A plant expression plasmid was constructed under the control of CaMV35s promoter and was used in rice transformation. The target gene was successfully introduced into mature embryos of a japonica rice cultivar Jindao 107 by Agrobacterium- mediated transformation and hundreds of transgenic plants were obtained. The exogenous atzA gene in the transgenic plants that expressed atrazine resistance was confirmed by Southern blot hybridization. The resistance experiments by spraying transgenic rice plants with 0.133% atrazine shown that most of the transgenic rice plants exhibited the resistance to herbicide atrazine. The segregation of exogenous atzA gene in T1 progeny corresponded to the Mendelian ratio.展开更多
Objective: To study the disruption of co- localization of human Daxx(hDaxx) with promyelocytic leukemia protein(PML) at the PML oncogenic domains (PODs) by the interaction of hDaxx with adenovirus(Ad) 12 E1B 55 Kiloda...Objective: To study the disruption of co- localization of human Daxx(hDaxx) with promyelocytic leukemia protein(PML) at the PML oncogenic domains (PODs) by the interaction of hDaxx with adenovirus(Ad) 12 E1B 55 Kilodalton Oncoprotein (Ad12 E1B 55kD). Methods: The direct binding reaction of hDaxx and Ad12 E1B 55kD was analyzed by coimmunoprecipitation and Western blotting in vivo or in vitro. The interaction of hDaxx with Ad12 E1B 55kD was studied using yeast two-hybrid assay. Results: hDaxx bounded directly to Ad12 E1B 55kD in vivo and in vitro. hDaxx interacted with full length Ad12 E1B 55kD. Conclusion: Transcriptional regulator hDaxx directly binds to and interacts with Ad12 E1B 55kD.展开更多
