摘要:
A new type of transgene system is disclosed which allows efficient protein expression in a target host such as a plant, but avoids the undesirable result of the migration of the transgene into related host systems and/or to the environment via the pollen. The methods described herein may also be applied to the expression of virtually any protein of interest (e.g. a toxic protein) in eukaryotic (yeast, insect, mammalian cells, etc.) and prokaryotic (E. coli, etc.) organisms.

摘要:
Provided herein, among other things, are various compositions and methods for analyzing chromatin. In some embodiments, the composition may comprise a mixture of a nicking enzyme, four dNTPs, at least one labeled dNTP and, optionally, a polymerase. In some embodiments, this method may comprise: obtaining a sample comprising chromatin, reacting the sample with the composition to selectively label the open chromatin in the sample, and analyzing the labeled sample.

摘要:
Methods and compositions are described for detecting hydroxymethylated nucleotides (hmNs) in a polynucleotide preparation with a view to mapping the location of hmNs in a genome, quantifying the occurrence of hmNs at selected loci and correlating the occurrence of hmNs with gene expression and phenotypic traits. Embodiments describe the use of modifying enzymes together with site-specific endonucleases to detect the hmNs.
摘要:
Methods and compositions are provided which relate to translocating an RNA corresponding to a gene or gene fragment into the chloroplast by means of a chloroplast localization sequence. Additionally plant cells are described in which the chloroplast contains a ribozyme fused at one end to an RNA encoding a fragment of the protein such that the ribozyme can trans-splice the translocated fusion RNA to the RNA encoding the gene fragment to form an intact mRNA encoding a functional protein.
