Incorporation of reporter genes into mitochondrial DNA in budding yeast
Summary: Many aspects of mitochondrial gene expression are still unknown, which can be attributed to limitations in molecular tools. Here, we present a protocol to introduce reporter genes into the mitochondrial genome of budding yeast, Saccharomyces ...

Complex interactions between cis-regulatory modules in native conformation are critical for Drosophila snail expression [PDF]
It has been shown in several organisms that multiple cis-regulatory modules (CRMs) of a gene locus can be active concurrently to support similar spatiotemporal expression.

Imaging Molecular Pathways: Reporter Genes [PDF]
Molecular imaging is a rapidly advancing field that allows cancer biologists to look deeper into the complex inner workings of tumor cells, or whole tumors, in a non-invasive manner. In this review, we will summarize some recent advances that enable investigators to study various important biological processes in tumors in vivo.
