Authors: Z. Liu, Q.H. Luo, J.M. Wang, X.F. Li and Y. Yang
In the present study, we isolated an Arabidopsis promoter, UGT71C5, and analyzed its role in the regulation of the light response mechanism. We constructed a fusion vector pBI121-pU-GUS by integrating the UGT71C5 promoter upstream of the GUS reporter gene in pBI121, and then transferred this vector into Arabidopsis plants. The GUS activity of the transgen.. Read More»

SNPs in the 5'-regulatory region of the tyrosinase gene do not affect plumage color in ducks (Anas platyrhynchos)
Authors: N.N. Zhang, J.W. Hu, H.H. Liu, H.Y. Xu, H. He and L. Li
Tyrosinase, encoded by the TYR gene, is the rate-limiting enzyme in the production of melanin pigment. In this study, plumage color separation was observed in Cherry Valley duck line D and F1 and F2 hybrid generations of Liancheng white ducks. Gene sequencing and bioinformatic analysis were applied to the 5'-regulatory region of TYR, to explore the connec.. Read More»
