Nanomaterials Enhanced Gene Expression in Yeast Cells
Metal nanomaterials are shown to enhance gene expression for rice 𝛼-galactosidase gene (𝛼-Gal) in yeast cells. Au and Ag nanoparticles and their nanocomposites, silica-Au and silica-Ag, were prepared and characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy and TEM technique. The rice 𝛼-galactosidase gene was cloned...
