Research tool gene expression

The potential use of gene therapy has since expanded as conditions such as cancer, atherosclerosis, transplant operations, and infectious disease are now viewed as suitable targets for intervention. For example, HTV and parasitic infection (2-5). Furthermore, the ability to transfer genes into cell in vitro is also an important tool in the research of gene expression. 

High pressure has proven to be a useful tool in biochemistry for the study of a number of cell-mediated processes, the most important being the effect on gene expression. The pressure effect on the stability of enzymes and biopolymers is a topic of general interest that may generate a number of possible applications in the area of food science. Biochemistry and biophysics continue to attract many new research groups, especially in the field of protein chemistry. Pressure may be a tool to obtain unique textures and provide biochemical products with new properties.
