摘要:
A plant promoter capable of inducing the expression specifically at the site and stage wherein the reconstitution of plant cell wall xyloglucan is necessary, namely, a plant promoter originating in a gene which encodes an endo-xyloglucan transferase or a gene which encodes a substance having a function equivalent thereto; and a method for modifying the function of a plant with the use of the plant promoter and a method for cloning the plant promoter.
摘要:

摘要:
A vector which is characterized in containing each of the following elements: (1) a promoter which shows its action in the host to be used; (2) regulatory region for regulating the action of the promoter of (1); and (3) a region which codes for the 5′-untranslated region derived from cold-shock protein gene mRNA or a region which codes for the region where substitution, deletion, insertion or addition of at least one base is applied to the said untranslated region.
摘要:
To provide a method for selecting a marker gene useful for cancer classification; a method for classifying cancer using the gene; a method for detecting cancer; a kit usable for the classification method or detection method; and a DNA array carrying the gene. According to the present invention, there can be obtained a gene, wherein expression of the above gene is altered independently from genes each of which expression is altered specifically during cell proliferation and expression level of the above gene is specifically altered depending on every type of cancer samples to be tested, whereby the classification or detection of cancer can be carried out conveniently and quickly without giving surgical treatment. Therefore, the present invention is useful for the diagnosis, the treatment, and the like of cancer.

Remedies or preventives for diseases with a need for immunoregulation, diseases with a need for inhibition of inflammation, diseases with a need for regulation of tumor necrosis factor production, diseases with a need for regulation of fungal growth, diseases with a need for regulation of cell adhesion or disease with a deed for induction of heat-shock protein, which contain as the active ingredient at least one compound selected from among cyclopentenone derivatives represented by general formula [I], optically active isomers and salts thereof, wherein R1 and R2 are the same or different and each represents hydrogen, an aliphatic group, an aromatic group or an aromatic aliphatic group.
摘要:
The invention provides an isolated gene coding for a protein regulating aureobasidin sensitivity; a process for cloning the gene with the use of the gene or a part of the same as a probe; a nucleic acid probe being hybridizable with the gene; an antisense DNA or RNA of the gene; a recombinant or transformant having the gene contained therein; an isolated protein regulating aureobasidin sensitivity and a process for producing the same by using the transformant; an antibody for the protein; a process for detecting the protein or the gene; and a process for screening an antimycotic by using the protein or the transformant. The invention is useful in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases including mycoses.
摘要:
The present invention provides a protein regulating the sensitivity of fungus to an antimycotic aureobasidin, a gene coding for this protein, the use thereof, an antibody for the protein and the use thereof. The invention is useful in the diagnosis and treatment for diseases including mycoses. The invention also provides a novel chromosome integration vector capable of imparting a novel selective marker of a drug resistance to a fungal transformant, a transformant transformed with this vector and a process for producing the same. In particular, it provides a protein capable of imparting the resistance to aureobasidin and acting as a selective marker and a DNA coding for the same.
