Streptomyces species offer many potential advantages as hosts for the expression and secretion of eukaryotic gene products. In this review we discuss the expression and localization signals that have been used to direct heterologous gene expression and the applications of these signals. Finally, we

Direct selection for TRP + transformants of a trp-2 mutant of Coprinus cinereus showed that the gene mutation could be complemented by the heterologous gene from two other basidiomycete species, Schizophyllum commune (trpl) and Phanerochaete ehrysosporium (trpC) but not by an ascomycete gene from As
Chimeric genes containing the coding sequence for bacterial chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT) have been introduced by electroporation into maize protoplasts (Black Mexican Sweet) and transient expression monitored by enzyme assays. Levels of CAT expression were enhanced 12-fold and 20-fold re
