graminearum Tri101 gene
Fusarium graminearum is causal agent of economically catastrophic disease of cereal Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) around the world. In addition to causing a loss of yield, this fungus causes serious threats to humans and animals due to the contamination of grain with the trichothecene mycotoxin. TRI101 gene, a Fusarium spp. gene, encodes an enzyme that transfers an acetyl group to the C3 hydroxyl ...
متن کاملCharacterization of a transgenic mouse line over-expressing the human ornithine decarboxylase gene.
We have produced several transgenic mouse lines over-expressing the human ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) gene. We have now characterized one of the transgenic lines as regards the tissue accumulation of the polyamines and the activities of their metabolizing enzymes. Among the tissues analysed, the polyamine pattern was most strikingly changed in testis and brain of the transgenic animals. ODC a...
متن کاملEffect of Genetically Modified Rice on Some Intestinal Microbial Flora in Rats
Background and purpose: Transgenic rice is a type of rice that its genetic sequence has been changed to improve its quantity and quality. Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) transgenic rice expresses Cry1Ab protein and is named Tarom Molaii. There are no studies on the effect of this type of transgenic rice on gastrointestinal health in Iran, so, this study investigated the effect of Tarom Molaii tran...
متن کاملUses of GFP in transgenic vertebrates.
The ability to express exogenous DNA in vertebrate animals has been invaluable to a wide range of biological studies. Our understanding of processes as diverse as gene expression, cell lineage relationships, and gene function have all benefited from the use of " transgenic " animals. Traditionally, analysis of reporter genes such as lacZ in transgenic animals usually involved killing the animal...
