Gene Transfer System for Plant Seed, Egg and Microbe SONIDEL Limited Resarch cooperation: National Institute of Agrobiological Sciences Plant Genetic Engineering Unit Improvement Research is being Made.
1) Developmentof Concept Current Gene Transfer Method Rice : Agrobacterium Wheat, Barley : Particle Gun Need Tissue Culture (time-consuming !) Silk Worm : Microinjection Need High Skill & A Lot of Labor (tedious !) (2/24)
1) Development of Concept A New Gene Transfer Method National Institute of Agrobiological Sciences Japan – patents pending* Plant : No Need Tissue Culture Animal (silk worm) : No Need Microinjection • Simple • Efficient • Low-cost *”Electroporation method including the use of depressurization / presurization” PCT/JP03/08937 (3/24)
2) Basic Technique and Feature Conventional Electroporation uses Electrical pulse only This new technique uses Vacuum+ Electrical pulse Basic Procedure (e.g. Rice Plant) ① Soak mature seeds in water overnight. ② Soak mature seeds in electroporation buffer ③ Strong Vacuum treatment→DNA permeate tissues ・・・Vacuum Chamber(Fig.1) ④ Electroporation→DNA is transferred into cells ・・・Electroporator(Fig.1), Chamber Having Platinum Electrode(Fig.2) (4/24)
2) Basic Technique and Feature Fig.1: Vacuum Chamber (left)and Electroporator, CUY21EDIT(right) Fig.2: Chamber Having Platinum Electrode, CUY495P10 (5/24)
2) Basic Technique and Feature Effectiveness VE E -- N: Negative control, --: Buffer only, V: Vacuum, E: Electroporation Fig. 4: GUS gene expression reference (Wheat) Fig.3: The level of GUS gene expression by fluorescence assay (Wheat) (6/24)
