Red light triggered self-destruction – a new mechanism preventing uncontrolled spread of transgenic plants

Background – Why generating a plant which kill itself under certain conditions?

Our solution – a red light-triggered autokill system

PhyB - PIF3/PIF6 interaction under red light exposition

Phytochrome B (abbrev.: PhyB) is a plant adölfkjadölkfjafölkjasfölkasjdf

Reconstitution of Split-TEV-Protease

Liberation of membrane-anchored nuclease and nuclear translocation

Disruption of the genetic material and programmed cell-death

Design of our construct
