    Notes: Abstract The cauliflower mosaic virus 35S (35S) and the enhanced 35S (E35S) promoters fused with maize alcohol dehydrogenase (Adh1) intron1 or maize shrunken locus (sh1) intronl along with maize Adh1 and rice actin (Act1) promoters fused to their respective first introns were tested for transient expression of the E.coli β-glucuronidase (gus) reporter gene in cultured barley (Hordeum vulgare L) cells. The plasmids, carrying the respective promoterintron combinations to drive the gus fused to nopaline synthase (nos) terminator, were introduced into cultured barley cells using a particle gun. The rice Act1 promoter with its first intron gave the highest expression of all promoter intron combinations studied. This was followed by the E35S promoter and no significant differences were observed between the other two promoters tested. The rice actin promoter is now being used to drive selectable marker genes to obtain stably transformed cereal cells.

    Notes: Abstract Particle bombardment and Agrobacterium-mediated DNA delivery into immature embryos and microbulbs were used to investigate the expression of the uidA gene in in vitro onion cultures. Both methods were successful in delivering DNA and subsequent uidA expression was observed. Optimal transient β-glucuronidase activity was observed in immature embryos that had been pre-cultured for three days and bombarded at a distance of 3 cm from the stopping plate, under 25 in Hg vacuum, using 900–1300 psi rupture discs. The CaMV35S-uidA gene construct gave five fold higher transient β-glucuronidase activity than the uidA gene construct regulated by any of four other promoters initially chosen for high experession in monocotyledonous tissues.

    Notes: Abstract Fertile transgenic barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) plants were obtained by high velocity particle bombardment. The plasmid pBCl was used to deliver the selectable hph gene and reporter Gus gene into immature embryo. After the selection culture 18 hygromycin resistant plants were obtained. Samples for Southern hybridization and enzymatic Gus assay were obtained from 11 plants. Southern hybridization confirmed the presence of the hph gene in the 11 hygromycin resistant plants(T0). Enzymatic assay indicated that all the t0 plants that showed hph positive in Southern analysis possessed detectable amount of Gus activity. To date all the 11 t0 plants reached maturity and mature seeds were obtained Transmission of the hph gene to progeny(T1) of two independent t0 plants was confirmed by Southern hybridization.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract A number of A/T-rich sequences and a CATGCAT/A sequence are contained in the 5′-upstream regions of the genes encoding concanavalin A (Con A) and canavalin, two major seed storage proteins of Canavalia gladiata D.C. To study the role of these sequences in the seed-specific gene expression, we constructed 5′-deletion mutants and examined the transient expression of β-glucuronidase reporter gene by particle bombardment and the stable expression by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of tobacco plants. Positive regulatory elements were located in the −894/−602 and −602/−74 regions of the Con A gene, and in the −428/−376, −281/−155 and −155/−50 regions of the canavalin gene. In addition, the results suggested that the A/T-rich sequences in the 5′-upstream region of the Con A gene play a role in transcriptional activation, but that those of the canavalin gene have little effect on the gene expression. The CATGCAT/A sequence was not sufficient by itself for high levels of expression of both the Con A and canavalin genes. The canavalin polypeptide amounted to about 1% of the total extractable protein in the transgenic tobacco seeds, but the Con A polypeptide was not detected in the extractable protein.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Two genes, each corresponding to fiber mRNA E6, were isolated from cotton cultivars Coker 312 (Gossypium hirsutum L.) and Sea Island (G. barbadense L.). E6 is one of the predominant fiber-specific mRNAs present during early fiber development. The distinguishing feature of the nucleotide-derived E6 protein is the presence of a motif where a dimer, Ser-Gly, is repeated several times. Two of the Sea Island genes contained a pentameric motif, Ser-Gly, while one of the Coker genes had one and the other had four motifs each. cDNA clones containing one or five Ser-Gly motifs were also identified. Thus, it appears that the strict conservation of this motif may not be critical to E6 protein function. Sequence characterizations of the genes and cDNAs showed that multiple members of the E6 family are transcribed in fiber and may result in proteins 238 to 246 amino acids long. The 3′ ends of the genes and cDNAs showed considerable heterology among them. Transgenic plants containing antisense genes were generated to decipher E6 function. Transgenic cotton with reduced E6 protein levels in the range of 60 to 98% were identified. However, no discernible phenotypic changes in fiber development or properties were apparent. This result leads to the conclusion that E6 is not critical to the normal development or structural integrity of cotton fibers.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Activities of several CaMV 35S and FMV 34S promoter derivatives fused to the gusA reporter gene were compared in suspension-cultured Catharanthus roseus cells that were transiently and stably transformed using particle bombardment. Our data demonstrate that the 35S and a deletion derivative of the 34S promoter combined with particle bombardment form useful tools for genetic engineering of C. roseus cells. Our results disagree on several points with activities of 35S and 34S promoter derivatives reported for tobacco, indicating that absolute and relative promoter activities can differ between plant species.

    Notes: Abstract Gold particles coated with β-glucuronidase (GUS) mRNA with a 5′ cap structure that had been synthesized in vitro were introduced, by use of a pneumatic particle gun, into pollen grains of lily (Lilium longiflorum), freesia (Freesia refracta) and tulip (Tulipa gesneriana). A fluorometric assay for the GUS activity indicated that in vitro synthesized GUS mRNA introduced into these pollen cells by particle bombardment was successfully expressed. GUS activity in extracts of the bombarded lily pollen became detectable fluorometrically within 30 min after bombardment, peaked at 6 h, then gradually decreased. This activity changed as a function of the developmental stage of the pollen cell of lily.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract In this paper we first review literature on the performance of various promoters in monocotyledonous species. In general, promoters isolated from monocots show a higher activity in monocot species. Moreover, the presence of an intron between the promoter and reporter gene increases transcription levels. We used the same approach to study gene expression in Liliaceae. The activities of the CaMV 35S, maize Adh1-based pEmu, rice Act1 and maize Ubi promoters, coupled to the β-glucuronidase (gus) reporter gene, were evaluated for transient gene expression upon particle bombardment of tissues of tobacco, rice, tulip, lily and leek. Although monocot promoters performed very well in rice tissues, the results of this study show that this cannot be generalized for other monocot species. The transcription inducing effects of monocot promoters were less pronounced or even absent in tissues of Liliaceae, while the presence of an intron between promoter and gus gene reduced promoter activity.
