Ammonia-regulated expression of a soybean gene encoding cytosolic glutamine synthetase in transgenic Lotus corniculatus.
A full-length cDNA clone encoding cytosolic glutamine synthetase (GS), expressed in roots and root nodules of soybean, was isolated by direct complementation of an Escherichia coli gln A- mutant. This sequence is induced in roots by the availability of ammonia. A 3.5-kilobase promoter fragment of a genomic clone (lambda GS15) corresponding to this cDNA was isolated and fused with a reporter [be...
متن کاملExpression of a complete soybean leghemoglobin gene in root nodules of transgenic Lotus corniculatus.
The complete soybean leghemoglobin lbc(3) gene was transferred into the legume Lotus corniculatus using an Agrobacterium rhizogenes vector system. Organ-specific expression of the soybean gene was observed in root nodules formed on regenerated transgenic plants after infection with Rhizobium loti. The primary transcript was processed in the same way as in soybean nodules and the resulting mRNA ...
متن کاملExpression of cytosolic acetyl-CoA synthetase gene is developmentally regulated
Acetyl-CoA synthetase (AceCS) provides acetyl-CoA for different physiological processes, such as fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis, as well as the citric acid cycle. We show here that the cytosolic isoform of this enzyme, AceCS1, is expressed during mouse development. In the embryonic stage E9.5 AceCS1 transcripts localize in the cephalic region. At E10.5 the cephalic expression intensifies ...
متن کاملTwo glutamine synthetase genes from Phaseolus vulgaris L. display contrasting developmental and spatial patterns of expression in transgenic Lotus corniculatus plants.
The gln-gamma gene, which specifies the gamma subunit of glutamine synthetase in Phaseolus vulgaris L., has been isolated and the regulatory properties of its promoter region analyzed in transgenic Lotus corniculatus plants. A 2-kilobase fragment from the 5'-flanking region of gln-gamma conferred a strongly nodule-enhanced pattern of expression on the beta-glucuronidase reporter gene. Parallel ...
متن کاملLotus corniculatus nodulation specificity is changed by the presence of a soybean lectin gene
Plant lectins have been implicated as playing an important role in mediating recognition and specificity in the Rhizobium-legume nitrogen-fixing symbiosis. To test this hypothesis, we introduced the soybean lectin gene Le1 either behind its own promoter or behind the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter into Lotus corniculatus, which is nodulated by R. loti. We found that nodulelike outgrowths...
