ID Plasmid Purpose
247490pluc HYG 5’ CYSTM αPlasmid pluc 5′ CYSTM α contains a 79-nt Arabidopsis 5′ UTR fragment upstream of Firefly luciferase, functioning as a potent translational enhancer in plant assays.
247491pluc HYG 5’ TMV ΩPlasmid pluc 5′ TMV Ω contains the 67-nt TMV Ω translational enhancer placed upstream of Firefly luciferase, optimized for boosting expression in plant transient and stable expression assays.
247492pluc HYG 5’ CYSTM1Plasmid pluc 5′ CYSTM1 contains the full 110-nt Arabidopsis CYSTM1 5′ UTR upstream of Firefly luciferase, serving as a translational enhancer in plant transient assays
247493p35S:RUBY 5’ CYSTM αPlasmid p35S:RUBY 5’ CYSTM α contains a 79-nt 5′ CYSTM α sequence placed directly upstream of the CYP76AD1 coding region (first gene in the RUBY cassette), intended to boost translation efficiency
247568pluc HYGPlasmid containing a firefly luciferase reporter gene and hygromycin resistance cassette for selection in plant transformation experiments.
