    摘要: Methods for identifying organisms capable of degrading fumonisin. Fumonisin can be incorporated into culture medium for selection of organisms resistant to fumonisin and/or capable of growing on fumonisin as a sole carbon source. Using this method, several organisms have been identified. These organisms can be used to isolate the enzymes and the genes responsible for conferring fumonisin-resistance. The gene can be cloned and inserted into a suitable expression vector so that the protein can be further characterized. Additionally, the DNA encoding for fumonisin degrading enzymes can be used to transform plant cells normally susceptible to Fusarium or other toxin-producing fungus infection. Plants can be regenerated from the transformed plant cells. In this way, a transgenic plant can be produced with the capability of degrading fumonisin, as well as with the capability of producing the degrading enzymes. Methods for detoxification in grain, grain processing, silage, food crops and in animal feed and rumen microbes are also disclosed.

    摘要: The present invention provides polynucleotides and related polypeptides of the enzyme APAO isolated from Exophiala spinifera and Rhinocladiella atrovirens. The polynucleotides may be mutated to remove glycosylation sites and cysteine residues. Additionally, the present invention provides recombinant expression cassettes, host cells, transgenic plants, and transgenic seed. The present invention also provides for polynucleotides containing both APAO and a fumonisin esterase. In addition, the present invention provides methods for producing the APAO enzyme in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems, methods for detecting fumonisins, and methods for identifying transformed plant cells. Methods for degrading fungal toxins in plants, grain, grain processing, silage, food crops and in animal feed are also disclosed.

    摘要: Methods and compositions for identifying a nucleotide sequence that encodes a polypeptide that directly or indirectly modulates the activity of a transcriptional regulatory region are provided. The methods permit the efficient screening of a large number of candidate nucleotide sequences for potential modulators of transcription. In particular, a population of polynucleotide constructs comprising a common transcriptional regulatory region operably linked to a candidate sequence is introduced into a population of host cells, and each candidate sequence is screened for modulation in its expression level, for example, using methods that employ hybridization to a complementary DNA microarray. The expression level of the candidate sequence correlates to the activity of the transcriptional regulatory region. Thus, alterations in the expression level of a candidate sequence indicate that the sequence encodes a polypeptide that modulates the activity of the transcriptional regulatory region. Compositions for practicing the invention are further provided.
