摘要:
This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a sugar transport protein. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the sugar transport protein, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the sugar transport protein in a transformed host cell.
摘要:
The preparation and use of nucleic acid fragments encoding soybean seed stearoyl-ACP desaturase enzyme or its precursor to modify plant oil composition are described. Chimeric genes incorporating such nucleic acid fragments and suitable regulatory sequences may be utilized to transform plants to control the levels of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids.
摘要:
This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a galactinol synthase. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the galactinol synthase, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the galactinol synthase in a transformed host cell.
摘要:
This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a plastidic phosphoglucomutase protein. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a substantial portion of the plastidic phosphoglucomutase, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the plastidic phosphoglucomutase in a transformed host cell.
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:
The preparation and use of nucleic acid fragments encoding plant fatty acid modifying enzymes associated with modification of the delta-9 position of fatty acids, in particular, formation of conjugated double bonds are disclosed. Chimeric genes incorporating such nucleic acid fragments and suitable regulatory sequences can be used to create transgenic plants having altered lipid profiles. The preparation and use of nucleic acid fragments encoding plant fatty acid modifying enzymes associated with formation of a trans delta-12 double bond also are disclosed. Chimeric genes incorporating such nucleic acid fragments and suitable regulatory sequences can be used to create transgenic plants having altered lipid profiles.
摘要:
An isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a diverged delta-9 fatty acid desaturase is disclosed. Also the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the diverged delta-9 fatty acid desaturase is disclosed, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the diverged delta-9 fatty acid desaturase in a transformed host cell.
