摘要
Isozymes of barley alpha-amylase were matched to cDNAs that encode them using transient expression in oat aleurone layers. Four cDNAs, including two that are previously unpublished, were inserted into oat aleurone cells by microparticle bombardment. The cDNAs were under the control of the Act1 promoter of rice. Expression levels were sufficient for in-gel detection of enzyme activity following isoelectric focusing of aleurone homogenates. The system has also proved useful in characterizing a hybrid beta-glucanase gene.
