摘要:
This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a protein involved in regulation of gene expression. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the protein involved in regulation of gene expression, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the protein involved in regulation of gene expression in a transformed host cell.
摘要:
Compositions and methods are provided for the targeted integration of a polynucleotide sequence of interest into the genome of a plant or plant cell. The methods and compositions employ recognition sites for endonucleases and endonucleases in combination with site-specific recombination sites/recombinases to provide an effective system for establishing target sites within the genome of a plant, plant cell or seed. Once such target sites are established, a variety of methods can be employed to further modify the target sites such that they contain a variety of polynucleotides of interest.
摘要:
Methods for producing in a plant a complex transgenic trait locus comprising at least two altered target sequences in a genomic region of interest are disclosed. The methods involve the use of two or more double-strand-break-inducing agents, each of which can cause a double-strand break in a target sequence in the genomic region of interest which results in an alteration in the target sequence. Also disclosed are complex transgenic trait loci in plants. A complex transgenic trait locus comprises at least two altered target sequences that are genetically linked to a polynucleotide of interest. Plants, plant cells, plant parts, and seeds comprising one or more complex transgenic trait loci are also disclosed.
摘要:
Oilseed plants which have been transformed to produce at least 8.0% arachidonic acid (ARA) as well as uses of oils and seeds obtained from such transformed plants in a variety of food and feed applications are described.
摘要:
This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a plant enzyme that catalyze steps in the biosynthesis of lysine, threonine, methionine, cysteine and isoleucine from aspartate, the enzyme a member selected from the group consisting of: dihydrodipicolinate reductase, diaminopimelate epimerase, threonine synthase, threonine deaminase and S-adenosylmethionine synthetase. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the enzyme, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the enzyme in a transformed host cell.
摘要:
The promoters of a soybean seed maturation protein PM29 and a soybean late-embryogenesis abundant protein LEA3 and fragments thereof and their use in promoting the expression of one or more heterologous nucleic acid fragments in plants are described.
