Hybrid Transcriptional Regulators for the Screening of Target DNA Motifs in Organohalide-Respiring Bacteria

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Mathilde Stéphanie Willemin, Marie Vingerhoets

The bioremediation of persistent organohalide molecules under anoxic conditions mostly relies on the bacterial process called organohalide respiration (OHR). Organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) are phylogenetically diverse anaerobic bacteria that share ...

MAR-mediated integration of plasmid vectors for in vivo gene transfer and regulation

Andrzej Kulik, Nicolas Mermod, Damien Saugy

Background: The in vivo transfer of naked plasmid DNA into organs such as muscles is commonly used to assess the expression of prophylactic or therapeutic genes in animal disease models. Results: In this study, we devised vectors allowing a tight regulatio ...

Analysis of the Pigment Cell Specific Gene MART-1/Melan-A/mlana : Expressional Regulation and Function

Iraz Toprak Aydin

Pigmentation is a complex process that provides many diverse benefits for the organism. Pigment production takes place in the pigment cell lineage in dedicated organelles called melanosomes. Several proteins are specifically recruited to melanosomes for th ...

Selecting control genes for RT-QPCR using public microarray data

Darlene Goldstein, Mauro Delorenzi, Vlad Popovici

Background: Gene expression analysis has emerged as a major biological research area, with real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-QPCR) being one of the most accurate and widely used techniques for expression profiling of selected genes. In o ...

Establishment of recombinant mammalian cell lines : new approaches

Madiha Derouazi

Recombinant proteins are gaining in importance for therapeutic applications. The proteins are expressed in stable cell lines, within which recombinant DNA has incorporated into the host cells genome. Identification and isolation of extremely high producers ...

Long-term lentiviral-mediated expression of ciliary neurotrophic factor in the striatum of Huntington's disease transgenic mice

Patrick Aebischer, Nicole Déglon, Jean-Charles Bensadoun, Diana Zala

Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) has been shown to prevent behavioral deficits and striatal degeneration in neurotoxic models of Huntington's disease (HD), but its effect in a genetic model has not been evaluated. Lentiviral vectors expressing the human ...

A self-immunomodulating myoblast cell line for erythropoietin delivery

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider

The transplantation of genetically engineered cells faces limitations associated with host immunity. Allogeneic cells are typically rejected in response to inherent histo-incompatibility. Even autologous cells can induce an immune response toward antigenic ...
