beta glucuronidase/pea

ABSTRACT Plant nonhost disease resistance is characterized by the induction of multiple defense genes. The pea DRR206 gene is induced following inoculation with pathogens and treatment with abiotic agents, and moderately induced by wounding. A deletion series of DRR206 promoter segments was fused

An intron-containing beta-glucuronidase (GUS) gene has been used widely in promoter analyses and as a plant transformation marker. Maximal plant gene expression requires accurate and efficient removal of the intron from the expressed pre-mRNA transcripts by splicing. Detailed analysis of splicing of

The transit peptide of the waxy protein of maize which in the maize plant targets this protein only into amyloplasts was used for in vitro protein transport experiments with isolated amyloplasts from maize and chloroplasts from maize, pea and potato. In the presence of both intact and disrupted

The role of an A/T-rich positive regulatory region (P268, -444 to -177 from the translation start site) of the pea plastocyanin gene (PetE) promoter has been investigated in transgenic plants containing chimeric promoters fused to the beta-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene. This region enhanced GUS
