Synthetic feed-forward loop circuit boosts transgene expression in sugarcane

Plant Cell Rep. 2025 Jul 8;44(8):171. doi: 10.1007/s00299-025-03561-3.

Abstract

A new GAL4-based feed-forward loop circuit enhances β-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene expression in leaves and stems of stably transformed sugarcane plants.

Keywords: Biobased products; Feed-forward loop circuit; GAL4 system; Global sustainability; Sugarcane.
