Top 6 Plant Promoters for Genes | Biotechnology

The following points highlight the top six plant promoters for genes. The promoters are: 1. Core Promoter 2. Light Responsive Promoters 3. Stress Responsive Promoters 4. Plant Hormonal Responsive Promoters 5. Sucrose Responsive Promoters 6. Low-Oxygen Responsive Promoters. 1. Core Promoter: Core promoter elements are defined as minimal promoter that contain TATA box. These are indispensable for initiation of transcription [...]

Rapid Gene Regulation by Auxin | Biotechnology

In this article we will discuss about the rapid gene regulation by auxin. Naturally occurring hormone indole acetic acid (IAA) is the fastest known hormonal action among plant in terms of rapid cell elongation within a short span of 10-20 minutes. Auxin exhibits two types of response. One is short-term effect with 20 min leads to cell elonga­tion. Second is [...]

Processing of Pre-snoRNA | Biotechnology

In this article we will discuss about the processing of pre-snoRNA into mature RNA. Small nucleolar RNAs are families of small RNAs involved in RNA metabolite and gene expression in eukaryotes. Their major function is in processing and modification of ribosomal RNA (rRNA). In plants, the 5.8S 18S and 28S rRNA of the cytoplasm ribosomes are produced by processing a [...]
