摘要:
An Arabidopsis acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) gene has been isolated and sequenced. The 10 kb gene encodes a 251 kD cytosolic ACCase isozyme. The nucleic acid sequence of the gene is set forth in SEQ ID No. 1 and has been accorded GenBank Accession No. L27074. The cDNA sequence and deduced amino acid sequence of the cDNA are set forth in SEQ ID Nos. 2 and 3, respectively. By controlling expression of the gene of the present invention, carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to produce malonyl-CoA may be controlled. Thus, by introducing constructs of the gene of the present invention in sense or anti-sense orientation, carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to produce malonyl-CoA may be increased or decreased. Consequently, fatty acid synthesis and elongation in plants and seeds which depends on malonyl-CoA may also be controlled.

摘要:
The present invention provides cyclopropane fatty acid synthase genes and proteins, and methods of their use. The present invention encompasses both native and recombinant wild-type forms of the synthase, as well as mutants and variant forms, some of which possess altered characteristics relative to the wild-type synthase. The present invention also provides methods of using cyclopropane fatty acid synthase genes and proteins, including in their expression in transgenic organisms and in the production of cyclopropane fatty acids in plant oils, and in particular seed oils.

摘要:
A synthetic gene which encodes for acyl carrier protein (ACP) has been designed. Construction, cloning, and expression in E. coli of spinach ACP-I has been demonstrated. In vitro production of ACP by appropriate expression vectors carrying the synthetic gene will augment the meager supply of this protein. Analogous genes designed for expression of ACP in plants would be a useful tool for controlling fatty acid synthesis and metabolism.
