Synthesis and secretion of α‐amylase by rice callus: Evidence for differential gene expression

Abstract: Rice seed callus expressed and secreted a-amylase at high levels. Twenty percent of the protein secreted by the callus was a-amylase. The callus secreted about 840pg a-amylase with 10.9 x lo3 units of activity per gram dry weight callus per day. The a-amylase from callus exhibited a more complex isoform pattern than the germinating seed a-amylase. In addition, the level of mRNA expression by the five a-amylase gene groups was markedly different between callus and the germinating seed. The rice callus culture h… Show more

“…In wild-type rice cell cultures, it has been demonstrated that an inducible rice R-amylase (RAmy3D) promoter directs high level expression of R-amylase proteins under conditions of low sugar concentrations (15)(16)(17)(18). In addition, a rice R-amylase signal peptide directs secretion of R-amylase into the culture medium.…”

“…Recombinant human R 1 -antitrypsin (rAAT) was produced by a genetically engineered rice cell, and the expression system used in this work was described in detail in ref 3. An R-amylase promoter, which is induced by sugar depletion, was used in this expression system (9)(10)(11).…”
