What is the Golden Banana?
The Golden Banana is a project focused on enhancing the nutritional value of bananas through genetic engineering. This involves the expression of a single transgene to increase the pro-vitamin A content of banana fruit, making it a potential solution for vitamin A deficiency in regions where bananas are a staple food.
Background
The project is the result of collaborative research between the Centre for Tropical Crops and Biocommodities at Queensland University of Technology and other institutions. It involves the use of various promoters, such as the maize polyubiquitin promoter and two promoters specific to banana, to control the expression of the transgene responsible for pro-vitamin A production.
Significance
The Golden Banana has the potential to positively impact public health by providing a more nutritious source of vitamin A in banana-rich diets. This project is particularly significant for tropical regions where vitamin A deficiency is prevalent and bananas are a staple food item.
Related Concepts
The term "Golden Banana" is also used in other contexts unrelated to genetic engineering, such as a motivational story about recognizing employee contributions and a cosmetic set in the video game "Sea of Thieves".
