Method for enhancing plant transformation efficiency by using agrobacterium carrying virg mutant gene and nahg gene
Patent published on the 2026-06-11 in US under Ref US20260159848 by NULLA BIO INC [KR] (Jeon Eun-young [kr], Jeong Jin-hee [kr])
Abstract: [0000] A method for enhancing transformation efficiency of a plant includes transforming a plant cell with a bacteria of the genus Agrobacterium carrying virGgene and NahG (salicylate hydroxylase) gene. The method is based on the discovery that introducing both a constitutively active virG mutant gene (virG) and a salicylic acid-degrading gene (NahG) into an Agrobacterium strain synergistically increases its ability to deliver a target gene into a plant cell. The provided strains can be used to [...]
Our summary: The method enhances plant transformation efficiency by using Agrobacterium with a virG mutant and NahG gene. This approach improves gene delivery into plant cells. It is applicable to various plant species, including those that are typically difficult to transform.

Re-evaluating the site-directed nuclease classification as a regulatory trigger for genome-edited plant products
Published on 2026-03-05 by Osman Mewett, John McMurdy, Lieselot Bertho, Ana Atanassova, Naomi Stevens, Scott Huber, Maria Fedorova, Kevin Diehl, Kevin Tianmeng Zhao @NATURE
Abstract: Nature Biotechnology, Published online: 05 March 2026; doi:10.1038/s41587-026-03028-0Site-directed nuclease (SDN) classification into SDN-1, SDN-2 and SDN-3 outcomes is used for regulating genome-edited plant products in some countries. This reductive categorization system fails to cover the breadth of genome editing technologies developed over the past decade and their rapidly approaching commercial use. Here, we argue that, in the context of plant breeding, regulations should focus on the char[...]
Our summary: The current classification of site-directed nucleases (SDNs) is inadequate for regulating genome-edited plants. A shift towards an outcome-focused regulatory approach is proposed to enhance oversight and efficiency. This change aims to address challenges in crop improvement related to climate change and pest resistance.

Abstract: Genome editing (GE) has transformed medicine by allowing precise changes to DNA, offering potential treatments for a range of inherited and acquired disorders. Several technologies support these advances, including zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-based systems, of which the latter has emerged as the most accessible, versatile, and popular. While GE holds great promise, i[...]
Our summary: Genome editing technologies enable precise DNA modifications for medical treatments. Ethical and regulatory considerations are crucial for safe clinical applications. Regulatory agencies provide guidance on safety, consent, and compliance in genome editing practices.
