Journal ArticleDOI
Engineering herbicide resistance in plants by expression of a detoxifying enzyme.
M. De Block,Johan Botterman,Martine Vandewiele,Jan Dockx,C. Thoen,Veronique Gossele,N.Rao Movva,Charles J. Thompson,M. Van Montagu,Jan Leemans +9 more
TL;DR: Transgenic plants showed complete resistance towards high doses of the commercial formulations of phosphinothricin and bialaphos, presenting a successful approach to obtain herbicide‐resistant plants by detoxification of the herbicide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the herbicide-resistance gene bar from Streptomyces hygroscopicus.
Charles J. Thompson,N.Rao Movva,Richard Tizard,Reto Crameri,Julian Davies,Marc Lauwereys,Johan Botterman +6 more
TL;DR: A gene which confers resistance to the herbicide bialaphos (bar), which was originally cloned from Streptomyces hygroscopicus, was characterized and used to engineer herbicide‐resistant plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimizing the expression in E. coli of a synthetic gene encoding somatomedin-C (IGF-I)
Buell Gary N,Marie-Francoise Schulz,Gerald Selzer,André Chollet,N.Rao Movva,Dominique Semon,Sonia Escancz,Eric Kawashima +7 more
TL;DR: Double-stranded DNA encoding the human hormone somatomedin-C (SMC) has been synthesized and inserted into a plasmid bearing the strong leftward promoter (PL) of bacteriophage lambda and expressed in E. coli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasmid-determined bleomycin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus
TL;DR: A 1580-bp fragment of Staphylococcus aureus plasmid pUB110 encoding resistance to the DNA synthesis inhibitor bleomycin has been cloned and sequenced and limited regions of close relatedness could be identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification of FKBP-70, a novel immunophilin from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and cloning of its structural gene, FPR3.
Ute C. Manning-Krieg,Ruben Henriquez,Florence Cammas,Patrick Graff,Samuel Gavériaux,N.Rao Movva +5 more
TL;DR: A novel protein, belonging to the yeast family of FKBPs (FK‐binding proteins), FKBP‐70, was isolated from Saccharomyces cerevisiae by its interaction with the immunosuppressive agent FK‐520, and its structural gene, FPR3, was cloned and the protein expressed and purified from Escherichia coli.
