摘要:
The present invention relates to novel gene sequences encoding insecticidal proteins produced by Bacillus thuringiensis strains. Particularly, new chimeric genes encoding a Cry1C, Cry1B or Cry1D protein are provided which are useful to protect plants from insect damage. Also included herein are plant cells or plants comprising such genes and methods of making or using them, as well as plant cells or plants comprising one of such chimeric gene and at least one other of such chimeric genes.
摘要:
The invention provides methods and means for the identification of genes involved in the determination of a plant trait or for the identification encoded by a nucleic acid comprising a determined nucleotide sequence. The invention also provides kits comprising viral RNA vectors derived from satellite viruses and corresponding helper viruses for the introduction of inhibitory RNA into plant cells and plants.
摘要:
The invention relates to the isolation of promoters from corn capable of directing transcription of an operably linked foreign DNA sequence preferentially, selectively or exclusively in the roots of plants, such as corn plants. The invention also relates to the use of chimeric genes for the preferential or selective expression of biologically active RNA of interest in the roots of plants, such as corn plants. Plants, such as corn plants, comprising corn root preferential or selective promoters operably linked to a foreign DNA sequence which, upon transcription, yield biologically active RNA preferentially or selectively in the roots of plants are also provided.

摘要:
The invention provides Nicotiana benthamiana mutant plants which are incapable of forming xylosyl-structures on glycoproteins. In addition, the invention provides methods for the production of heterologous glycoproteins in said mutant plants.
摘要:
The invention provides methods to modify the N-glycosylation pattern of glycoproteins in higher plant cells, through reducing or eliminating the level of β(1,2) xylosyltransferase and α (1,3) fucosyltransferase activity and increasing the β(1,4) galactosyltransferase activity in the cell of the higher plant.

摘要:
Provided is a novel method to produce a plant cell or plant having an altered N-glycosylation pattern resulting, in particular, in a low level of β-1,2-xylose residues and core α-1,3-fucose residues on protein-bound N-glycans. The plant cell or plant is of particular interest for producing therapeutic glycoproteins with a low, or not detectable, level of β-1,2-xylose and α-1,3-fucose residues. Also provided are novel α-1,3-fucosyltransferase nucleotide sequences and uses.
