<p>'''Technological Advances from Genetically Engineered Plants'''<br />
<br><br />
Since the initial development of Agrobacterium transformation systems, many plant species including tobacco, tomato, potato, rice, soybean, mint, melon, cucumber, pine and poplar trees, and many others have been transformed using this ingenious bacterial vector. Important traits have been engineered into plants including pest and weed resistance, increased nutritional value, environmental stress tolerance, the production of pharmaceutical and industrial proteins, and the production of bioactive secondary chemical compounds. Our ability to genetically engineer plants has revolutionized agriculture by increasing crop yields while drastically decreasing the application of herbicides and pesticides. This technology is necessary to allow farmers to produce sufficient food for a growing global population. Furthermore, plants are currently being engineered to produce fuel and chemical alternatives to petroleum based products. Because plants are net consumers of atmospheric carbon dioxide, they are currently being seen as a means to sequester greenhouse gases while at the same time replacing petroleum and coal as chemical feedstocks. <br />
<br><br />
<br>However, there has been recent controversy concerning the use of transgenic plants and organisms. These issues include economical, environmental, ethical, and health concerns. We have developed the following graphics outlining and discussing a short history as well as some issues concerning GMOs. Additionally, the following link will direct to a pdf of the original powerpoint the graphics were taken from.</p><br />

35S-GFP Composite Results - With careful inspection of my gels, I believed Lane 3 was a good candidate. I was looking for 2 bands, the composite at about 1.8kb and the pSB1C3 backbone at 2kb.

<p>'''Technological Advances from Genetically Engineered Plants'''<br />
<br><br />
Since the initial development of Agrobacterium transformation systems, many plant species including tobacco, tomato, potato, rice, soybean, mint, melon, cucumber, pine and poplar trees, and many others have been transformed using this ingenious bacterial vector. Important traits have been engineered into plants including pest and weed resistance, increased nutritional value, environmental stress tolerance, the production of pharmaceutical and industrial proteins, and the production of bioactive secondary chemical compounds. Our ability to genetically engineer plants has revolutionized agriculture by increasing crop yields while drastically decreasing the application of herbicides and pesticides. This technology is necessary to allow farmers to produce sufficient food for a growing global population. Furthermore, plants are currently being engineered to produce fuel and chemical alternatives to petroleum based products. Because plants are net consumers of atmospheric carbon dioxide, they are currently being seen as a means to sequester greenhouse gases while at the same time replacing petroleum and coal as chemical feedstocks. <br />
<br><br />
<br>However, there has been recent controversy concerning the use of transgenic plants and organisms. These issues include economical, environmental, ethical, and health concerns. We have developed the following powerpoint outlining and discussing a short history, use, and issues concerning GMOs. This powerpoint has been made available to help educate and for use by other participants.</p><br />

35S-GFP Composite Results - With careful inspection of my gels, I believed Lane 3 was a good candidate. I was looking for 2 bands, the composite at about 1.8kb and the pSB1C3 backbone at 2kb. Although, the image is not clean, I believed I saw a second band emerging in between the molecular markers which were 2kb and 1.6kb, making that emerging band at 1.8kb. Sequencing would prove me right<br />

The ccdB gene is a known topoisomerase II poison and will kill all available cell lines with the exception of DB3.1 cell lines available from Invitrogen. The gene can be used as a selectable marker by ligating it with the plasmid and structure of interest and transforming it into a cell line susceptible to the toxic effects of ccdB. Colonies that grow on plates should contain the plasmid and gene of interest as ccdB inserted into the plasmid will kill cell cultures.<br />

The ccdB gene is a known topoisomerase II poison and will kill all available cell lines with the exception of DB3.1 cell lines available from Invitrogen. The gene can be used as a selectable marker by ligating it with the plasmid and structure of interest and transforming it into a cell line susceptible to the toxic effects of ccdB. Colonies that grow on plates should contain the plasmid and gene of interest as ccdB inserted into the plasmid will kill cell cultures.<br />

The goal for our project is twofold. For our project, we will be working with and examining inducible promoters and the timing in which the promoters are expressed.<br />
<br />
We will also be creating several plant parts to be made available for other iGEM teams to use in future competitions. These parts include a plant specific plasmid, reporter genes with their own Kozak sequences, plant promoters, and plant terminators.''<br />
