Expression overexpression

Overexpression of apoaequorin (Inouye et al., 1989, 1991). To produce a large quantity of apoaequorin, an apoaequorin expression plasmid piP-HE containing the signal peptide coding sequence of the outer membrane protein A (ompA) of E. coli (Fig. 4.1.12) was constructed and expressed in E. coli. The expressed apoaequorin was secreted into the periplasmic space of bacterial cells and culture medium. The cleaving of ompA took place during secretion thus the... 

To study the effect of an increased gene dosage of GR, Reichardt et al. (2000) and van den Brandt et al. (2007) generated rodent models of GR overexpression. These approaches confirmed that GR controls neuronal and immune functions in a dosage-dependent manner. These results highlight the importance of tight control of GR expression in target tissues and may explain... 

The first clue to a role for Wnt/(3-catenin-dependent signaling in vertebrate development came from overexpression studies in the classical embryonic system, the frog Xenopus loevis. When Wntl is ectopically expressed in cells that would normally contribute to the ventral embryo (i.e. the future belly), they instead adopt...
