Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of DNA sequences required for activity of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter
TL;DR: The effects of 5′ deletions in a plant viral promoter in tobacco callus as well as in regenerated plants, includ ing different plant tissues, are analysed to allow a more direct assessment of deletion effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of Arabidopsis thaliana using the floral dip method
TL;DR: The protocol routinely used in the laboratory for the floral dip method for Arabidopsis transformation is described, which can be routinely obtained and a minimum of several hundred independent transgenic lines generated from just two pots of infiltrated plants within 2–3 months.
Journal ArticleDOI
An estrogen receptor-based transactivator XVE mediates highly inducible gene expression in transgenic plants
TL;DR: Neither toxic nor adverse physiological effects of the XVE system have been observed in transgenic Arabidopsis plants under all the conditions tested and it appears to be a reliable and efficient chemical-inducible system for regulating transgene expression in plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Actin Depolymerizing Factor (ADF/Cofilin) Enhances the Rate of Filament Turnover: Implication in Actin-based Motility
Marie-France Carlier,Valérie M. Laurent,Jérôme Santolini,Ronald Melki,Dominique Didry,Gui-Xian Xia,Yan Hong,Nam-Hai Chua,Dominique Pantaloni +8 more
TL;DR: The function of ADF is not to sequester G-actin, but uses ATP hydrolysis in actin assembly to enhance filament dynamics and increase in the rate of actin-based motile processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A glucocorticoid-mediated transcriptional induction system in transgenic plants
Takashi Aoyama,Nam-Hai Chua +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that a stringent chemical control of transcription can be achieved in plants with the GVG system, and can also be regulated by DEX in transgenic Arabidopsis plants.
