A Major Advance in Plastid Transformation.
In this issue of Plant Physiology, Pal Maliga’s laboratory reported a major advance in plastid transformation. Stable manipulation of the plastid genome of flowering plants was first reported nearly 30 years ago (Svab et al., 1990). The approach was to select transplastomic plants using spectinomycin, which blocks translation by the prokaryotic-type 70S ribosomes found in plastids. Thus, in the...
متن کاملRecent advances in plastid transformation
Plastid transformation offers a viable alternative to nuclear transformation because of its numerous advantages. It was against this backdrop that various groups of researchers have been exploiting this group of sub-cellular organelles, over the last two decades, for the genetic engineering of agronomic traits and metabolic pathways, as well as for molecular farming for the production of plant-...
متن کاملEfficient Plastid Transformation in Arabidopsis1[OPEN]
Plastid transformation is routine in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) but 100-fold less frequent in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), preventing its use in plastid biology. A recent study revealed that null mutations in ACC2, encoding a plastid-targeted acetylcoenzyme A carboxylase, cause hypersensitivity to spectinomycin. We hypothesized that plastid transformation efficiency should increase in t...
متن کاملProgress towards commercialization of plastid transformation technology.
Tobacco chloroplasts are ready to be tested as a platform for the expression of recombinant proteins on a commercial scale. They hold the promise of reproducible yields of 5-25% of total soluble cellular protein in leaves and reliability has been achieved through refinement of an expression toolkit that includes vectors, recently developed expression cassettes and systems for marker gene remova...
متن کاملRegeneration of Glyphosate-Tolerant Nicotiana tabacum after Plastid Transformation with a Mutated Variant of Bacterial aroA gene
Presence of antibiotic resistance markers has always been considered as one of the main safety concerns in transgenic plants and their derived products. Elimination of antibiotic selectable markers from transgenics is a major hurdle for finding efficient and safe candidates. Herbicide tolerance genes might be attractive alternatives. In this study, a variant form of the 5-enoylpyruvyl shikimate...
