Open AccessFSTVAL: a new web tool to validate bulk flanking sequence tags
Information about a transgene locus is one of the major concerns in transgenic research because expression of the transgene or a gene interrupted by the integration event could be affected. Thus, the flanking ...

Analysis of representative organ-specific genes and promoters of rice using a 3’ ORF-oriented long oligomer microarray
Organ-specific transcription factors and promoters are likely to be useful for testing the effects of changes in expression of regulatory genes related to agronomical traits in rice. Here, we analyze the trans...

Open AccessGenome-wide identification of grain filling genes regulated by the OsSMF1 transcription factor in rice
Spatial- and temporal-specific expression patterns are primarily regulated at the transcriptional level by gene promoters. Therefore, it is important to identify the binding motifs of transcription factors to ...

Open AccessDevelopment of Tos17 insertion mutants from Korean cultivars ‘Ilmibyeo’ and ‘Baeg**ju1ho’ (Oryza sativa L.)
Rice is one of the most important crops globally and a model plant for genomic studies of monocots. With the release of complete genome sequences, the next challenge is to develop various resources based on fu...

Open AccessRice protein-binding microarrays: a tool to detect cis-acting elements near promoter regions in rice
The present study showed that a rice (Oryza sativa)-specific protein-binding microarray (RPBM) can be applied to analyze DNA-binding motifs with a TF where binding is evaluated in extended natural promoter region...

Heterologous production of multiple triterpenes, including taraxasterol, in transgenic tobacco overexpressing Taraxacum coreanum oxidosqualene cyclase (TcOSC1)
Pentacyclic triterpenes are isoprene-derived secondary metabolites that are synthesized by the cyclization of 2,3-oxidosqualene. Two pentacyclic triterpenoids, taraxasterol and ψ-taraxasterol, are particularly...
