A novel binary vector to get marker-free transgenic plant / 生物工程学报

A novel practical binary vector to get marker-free transgenic plant was constructed. The estrogen-inducible Cre/loxP DNA recombination system was adopted in this system. All non-target genes located between two identical orientation loxP sites could be excised from the transgenic genome by the Cre expression. In order to analyze this system, the target gene, GUS expression box (CaMV35s: :GUS), was inserted in the MCS outside the region franked by two loxP sites. Then it was introduced into the tobaccos. Results showed that the high-efficiency DNA recombination had take place and the target gene was working order after DNA excitation.

Isolation and Identification on a Thermoacidophilic Fungus of High-producing Cellulase and the Characteristics of its Enzyme / 微生物学通报

A novel Aspergillus terreus strain M11 was isolated from the compost containing cellulose and identified. The isolate grow best at 45℃ and pH2.0. It was found that the activity of the CMCase was up to 3.680IU/mL with high heat stability and the optimal reaction conditions of the CMCase were at 60℃ and pH2.0.
