Abstract

An Intron-GUS reporter gene which contains a modified intron of the castor bean catalase gene within the N-terminal part of the β-glucuronidase (GUS) coding sequence was constructed. When the Intron-GUS reporter gene placed downstream of the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter (35S-Intron-GUS) was introduced into protoplasts of tobacco suspension-cultured cells by electroporation, expression of GUS activity was observed suggesting splicing of the intron occured in tobacco cells
