摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for producing a gene product by expressing a gene encoding said gene product in angiosperm host cells, which method comprises: a) constructing a vector expressible in angiosperm host cells, said vector comprising a promoter region derived from an amylase gene selected from SBAmyA, SBAmyB, SBAmyC genes or SBAmyD of the sugar beet and a gene encoding a desired gene product; b) transforming a compatible angiosperm host cell with said vector; c) cultivating the resulting transformant host cell to a sugar-depleted or sugar-free condition to promote the expression of said gene under the control of such promoter region; and d) recovering the product of the expressed gene. The sugar beet gene when incorporated into a dicot seed or plant has improved biological properties. The gene sequences and the products thereof are claimed.

The invention is directed to blood proteins produced in monocot seeds and isolated therefrom for use in therapeutic compositions, as well as to methods of making these isolated blood proteins and to therapeutic compositions comprising them.
摘要:
A group of novel rice &bgr;-glucanase genes, identified as &bgr;-glucanases 2-9 (Gns 2-9), and the corresponding &bgr;-glucanase enzymes, are disclosed. The genes, and the gene promoters, are useful in a variety of transgenic monocot plants, for achieving increased plant resistance to fungal infection, improved growth characteristics, and high levels of expression of heterologous protein in various tissues obtained from the plants.
摘要:
A method for producing .alpha..sub.1 -antitrypsin (AAT) in plant cells is disclosed. Monocot plant cells transformed with an AAT coding sequence are cultivated under conditions efficient for protein expression and secretion. Also disclosed are a codon-optimized AAT coding sequence that is efficiently translated in plant cell culture and a novel AAT protein having the glycosylation pattern characteristic of plant cells and suitable for therapeutic use in humans.
摘要:
The invention is directed to seed and seed extract compositions containing levels of a human milk protein between 3-40% or higher of the total protein weight of the soluble protein extractable from the seed. Also disclosed is a method of producing the seed with high levels of extractable human milk protein. The method includes transforming a monocotyledonous plant with a chimeric gene having a protein-coding sequence encoding a protein normally present in human milk under the control of a seed maturation-specific promoter. The method may further includes a leader DNA sequence encoding a monocot seed-specific transit sequence capable to target a linked milk protein to a storage body.
摘要:
A chimeric plant promoter which is responsive to sugar depletion or deprivation is disclosed. The promoter includes a promoter element and, carried in the element, a heterologous sequence from the rice Amy3D that is responsive to sugar depletion. Also disclosed is a plant transfecting vector containing the sequence, and plant cell transfected with the vector.
摘要:
A novel restriction endonuclease designated XcyI recognizes and cleaves the sequence 5'-C.dwnarw.CCGGG-3', where the arrow indicates the cleavage site. The enzyme may be obtained from Xanthamonas cyanopsidis.Xanthamonas cyanopsidis strain 13D5 was deposited at the American Type Culture Collection on Jan. 20, 1984, and granted accession No. 39587.
摘要:
The invention is directed to food and food additive compositions comprising one or more human milk proteins produced in the seeds of a transgenic plant and methods of making the same. The invention is further directed to improved infant formula comprising such food supplement composition.
摘要:
This invention provides for the secretion of heterologous protein in plant systems. In particular, this invention provides for the production of heterologous proteins by malting of monocot plant seeds. The heterologous genes are expressed during germination of the seeds and isolated from a malt. Also disclosed are chimeric genes, vectors and methods relating to the present invention. Protein production by cell culture techniques is also described.
摘要:
This invention provides for the secretion of heterologous protein in plant systems. In particular, this invention provides for the production of heterologous proteins in plant cultu1res and seeds. Where seeds are the source of the protein, the heterologous genes are expressed during germination and isolated from a malt.
