Methods for providing transgenic plants and parts hereof that, relative to the wild type state, is modified in a complex cell wall polysaccharide structure including pectins and hemicelluloses, the modification being in the overall glycosidic linkage pattern or the monosaccharide profile, comprising transforming a plant cell with a nucleotide sequence that causes an altered production of a complex cell wall polysaccharide-modifying enzyme such as endo-rhamnogalacturonan hydrolase, an endo-rhamnogalacturonan lyase, an endo-galactanase, an endo-arabinanase, an arabinofuranosidase, a galactosidase such as a beta-galactosidase, a xylosidase and an exo-galacturosidase. The modification can occur in vivo or post harvest, in which latter case the modifying enzyme is separated in the growing plant from its substrate, e.g. by targeting the enzyme to the Golgi, the endoplasmic reticulum or a vacuole, or is in a form that is inactive in the plant. After harvest the enzyme is brought into contact with its substrate or it is activated to provide the desired post harvest modification of the cell wall polysaccharide. The transgenic plant materials have improved functionalities and are useful in food and feed manufacturing and as pharmaceutically or medically active substances.

The invention relates to a novel quinoline dye capable of being used as a Golgi apparatus organelle probe. In comparison of dye with a commercial Golgi apparatus organelle dye in term of imaging results in human osteosarcoma cells U2OS, the result proves that the dye disclosed by the invention can be used for targeted localization of the Golgi apparatus organelle. The dye has a great potential effect in the field of marking of the Golgi apparatus organelle.

The invention discloses a kit for detecting mycobacterium tuberculosis infection by using peripheral blood. The kit provided by the invention comprises the following substances: (1) a mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv3615c mixed polypeptide library which consists of all or a part of 19 polypeptides consisting of amino acid sequences shown as sequences 1 to 19 in a sequence table, (2) an anti-CD3 antibody labeled with a fluorescent dye A, (3) an anti-gamma-interferon antibody labeled with a fluorescent dye B, and (4) a Golgi apparatus blocking agent, wherein the fluorescent dye A and the fluorescent dye B emit different fluorescent colors. A novel method which can be used for detecting mycobacterium tuberculosis infection is provided. As proved by experiments, antigenic stimulation can be performed by directly using the peripheral blood without separating single karyocytes of the peripheral blood. As indicated by experimental data, the kit has high sensitivity and high specificity when being used for detecting mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. Moreover, the kit is easy and convenient to operate and low in cost, and has high clinical application value.

A method of creating a model of a biological cell. The method features providing a circular base with indentations disposed therein, forming a cell membrane and at least one organelle from a mixture formed by mixing all-purpose flour and water. Organelles may include a nuclear membrane, a cell wall, mitochondria, a smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a rough ER, a vacuole, a golgi apparatus, a nucleolus, a nucleoplasm, chromatin, a ribosome, DNA, RNA, transcription machinery, a histone, and a microtubule. The outside edge of the base is lined with the cell membrane. The organelles are inserted into indentations or atop the base. The organelles can be secured with glue.

The disclosure provides methods for preparation of carbohydrate replacement therapies (CRT) that include nanocarriers of carbohydrates and glycolipids for pharmaceutical delivery to cell interior, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi for treating CDG type I and CDG type II diseases as well as other metabolic disorders.

This invention provides improved cell lines for manufacture of protein-based pharmaceutical agents, considerably reducing the cost of commercial production. The cell lines are obtained by fusing cells from one or more parental cell populations. The hybrid cells are then selected for one or more characteristics that support protein production on a non-specific basis, such as the level of endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and/or other desired phenotypic features, compared with other hybrids or parental cells in the starting mixture. A gene encoding a therapeutic protein is transfected into the cells before or after one or more cycles of fusion and selection. Depending on the protein product being expressed, cell lines may be obtained that produce as much as eight grams or more of protein per liter of culture fluid.

The invention relates to orange-light carbon quantum dots, which are carbon quantum dot solid powder obtained by dissolving neutral red as a carbon source and cysteine as a targeting source in water or an ethanol water solution, performing a solvothermal reaction for 6-14 hours at 120-160 DEG C under a closed condition, and purifying a reaction product. The carbon quantum dots prepared by the invention not only have good water solubility, but also have excellent fluorescence characteristics, and can emit orange light. When the carbon quantum dots are applied to cell imaging, target imaging of a Golgi body can be realized. The carbon quantum dots have an application prospect in the field of Golgi body target imaging.
