摘要:
The invention relates to a method for producing eicosapentanoic acid, docosapentanoic acid and/or docohexanoic acid in transgenic plants. According to said method, the plant is provided with at least one nucleic acid sequence coding for a polypeptide with a Δ6 desaturase activity, at least one nucleic acid sequence coding for a polypeptide with a Δ6 elongase activity, at least one nucleic acid sequence coding for a polypeptide with a Δ5 desaturase activity, and at least one nucleic acid sequence coding for a polypeptide with a Δ5 elongase activity, the nucleic acid sequence coding for a polypeptide with a Δ5 elongase activity being modified in relation to the nucleic acid sequence in the organism from which the sequence originates, such that it is adapted to the codon use in at least one type of plant. For the production of docosahexanoic acid, at least one nucleic acid sequence coding for a polypeptide with a Δ4 desaturase activity is also introduced into the plant.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for producing arachidonic acid and/or eicosapentaenoic acid in transgenic useful plants by introducing into the plant nucleic acids coding for polypeptides having Δ6-desaturase, Δ6-elongase or Δ5-desaturase activity. Furthermore, a gene coding for an ω3-desaturase is advantageously expressed in said useful plants. In another advantageous embodiment of the process, further nucleic acid sequences coding for polypeptides of fatty acid or lipid metabolism biosynthesis may be expressed in the plants. Particularly advantageous nucleic acid sequences here are those coding for a Δ8-desaturase, Δ12-desaturase, Δ15-desaturase, Δ4-desaturase, Δ9-elongase and/or Δ5-elongase activity.The invention further relates to the use of the oils, lipids and/or fatty acids produced in the process according to the invention in feedstuffs or foodstuffs, cosmetics or pharmaceuticals.

The invention relates to a method for producing arachidonic acid and/or eicosapentaenoic acid in useful transgenic plants, according to which nucleic acids, which encode polypeptides with Δ-6-desaturase activity, Δ-6-elongase activity or Δ-5-desaturase activity, are introduced into the plants. As an added advantage, a gene that encodes a Δ-3-desaturase is expressed in the useful plants. In an additional embodiment of the method, additional nucleic acid sequences, which encode polypeptides involved in the biosynthesis of the fatty acid or lipid metabolism, can be expressed in the plants. Particularly advantageous nucleic acid sequences are those that encode Δ-8-desaturase activity, Δ-12-desaturase activity, Δ-15-desaturase activity, Δ-4-desaturase activity, Δ-9-elongase activity and/or Δ-5-elongase activity. The invention also relates to the use of the oils, lipids and/or fatty acids that have been produced by said method in animal feed or foodstuffs, cosmetics or pharmaceutical products.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to promoters of flax conlinin and ω-3 desaturase genes. The promoters guide high levels of the expression exclusively in flax developing seeds. This specific expression pattern concomitant with the biosynthesis of storage lipids and proteins make these promoters particularly useful for seed-specific modification of fatty acid and protein compositions in plant seeds.
