Several methods are available for use, to deliver the gene of interest into plants. Among these, Agrobacterium-mediated transformation utilizes binary vector systems achieve stable Alas, this process is labor-intensive and time-consuming as several months needed obtain a true transgenic plant. Transient expression (e.g., vacuum-infiltration) were offered an alternative over transformation, spec...

Objective(s): The alteration of glucose transporters is closely related with the pathogenesis of brain edema. We compared neuronal damage/death in the hippocampus between adult and young gerbils following transient cerebral ischemia/reperfusion and changes of glucose transporter-1(GLUT-1)-immunoreactive microvessels in their ischemic hippocampal CA1 region. Materials and Methods: Transient cere...

In the present paper, an exact solution for transient response of an infinitely long functionally graded thick-walled cylinder subjected to dynamic pressures at the boundary surfaces is presented for arbitrary initial conditions. The cylinder is assumed to have a plane-strain condition and the dynamic pressures are assumed to be imposed uniformly and axis...

Large-scale transient gene expression in mammalian cells is being developed for the rapid production of recombinant proteins for biochemical and preclinical studies. Here, the scalability of transient production of a recombinant human antibody in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells was demonstrated in orbitally shaken disposable bioreactors at scales from 50 mL to 50 L. First, a small-scale multi...

Rpg1b and Rpg1r are soybean disease resistance (R) genes responsible for conferring resistance to Pseudomonas syringae strains expressing the effectors AvrB and AvrRpm1, respectively. The study of these cloned genes would be greatly facilitated by the availability of a suitable transient expression system. The commonly used Niciotiana benthamiana-based system is not suitable for studying Rpg1b ...

We investigate the relationship of protein-protein interactions with mRNA expression levels, by integrating a variety of data sources for yeast. We focus on known protein complexes that have clearly defined interactions between their subunits. We find that subunits of the same protein complex show significant coexpression, both in terms of similarities of absolute mRNA levels and expression pro...

background: sustainable and commercial production of taxol as an anti cancer drug is a critical point to its clinical application. nowadays, hazel because of rapid growth and wide range distribution is considered as an alternative source of taxol. objective: to increase taxol production the cdna encoding 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coa reductase (hmgr) from iranian hazel (genebank accession numb...

Transient transfection of human embryonic kidney cells (HEK 293) enables the rapid and affordable lab-scale production of recombinant proteins. In this chapter protocols for the expression and purification of both secreted and intracellular proteins using transient expression in HEK 293 cells are described.

Transient gene expression, in plant protoplasts or specific plant tissues, is a key technique in plant molecular cell biology, aimed at exploring gene products and their modifications to examine functional subdomains, their interactions with other biomolecules, and their subcellular localization. Here, we highlight some of the major advantages and potential pitfalls of the most commonly used tr...
