고등식물 형질전환용 유전자 운반체 pKCHI의 개발

Development of a Plant Transformation Vector, pKCHI

We have developed a plasmid vector, pKCH1, for the purpose of higher plant transformation. It contains the promoter region of cauliflower mosaic virus 35S transcript (P35s) and the terminator region of nopaline synthase gene (Tnos) with unique cloning sites, Bam HI and Xba I, between them. After inserting a foreing gene at the cloning sites, P35s-foreign gene-Tnos cassette can be recovered by using a restriction enzyme Hind III.
