Signal peptide of potato PinII enhances the expression of Cry1Ac in transgenic tobacco.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The modified Cry1Ac was expressed in transgenic tobacco plants. To allow secretion of the Cry1Ac protein into the intercellular space, the signal peptide sequence of potato proteinase inhibitor II (pinII) was N-terminally fused to the Cry1Ac encoding region. Expression of Cry1Ac in transgenic tobacco plants was assayed with ELISA. The results showed that pinII signal peptide sequence enhanced the expression of Cry1Ac protein and led to the secretion of the Cry1Ac protein in transgenic tobacco plants. GFP gene was also fused to the signal peptide sequence and transformed to tobacco. The results of fluorescent detection showed that GFP had localized in the apoplast of transgenic plants.

Expression of an epitope-based recombinant vaccine against Foot and Mouth Disease (FMDV) in tobacco plant (Nicotiana tabacum)
Regarding high potential of green plants for development of recombinant vaccines, this research was conducted to evaluate expression of a novel recombinant vaccines against Foot and Mouth Disease (FMDV) in tobacco plant. For this purpose, a synthetic gene encoding 129-169 amino acids of foot and mouth disease virus capsid protein VP1 was transferred to tobacco plant via Agrobacterium-mediated g...
متن کاملExpression and antimicrobial activity analysis of dermaseptin B1 recombinant peptides in tobacco transgenic plants
Recently, new molecular breeding and genetic engineering approaches have emerged to overcome the limitations of conventional breeding methods in generating disease-resistance transgenic plants. The use of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) to produce transgenic plants resistant to a wide range of plant pathogens has achieved great success. Among huge number of AMPs, Dermaseptin B1 (DrsB1), an antimi...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Transient Increase in Cytosolic Ca during the Action Potential of Higher Plants with High Temporal Resolution: Requirement of Ca Transients for Induction of Jasmonic Acid Biosynthesis and PINII Gene Expression
; Plants respond to various abiotic stimuli by activation and propagation of fast electrical signals, action potentials. To resolve the temporal increase in cytosolic Ca during the action potentials of higher plants, we regenerated transgenic potato plants that expressed the Ca photoprotein apoaequorin. These genetically engineered potato plants were used for simultaneous measurements of transi...
متن کاملDevelopment and bioassay of transgenic Chinese cabbage expressing potato proteinase inhibitor II gene
Lepidopteran larvae are the most injurious pests of Chinese cabbage production. We attempted the development of transgenic Chinese cabbage expressing the potato proteinase inhibitor II gene (pinII) and bioassayed the pest-repelling ability of these transgenic plants. Cotyledons with petioles from aseptic seedlings were used as explants for Agrobacterium-mediated in vitro transformation. Agrobac...
متن کاملEvaluation of Substantial Equivalence of salinity-resistant transgenic potato
Transgenic plants and their products are being developed day by day due to their improved characteristics, and it is necessary to evaluate the safety of these plants before releasing them. Hence, the importance of the issue of biosafety of transgenic plants and the use of their products has led the regulatory agencies to create some laws called substantial equivalence. based on that, the essent...
