Retrovirus vectors and their uses in molecular biology [PDF]
BioEssays, 1986 AbstractRetroviral vectors utilize the biochemical processes unique to retroviruses, to transfer genes with high efficiency into a wide variety of cell types in tissue culture and in living animals. With such vectors, the effect of newly introduced genes and the mechanism of gene expression can be studied in cell types so far refractory to other ...

Gene amplification by PCR and subcloning into a GFP‐fusion plasmid expression vector as a molecular biology laboratory course* [PDF]
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2004 AbstractA novel experimental sequence for the advanced undergraduate laboratory course has been developed at Earlham College. Utilizing recent improvements in molecular techniques for a time‐sensitive environment, undergraduates were able to create a chimera of a selected gene and green fluorescent protein (GFP) in a bacterial expression plasmid over ...

Journal of King Saud University - Science, 2022 The Geminiviridae family has become the largest family of plant viruses, with >300 species and nine genera. This classification is based on genome organization, host range and insect-vectors. The capsid structure of geminiviruses is unique and constructed from twinned icosahedral with 110 duplicates of coat protein.

Biology, Bionomics and Molecular Biology of Anopheles sinensis Wiedemann 1828 (Diptera: Culicidae), Main Malaria Vector in China [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 La Chine s'est fixé pour objectif d'éliminer tous les cas de paludisme dans le pays d'ici 2020, mais il n'est pas clair si la compréhension actuelle des vecteurs et de la transmission du paludisme est suffisante pour atteindre cet objectif. Anopheles sinensis est l'espèce de vecteur de paludisme la plus répandue en Chine, qui est également responsable ...

Comparison of the standard WHO susceptibility tests and the CDC bottle bioassay for the determination of insecticide susceptibility in malaria vectors and their correlation with biochemical and molecular biology assays in Benin, West Africa [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2013 The detection of insecticide resistance in natural populations of Anopheles vectors is absolutely necessary for malaria control. In the African region, the WHO insecticide susceptibility test is the most common method for assessing resistance status.

An updated pGREEN-based vector suite for cost-effective cloning in plant molecular biology. [PDF]
microPublication biology, 2020 Traditional binary shuttle vectors used for creating plant T-DNA insertion mutants can be difficult to work with for several reasons. First, their large size (> 10 kB) and low-copy origin of replication result in low plasmid yields under typical growth conditions. This makes time consuming, and costly, midi or maxi scale plasmid isolation a requirement.
