[ Method] A section of multiple cloning sites among NIb/CP genes in pCIYVV genome and deoxyribonucleotide polylinker of cleavage recognition sequence containing viral protease Nla were cloned with infectivity full-length cDNA of clover yellow vein virus (CIYVV), and pCIYVV/CP/W vector was constructed, GFP gene was inserted into pCIyVV/CP/W to construct the pCIYVV/CP/W/GFP vector. The transcription situation of recombinant virus clone was detected by RT-PCR, and targeted gene products expressed by recombinant virus clone were detected with western blot (WB). [Result] The broad bean seedling inoculated with pCIYVV/CP/W/GFP expressed the same symptom as wild type CIYVV, morbidity was of 100%, the result showed that recombinant virus clone pCIYVV/CP/W/GFP didn't suppress, insertion of foreign gene didn't destroy the open reading frame of pCIYVV/CP/W. Foreign gene can keep living in F, progeny virus genorne steadily, recombinant virus clone pCIYVV/CP/W/GFP could steadily express GFP in progeny virus at least.[ Conclusion] The useful plant virus vector was provided for useful protein expressing.展开更多

MACC/C95)was established. Using electroporation, the alga was transformed with a plasmid containing the phytase gene under the control of CaMV35S promoter and the neomycin phosphotransferase ( npt ) as a selectable marker gene. The integration of the phytase gene into the Chlorella genome was revealed by PCR and Southern blotting analysis. RT-PCR analysis revealed the expression of phytase gene at the transcript level. The enhanced activity of phytase enzyme in the transformants confirmed the integration and successful expression of phytase gene. The introduced phytase gene and its protein expression were stably maintained for at least 30 generations in media devoid of selectable antibiotics G418. This is an important step toward the production of useful foreign proteins in Chlorella sp. MACC/C95.展开更多
