Smith R, Walter M, Hice R, OBrochta D, Atkinson P
Insect Mol Biol
. 2007 Jan;
16(1):61-71.
PMID: 17257209
Sex-specific expression of transgenes in pest insects enables novel genetic control strategies, based either on genetic sexing or the spread of transgenes through the germ-line, to be developed and then...

Michel K, OBrochta D, Atkinson P
Insect Biochem Mol Biol
. 2003 Sep;
33(10):959-70.
PMID: 14505689
Transposase activity that mediates the mobility of class II transposable elements, is most commonly initiated by the assembly of higher order synaptic complexes, called transpososomes. The formation of these complexes,...

Guimond N, Bideshi D, PINKERTON A, Atkinson P, OBrochta D
Mol Genet Genomics
. 2003 Mar;
268(6):779-90.
PMID: 12655404
Transposable elements are being developed as tools for genomics and for the manipulation of insect genotypes for the purposes of biological control. An understanding of their transposition behavior will facilitate...

Michel K, OBrochta D, Atkinson P
Gene
. 2002 Nov;
298(2):141-6.
PMID: 12426102
Donor cleavage and strand transfer are two functions performed by transposases during transposition of class II transposable elements. Within transposable elements, the only active center described, to date, facilitating both...

Allen M, OBrochta D, Atkinson P, LeVesque C
J Med Entomol
. 2001 Oct;
38(5):701-10.
PMID: 11580043
A Hermes-based transposable element transformation system incorporating an enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) marker was used to produce two transgenic lines of Culex quinquefasciatus (Say). The transformation frequency was approximately...

Michel K, Stamenova A, PINKERTON A, Franz G, Robinson A, Gariou-Papalexiou A, et al.
Insect Mol Biol
. 2001 Jun;
10(2):155-62.
PMID: 11422511
We report the use of the Hermes transposable element for germ-line transformation of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata. Hermes was able to genetically transform this insect at an estimated...

Atkinson P, PINKERTON A, OBrochta D
Annu Rev Entomol
. 2000 Dec;
46:317-46.
PMID: 11112172
The past 5 years have witnessed the emergence of techniques that permit the stable genetic transformation of a number of non-drosophilid insect species. These transposable-element-based strategies, together with virus-based techniques...

OBrochta D, Atkinson P, Lehane M
Insect Mol Biol
. 2000 Oct;
9(5):531-8.
PMID: 11029672
The ability of the Hermes transposable element to function as a germ line transformation vector was tested in the stable fly, Stomoxys calcitrans. Plasmid-based transposable element mobility assays indicated moderate...

PINKERTON A, Michel K, OBrochta D, Atkinson P
Insect Mol Biol
. 2000 Feb;
9(1):1-10.
PMID: 10672065
We report here the use of the enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) from the jellyfish, Aequorea victoria, as a genetic marker for the genetic transformation of mosquitoes. The EGFP gene,...
