Although this simple concept has been stated in international and regional guidance for assessing the risk of newly expressed proteins in GM crops, its full implementation by regulatory authorities has been lacking. As a result, safety studies are often repeated at a significant expenditure of resources by developers, study results are repeatedly reviewed by regulators, and animals are sacrificed needlessly to complete redundant animal toxicity studies. This situation is illustrated using the example of the selectable marker phosphomannose isomerase (PMI) for which familiarity has been established. Reviewed is the history of safe use for PMI and predictable results of newly conducted safety studies including bioinformatic comparisons, resistance to digestion, and acute toxicity that were repeated to gain regulatory reapproval of PMI expressed from constructs in recently developed GM maize. As expected, the results of these newly repeated hazard-identification and characterization studies for PMI indicate negligible risk. PMI expressed in recently developed GM crops provides an opportunity to use the concept of familiarity by regulatory authorities to reduce risk-disproportionate regulation of these new events and lessen the resulting waste of both developer and regulator resources, as well as eliminate unnecessary animal testing. This would also correctly imply that familiar proteins like PMI have negligible risk. Together, such modernization of regulations would benefit society through enabling broader and faster access to needed technologies.","PeriodicalId":23258,"journal":{"name":"Transgenic Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10602950/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9815314","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally extensive migration between rural areas in Mexico and the USA and customs of seed exchange between farmers may also play an unintentional role in the establishment of transgenic seed. A comprehensive study of all Mexican maize landraces throughout the country is not feasible, however this report presents data based on analysis of 3204 maize accessions obtained from the central region of Mexico (where permits have never been authorized for cultivation of transgenic maize) and the northern region (where for a short period authorization for experimental plots was granted). The results of the study confirm that transgenes are present in all the geographical areas sampled and were more common in germplasm obtained in the northern region. However, there was no evidence that regions where field trials had been authorized showed higher levels of transgene presence or that the morphology of seed lots harboring transgenic material was significantly modified in favor of expected transgenic phenotypes.","PeriodicalId":23258,"journal":{"name":"Transgenic Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9693519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although GalT from several species has been studied, little information about GalT from rice is available. I therefore characterized three GalT candidate genes on different chromosomes in Oryza sativa. Seeds of rice lines that had T-DNA insertions in regions corresponding to individual putative GalT genes were obtained from a Rice Functional Genomic Express Database and plants grown until maturity. Homozygotes were selected from the next generation by genotyping PCR, and used for callus induction. Callus extracts of two independent T-DNA mutant rice which have T-DNA insertions at the same gene on chromosome 6 but in different exons showed highly reduced band intensity on a western blots using an anti-Lewis a antibody. Cell extracts and cultured media from suspension culture of the one of these mutant rice were further analysed by N-glycan profiling using matrix-associated laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF). Identified N-glycan species containing β1,3-galactose from both cell extracts and cultured media of knock-out mutant were less than 0.5% of total N-glycans while that of WT cells were 9.8% and 49.1%, respectively.

This study aimed to evaluate the applicability of the CsUBL5 promoter in transgene expression and genome editing in cucumber. The CsUBL5 promoter was cloned and analyzed to identify cis-elements that respond to abiotic signals, hormones, signal molecules, and nutrient treatments. 5' deletion constructs of the promoter were tested for their ability to drive GUS reporter expression in cucumber cotyledons, Arabidopsis seedlings, and tobacco leaves, and their response to various treatments including SA, light, drought, IAA, and GA was determined. The results showed that the CsUBL5 promoter effectively drove transgene expression in these plants, and their expressions under treatments were consistent with the predicted cis-elements, with some exceptions. Furthermore, the pCsUBL5-749 deletion construct can improve genome editing efficiency in cucumber when driving Cas9 expression. The editing efficiency of two sgRNAs targeting the ATG6 gene in cucumber was up to 4.6-fold higher using pCsUBL5-749 compared to a rice UBI promoter, although the effects of changing promoter on the editing efficiency is sgRNA specific. These findings highlight the potential utility of the CsUBL5 promoter for improving cucumber varieties through genetic engineering and genome editing. It also demonstrates the importance of modulating Cas9 expression to increase genome editing efficiency in cucumbers.","PeriodicalId":23258,"journal":{"name":"Transgenic Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9668750","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The use of CRISPR/Cas9-mediated multiple guide RNA-targeted mutagenesis allowed tri- or tetra-allelic mutant potato lines to be generated. Multiple nucleotide substitutions and indels within and around the three target sites caused a frameshift mutation that led to a premature stop codon, resulting in the production of gbss-knockout plants. Mutation frequencies and analysis of mutation patterns suggested that the stably transformed Cas9/multiple guide RNA expression constructs used in this study can induce targeted mutations efficiently in the potato genome.

Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) and Beet severe curly top virus (BSCTV) are two widespread viruses in sugar beet that cause severe damage to its performance. Previously, we have successfully produced resistance to BNYVV based on RNA silencing in sugar beet by introducing constructs carrying the viral coat-protein-encoding DNA sequence, CP21, in sense and anti-sense orientations. Yet, the RNA silencing-mediated resistance to a specific virus could be affected by other ones as a part of synergistic interactions. In this study, we assayed the specificity of the induced resistance against BNYVV in two sets of transgenic events, S3 and S6 carrying 5'-UTR with or without CP21-coding sequences, respectively. These events were subjected to viral challenges with either BNYVV, an Iranian isolate of BSCTV (BSCTV-Ir) or both. All the plants inoculated with just BSCTV-Ir displayed curly-leaf symptoms. However, partial resistance was evident in S3 events as shown by mild symptoms and reduced PCR amplification of the BSCTV-Ir coat protein encoding sequence. Based on the presented data, resistance to BNYVV was stable in almost all the transgenic plants co-infected with BSCTV-Ir, except for one event, S3-229. In general, it seems that the co-infection does not affect the resistance to BNYVV in transgenic plants. These findings demonstrated that the introduced RNA silencing-mediated resistance against BNYVV in transgenic sugar beets is specific and is not suppressed after co-infection with a heterologous virus.","PeriodicalId":23258,"journal":{"name":"Transgenic Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10503044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Vertebrates are n-3 PUFA-auxotrophic; hence, dietary intake of n-3 PUFAs is required for their normal physiology and development. Although fish meal and oil have been utilized as primary sources of n-3 PUFAs by humans and aquaculture, these traditional n-3 PUFA sources are expected to be exhausted because of the increasing consumption requirements of humans. Hence, it is necessary to establish alternative n-3 PUFA sources to reduce the gap between the supply and demand of n-3 PUFAs. Here, we investigated whether insects, which are considered as a novel source of essential nutrients, could store n-3 PUFAs by the forced expression of n-3 PUFA biosynthetic enzymes. We utilized Drosophila as an insect model to generate transgenic strains expressing Caenorhabditis elegans PUFA biosynthetic enzymes and examined their effects on the proportion of fatty acids. The ubiquitous expression of methyl-end desaturase FAT-1 prominently enhanced the proportions of α-linolenic acid, indicating that FAT-1 is useful for metabolic engineering to fortify α-linolenic acid in insect. Furthermore, the ubiquitous expression of nematode front-end desaturases (FAT-3 and FAT-4), PUFA elongase (ELO-1), and FAT-1 led to EPA bioproduction. Hence, nematode PUFA biosynthetic genes may serve as powerful genetic tools for enhancing the proportion of EPA in insects.

The AMPs in the seeds kept their antibacterial properties even after the seed had been boiled in hot water and could significantly inhibit the growth of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, and AMPs in the leaves could effectively inhibit Xanthomonas oryzae pv.
