Figure 2: General methodology for the detection of labeled mRNA using either NBT/BCIP colorimetric or Alexa Fluor tyramide (TSA) fluorimetric methods. Another variable that helps give clean results ...
Inducible promoters provide remarkable utility when sustained transgene expression compromises plant development or agronomic ...
1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthase (ACS) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the ethylene biosynthetic pathway in plants. The Arabidopsis genome encodes nine ACS polypeptides that form eight ...
In high-precision bioengineering and synthetic biology, the fine-tuning of gene expression at transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels is essential. This involves a detailed understanding and ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue University scientists have discovered evidence that the repressive structures that plants use to keep genes turned off is built with a potential self-destruct switch. The ...
The Hypertrans process begins with N. benthamiana, which is grown for use as a bioreactor. Then, recombinant A. tumefaciens containing a protein expression system is introduced into the gaps between ...
Interest in “molecular farming”—using plants to make therapeutic proteins—is growing, all puns intended. The surge is thanks, in part, to new technologies that offer the chance to scale production ...
