  • Title: The UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:dolichol phosphate-N-acetylglucosamine-phosphotransferase gene as a new selection marker for potato transformation.
    Author: Kim HS, Kim MS, Hwang KA, Park SW, Jeon JH.
    Journal: Biosci Biotechnol Biochem; 2013; 77(7):1589-92. PubMed ID: 23832343.
    Abstract:
    Here we describe the generation of potato plants that constitutively overexpressed, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:dolichol phosphate-N-acetylglucosamine-phosphotransferase (GPT). Such transgenic plants can be formed in a medium with tunicamycin at 9.8 ± 0.28% efficiency, similar to the 9.4 ± 1.10 for the bialaphos resistance gene (Bar) gene. This study indicated that GPT transformation was very stable with high reproducibility, and that growth and tuber production in the GPT-transformed plants were stronger than in the wild-type plants.
