Tissue-specific expression of a wheat high molecular weight glutenin gene in transgenic tobacco.
The expression of a wheat genomic clone containing the entire coding sequence of the high molecular weight glutenin subunit 12 gene flanked by 2.6 kilobases of 5' and 1.5 kilobases of 3' sequences has been studied after introduction into tobacco. Seeds of different tobacco plants containing the full-length wheat genomic clone accumulated different amounts of intact high molecular weight gluteni...
متن کاملCellular Localization of Wheat High Molecular Weight Glutenin Subunits in Transgenic Rice Grain
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a primary global food cereal. However, when compared to wheat, rice has poor food processing qualities. Dough that is made from rice flour has low viscoelasticity because rice seed lacks storage proteins that are comparable to gluten protein from wheat. Thus, current research efforts aim to improve rice flour processing qualities through the transgenic expression of vi...
متن کاملIdentification of an enhancer element for the endosperm-specific expression of high molecular weight glutenin.
Genes encoding high molecular weight (HMW) glutenin, a wheat seed storage protein, are expressed only in the developing endosperm. It was previously demonstrated that sequences essential for endosperm-specific transcription reside within 436 base pairs upstream of the initiation codon for HMW glutenin translation. We have further analyzed this region by testing the ability of a series of trunca...
متن کاملConserved cis-regulatory modules in promoters of genes encoding wheat high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits
The concentration and composition of the gliadin and glutenin seed storage proteins (SSPs) in wheat flour are the most important determinants of its end-use value. In cereals, the synthesis of SSPs is predominantly regulated at the transcriptional level by a complex network involving at least five cis-elements in gene promoters. The high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) are encoded b...
متن کاملQuality trait variations in [⁶⁰Co]-irradiated wheat and high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit mutant identification.
With 300 Gy of [(60)Co] γ-ray radiation of dry wheat seeds of Vortex 9722, the protein content, wet gluten content, sedimentation value, and hardness variation were analyzed in 341 lines in M4. Using over population mean ± 2X standard deviation as the screening standard, 8 lines with higher protein and wet gluten content and 4 lines with lower protein and wet gluten content were selected. In th...
