Immunocytological Analysis of Chromatin in Isolated Nuclei
Time of Update: 2020-11-20
All cells in a multicellular organism have the same genetic constitution, yet their appearance and function may differ enormously, due to differences in the nuclear program.
The study of these epigenetic factors in individual cells requires the microscopic visualization of chromatin components.

Detection and Quantification of Transcript RNA in Transgenic Plants Using Digoxigenin-Labeled cDNA Probes
Time of Update: 2020-11-20
Until recently, the most common method of RNA detection involved the use of c DNA probes labeled with32 P or35 S.
The digoxigenin (DIG) system developed by Boehringer Mannheim (Mannheim, Germany) for nonradioactive labeling of RNA and DNA probes has been developed so that sensitivity is comparable with radioactivity.

Clovers (Trifolium spp.)
Time of Update: 2020-11-20
Gene technology can assist plant improvement efforts in clovers ( Trifolium spp.), aiming to improve forage quality, yield, and adaptation to biotic and abiotic stresses.
An efficient and reproducible protocol forAgrobacterium -mediated transformation of a range of Trifolium species, using cotyledonary explants and different selectable marker genes, is described.

Induction of Hairy Roots by Agrobacterium Rhizogenes and Growth of Hairy Roots In Vitro
Time of Update: 2020-11-20
Invasion of plant tissues by these free-living soil bacteria usually occurs at a wound site—possibly caused by insect or mechanical damage; nonvirulent strains of the bacteria may invade the plant, but only virulent strains give rise to symptoms of disease.

Assessing the Risk of Undesirable Immunogenicity/ Allergenicity of Plant-Derived Therapeutic Proteins
Time of Update: 2020-11-20
Therapeutic proteins have an intrinsic potential to induce undesirable immune and allergic responses.
Accordingly, regulatory agencies require sponsors to assess the risk of clinical immune and allergic responses that could be associated with the production of therapeutic proteins in transgenic plants.

Metabolic Engineering of Glyoxalase Pathway for Enhancing Stress Tolerance in Plants
Time of Update: 2020-11-20
Gly I detoxifies methylglyoxal (MG), a cytotoxic byproduct of glycolysis, to S-lactoylglutathione (SLG) where it uses one molecule of reduced glutathione.
Subsequently, SLG is converted to lactate by Gly II and one molecule of reduced glutathione is recycled back into the system.

Basic Procedures for Epigenetic Analysis in Plant Cell and Tissue Culture
Time of Update: 2020-11-20
Epigenetics has been shown as an important influence on many research analyses such as cancer in mammals and developmental processes in plants such as flowering, but regarding in vitro culture, techniques to studyDNA methylation or chromatin modifications were mainly limited to identify somaclonal variation of the micropropagated material.
