1.
To determine whether the constructed plasmid
was efficientworks
well, we first transfected the plasmid with liposomes into
cultured SH-SY5Y cells for 24 hours
and
analyzed
the expression of corresponding
proteins byused
western blot analysis
using anwith
antibody against EGFP
to check the expression of corresponding proteins.
2.
We screened aA
pool of
Arabidospis
Arabidopsis
lines transformed with the activation vector
was screened
for short hypocotyl mutants under dim far-red light.
Consequently we
isolated,
and
three mutant lines designated
chibi1-3
(chi)
were
isolated.

fixed horizontally in a stereotaxic instrument (Narishige,
Japan). The skull was exposed,
and
a small burr hole was made
at the
appropriate
coordinates
drilled
to enable vertical penetration by
the stimulating and recording
electrodes. All electrodes were zeroed
on the

and all coordinates were calculated from
this point.
