Construction of a Derivative of Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 That Does Not Mutate to Tetracycline Resistance

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 mutates to tetracycline resistance at high frequency, complicating the use of many broad-host-range cloning and binary vectors that code for resistance to this antibiotic as the selection marker.

Human Microbiome Engineering: The Future and Beyond [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2015
Microbial flora of skin and mucosal surface are vital component of human biology. Current research indicates that this microbial constellation, rather than being inert commensals, has greater implications in health and disease.

Genetically engineering milk [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Research, 2016
It has been thirty years since the first genetically engineered animal with altered milk composition was reported. During the intervening years, the world population has increased from 5bn to 7bn people. An increasing demand for protein in the human diet has followed this population expansion, putting huge stress on the food supply chain.

Transcription Factor-Based Genetic Engineering in Microalgae

open access: yesPlants, 2021
Sequence-specific DNA-binding transcription factors (TFs) are key components of gene regulatory networks. Advances in high-throughput sequencing have facilitated the rapid acquisition of whole genome assembly and TF repertoires in microalgal species.

Genetic Engineering in Mycobacteria

open access: yesMolecular Biology, 2022
Abstract Genetic tools for targeted modification of the mycobacterial genome contribute to the understanding of the physiology and virulence mechanisms of mycobacteria. Human and animal pathogens, such as the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex ...

Constitutive Expression of Pea Defense Gene DRR206 Confers Resistance to Blackleg (Leptosphaeria maculans) Disease in Transgenic Canola (Brassica napus)

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1999
To identify genes effective against the blackleg fungus Leptosphaeria maculans (Phoma lingam), we have transformed canola (Brassica napus) with four pea (Pisum sativum) genes under constitutive control by the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter: PR10.1,

The arrival of genetic engineering [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, 2009
The purpose of this article is to review the different strategies for the delivery of plasmid DNA (pDNA)-based gene therapy. Plasmids are extrachromosomal DNA capable of being transmitted from cell to cell. They are supercoiled, circular covalently closed (ccc) strands of DNA capable of replication independently of host DNA and ranging from 5 to 400 ...

Genetic engineering in athletes [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 2008
Athletes who want to maximise their performance are continually tempted to use illegal drugs to gain competitive advantage and to aid recovery from training and injuries. Recent revelations of widespread doping arising from investigations of the distributionof the anabolic steroid tetrahydrogestrinone by the American company BALCO (Bay Area Laboratory ...
