Why hazardous substances may appear in genetically engineered food
The gene to be inserted is often combined with so a called promoter gene (from certain viruses). A promoter gene has the function of enhancing the activity of the genes associated with it. But the promoter gene ...

Genetically Engineered Soy crops less profitable than conventionally bred varietes.
GE plants is not regulated according to need. To ensure that the inserted gene will be effective, a promoter gene is linked to it (for details, see "How are genes engineered?"). This makes the inserted gene stimulate the production of the desired ...

Terminator Trees
MADS box genes, the poplar promoter gene PTD. The PTD promoter was combined with the diphtheria-toxin gene, DTA, to produce sterile polar without the detrimental effects ... controlling flowering in the birch tree. When a flower specific birch promoter gene BpMADS1 was used to drive the barnase gene, floral cell ablation prevented flowering but there were marked side ...

Maize containing a gene from the cauliflower mozaic virus was detected in routine monitoring by DO-IT, the Dutch ... of Apache brand tortilla chips made from yellow maize. The virus is used as a promoter gene in maize engineered to be resistant to herbicides. George Carroll, managing director of De Rit ...

Phenomena responsible for disturbances
Explanation: This means that the position where the gene is inserted, influences its effects (its “expression”). Ÿ Promoter ... promoter in the inserted complex becomes blocked. Without the promoter, the inserted gene remains silent.  Ÿ Inter-loci interactions - including "co-suppression where a transgene can modify the action of an endogenous gene ...

Finally, the engineers have to make sure the gene actually gets used: The organism that received the foreign gene may ignore the gene. Therefore, a “promoter” is included with the gene to make sure the gene becomes active. They ...
