Abstract:
The aim of this work was twofold: to construct plasmids with a gene encoding a pesticidal protein expressed from an Agrobacterium tumefaciens virulence promoter and to determine, in planta, the sites of Agrobacterium vir-induction. A number of methods were employed to detect in situ vir-induction and, to this end, genes encoding β-glucuronidase (GUS) and bioluminescence (lux) were linked in plasmid constructs to Agrobacterium vir-promoters. In each case, expression of the gene was shown to be induced by the v/r-inducing phenolic compound acetosyringone. An existing plasmid, in which the lacZ g

The mannose-binding lectin from snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis agglutinin; GNA) was produced in Escherichia coli and purified as a functional protein after denturation/renaturation. Incorporation of the four extra C-terminal residues recently revealed from X-ray crystallographic data demonstrated that these residues increase binding to the glycoprotein carboxypeptidase Y. However, no differences in activities were observed in haemagglutination assays when compared to native GNA and toxicity towards rice brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens', BPH) in artificial diet bioassays was unaltered.

Abstract:
The Z. mays Ac/Ds transposable elements have been introduced into a number of heterologous plant species, where they have been employed as genomic mutagens in transposon-tagging strategies. Although successful, many strategies fail to regulate the expression of the controlling Ac element, therefore allowing Ds transposition to occur throughout the plant life cycle. This can generate genetically mosaic organisms whose progeny may contain unique or common Ds transposition events. In an attempt to develop a controlled Ac/Ds transposon-tagging strategy, this thesis examined whether an anther-speci

As a part of its obligate biotrophy lifestyle, Hpa has lost the ability to assimilate inorganic nitrogen and sulfur.

In 2004, unspecific peroxygenases (UPOs) from fungi were first identified and showed to catalyse selective oxygenation reactions, with high turnovers, good stability and a broad reaction scope, providing a valuable alternative to established biocatalytic hydroxylation systems such as cytochrome P450s. At the start of this project, access to UPOs was limited to expression in their native fungi, hence studies were performed looking into heterologous expression of the enzymes from Agrocybe aegerita and Agaricus bisporus, followed by characterisation, and application of the enzymes.

Abstract:
La bio-transformation naturelle des médicaments peut produire des métabolites toxiques; l’identification de ces métabolites est essentielle dans la stratégie de choix de molécules thérapeutiques. En appliquant les technologies de fermentation en bioréacteur des cellules hétérologues (souches d’E. coli recombinantes exprimant une iso-enzyme de cytochrome P450 humain avec la réductase humain), la bioconversion du substrat (principe actif) en ses métabolites de dégradation, a été réalisée à grande échelle (&<br>Doctorat en Sciences<br>info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished

Abstract:
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is widely employed as a host for the production of recombinant proteins. In the work presented here, expression of recombinant reporter proteins has been analysed in yeast, with the aim of determining factors that contribute to the expression performance of recombinant genes. Initially, expression of bacterial aminoglycoside phosphotransferase was analysed in yeast. This heterologous gene showed very low expression levels, resulting from a small decrease in mRNA abundance, plus a large decrease in translation efficiency. This appeared to be due to an unfavour

Abstract:
Self-incompatibility (SI) is an important genetic mechanism that angiosperms utilize to reject "self' pollen. In Papaver rhoeas (poppy) Sl is controlled in an allele-specific manner by a single locus with multiple haplotypes; each haplotype encodes male (PrpS) and female (PrsS) S-determinants. PrsS-PrpS interaction triggers Sl, stimulating cation channel activity and increases in cytosolic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i), triggering a signalling network involving actin cytoskeleton alterations and programmed cell death (PCD). PrpS was recently functionally transferred into self-compatible, highly diverged
