Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA NAPIN PROMOTER ACTIVATES GENE EXPRESSION IN DEVELOPING SEEDS OF LESQUERELLA FENDLERIGrace Q. Chen, Jiann-Tsyh LinLesquerella fendleri produces industrial useful Hydroxy Fatty Acids (HFA) in seed oil. To improve oil and HFA of L. fendleri, it is desirable to use of seed-specific promoters to control the expression of target genes by genetic engineering. A seed-specific promoter fragment, -397 to -1 of a napin gene (PnapA) from Brassic napus was isolated by PCR and constructed to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Sep 2012 · 7,890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleScreening of Pseudomonas sp. Isolated from Rhizosphere of Soybean Plant as Plant Growth Promoter and Biocontrol AgentAris Tri Wahyudi, Rika Indri Astuti, GiyantoAbstract: Problem statement: Pseudomonas spesies are one of the rihizobacterial group that have an important role in plant growth promoter and plant health. To prepare them as inoculants, they must have a range of characters as growth promoter such as Indole Acetic Acid (IAA) producers which can promote the growth of plants and solubilize phosphates. In addition, they must also … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2011 · 9,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessment of Site Specific Mutational Effect on Transcription Initiation at Escherichia coli PromoterS. Kannan, M. Krishnan, S. Sundarraj et al.Problem statement: It is widely accepted thought that the weak promoters control the RNA synthesis and play regulatory role in complex genetic networks in bacterial system. An experiment had been designed to address whether mutations in the -16/-17 region affect the rate of transcription at an activator-independent promoter in E. coli or not? Approach: The aim of this study was … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,555 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleG-2548A Leptin Promoter and Q223R Leptin Receptor Polymorphisms in Obese Mexican SubjectsP. Carrillo-Vazquez Jonathan, Lopez-Alcantar Jeronimo, Chimal-Vega Brenda et al.Leptin interaction with its receptor in the hypothalamus stimulates a specific signaling cascade that results in the synthesis of anorexigenic and orexigenic peptides in order to regulate food intake and energy expenditure. Many polymorphisms in leptin (lep) and leptin receptor (lepr) genes have been associated with body weight. In particular, G-2548A in the lep promoter and Q223R in lepr variants … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 12 Feb 2013 · 8,641 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInduced Production of α-Tocotrienol by Co-Suppression of Tocopherol Cyclase Gene in Vegetable CropsUmaiyal Munusamy, Siti Nor Akmar Abdullah, Maheran Abdul Aziz et al.This study involves the induced production of α-tocotrienol by the co-suppression of tocopherol cyclase gene. The Tocopherol/Tocotrienol Cyclase (TC) is a key enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of α-tocotrienol. The partial conserved cDNA of TC gene isolated from the oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) that shared greater than 75% sequence identity with TC sequences from other plant species was used to … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2013 · 7,706 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTransformation of Lesquerella Fendleri with the New Binary Vector pGPro4-35SGrace Q. Chen, Roger Thilmony, Jiann-Tsyh LinProblem statement: Crop genetic engineering requires the use of various promoters to control the expression of introduced transgenes. Some of the binary vectors currently available for promoter characterization in dicotyledonous plants have pitfalls due to their construction, such as containing a selectable marker cassette with enhancer sequences that can potentially interfere with the expression specificity of nearby promoters. Also, many … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 19 Jan 2012 · 7,425 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Inducible System for the Identification of Target Genes for a Regulator in MycobacteriaShruti Jain, Garima Khare, Pushplata Tripathi, Anil K. TyagiWe described principle and application of an inducible system for identification of target genes of a given mycobacterial protein with a regulatory function. This vector system, a promoterprobe vector, carries (i) promoterless lacZ as the reporter gene and (ii) the mycobacterial gene encoding the regulatory protein under the transcriptional control of the promoter of highly inducible mycobacterial gene encoding acetamidase. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,249 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsQuails Response to Aqueous Extract of Bush Marigold (Aspilia africana) LeafE. A. Agiang, O. O.K. Oko, G. E. Essien, Juan Eduardo Suarez RivadeneiraProblem statement: The effects of inclusion of aqueous extract of Bush marigold (Aspilia africana) leaf in quail diet were investigated. One hundred and fifty Japanese quail chicks were used in the study. Approach: In the 14-weeks feeding experiment, the birds were assigned to five treatments of; 0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5 and 10% inclusion of aqueous extract of Bush marigold leaf. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 24 Jan 2012 · 9,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of SBP Gene Family and Analysis of Expression Patterns Under Salt Stress in QuinoaWeihai Hou, Jianlin Wang, Zongyu Zhang et al.This study aimed to identify the Squamosa promoter Binding Protein (SBP) transcription factor from the whole genome of quinoa by analyzing its phylogenetic relationship, gene structure, chromosome location, gene replication, upstream cis-regulatory elements, tissue expression, and construction of the SBP protein interaction network, as well as the characteristics of its tissue expression pattern under salt stress.
