摘要:
The invention describes isolation and functional expression of RUBISCO genes derived from C4 plants and red algae in C3 plant hosts. Specifically the RUBISCO genes of Amaranthus edulis were functionally expressed at high levels in the transgenic crop plants soybean and tobacco, while the RUBISCO gene from Griffithsia monilis alga was expressed at lower levels in the transgenic crop tobacco.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for transformation of plant chloroplasts with genetic constructs by insertion of a RUBISCO gene in a non-RUBISCO site of the chloroplast genome to generate transformed plants that produce large amounts of a functional RUBISCO enzyme.
摘要:
Zymomonas expressing xylose isomerase from A. missouriensis was found to have improved xylose utilization, growth, and ethanol production when grown in media containing xylose. Xylose isomerases related to that of A. missouriensis were identified structurally through molecular phylogenetic and Profile Hidden Markov Model analyses, providing xylose isomerases that may be used to improve xylose utilization.
