Techniques for the removal of marker genes from transgenic plants.

Abstract:

:The presence of marker genes encoding antibiotic or herbicide resistances in genetically modified plants poses a number of problems. Various techniques are under development for the removal of unwanted marker genes, while leaving required transgenes in place. The aim of this brief review is to describe the principal methods used for marker gene removal, concentrating on the most recent and promising innovations in this technology.

  • De novo cholesterol synthesis at the crossroads of adaptive response to extracellular stress through SREBP.

    abstract::Cell sterol supply is subjected to tight negative feedback regulation through the SREBP pathway. Upon cholesterol depletion, SREBP transcription factors become activated by cleavage of a membrane bound precursor form, which stimulates the expression of the genes encoding proteins of the cholesterol synthesis pathway. ...
