Transgenic plants remove more selenium from polluted soil than wild plants, new tests show

In the first field trial of plants genetically tweaked to absorb more contaminants, researchers found that the transgenic plants handily beat out their wild-type counterparts. The results raised hopes that the plants might become a viable alternative for cleaning up polluted soil. The new research findings, published Feb. 1 in the journal Environmental Science and Technology, show that th...

Transgenic goat's milk offers hope for tackling children's intestinal disease

It's hard to improve on milk, but animal scientists at the University of California, Davis, have found that milk produced by transgenic goats, which carry the gene for an antibacterial enzyme found in human breast milk, altered the intestinal bacteria in young goats and pigs that were fed the milk. The researchers hope these findings will one day lead to milk that protects infants and chi...

Single microRNA causes cancer in transgenic mouse

Scientists in the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center say that just one, single, malfunctioning microRNA is sufficient to cause cancer in mice. The discovery offers new insight into the development of some forms of leukemia and lymphoma and at the same time underscores the powerful role that these tiny snippets of non-coding RNA play in cell signaling pathways active in carcinogenes...

Origen publishes in Nature a robust and versatile method for creating transgenic chickens

Origen Therapeutics announced today that it has succeeded in developing a robust and versatile technology for genetically modifying chickens that, for the first time, puts avian transgenics on a par with transgenic mice. The company made the announcement in conjunction with the publication of an article this week by Origen scientists and a collaborator from the University of California, Davis on...

Transgenic Animals

The term transgenic animals describes animals whose chromosomes contain stably integrated copies of genes or gene constructs derived from other species or not normally found in the host animal. For this reason, mice, rats or other small mammals are used to introduce foreign DNA...

Goat’s Milk One of the First Transgenic Food That Benefits Human

According to the researchers at the University of California, Davis it is found that a gene incorporated in to the goat, produces milk that has anti bacterial// enzyme found in human breast milk. This milk altered the intestinal flora of the pigs and goats which were fed with the milk. Hence the researchers are anticipating that in the future they would be able to create a transgenic go...

New Transgenic Mushrooms Raise Hope for Mass Production of Human Drugs

Penn State and Agariger, Inc. have patented the technology of making new transgenic mushrooms, which have increased hope of using mushrooms for the mass production of commercially valuable proteins or useful human drugs. The technology was introduced by a team of researchers including Charles Peter Romaine and Xi Chen at Penn State. As part of the study, scientists de...
