The invention describes a highly improved, reproducible and a consistent method of transformation and regeneration that results in obtaining 12-15% transgenic plants. The present invention relates to a method of selecting genetically transformed Sunflower explants based on their ability to utilize Xylose as a sole carbohydrate source. Further disclosed is the nucleic acid sequence of the Xylose Isomerase gene, vector construction for incorporation of the selection marker gene and the process of Agrobacterium Mediated Transformation of target host plant with the vector comprising the gene encoding the enzyme Xylose isomerase under the functional combination of the heterologous regulatory sequences. Also disclosed is the method of selecting the putative transformants post transformation with the said vector that possess a metabolic advantage of utilizing Xylose as a sole carbon source. Increased efficiency of regeneration, better growth and survival has been observed on subjection to the described method of positive selection. The subject invention alleviates the disadvantages of negative selection methods such as the undesired elimination of the transformed cells and the potential environmental harm caused due to the dispersal of the antibiotic and the herbicide resistant genes.

The present invention relates to the recombinant method used for the production of soluble form of human tissue plasminogen activator variant. In this variant the threonine at position 103 of the endogenous tissue plasminogen activator is replaced by an asparagine leading to a new glycosylation site. At position 117 of the endogenous tissue plasminogen activator asparagine has been replaced by glutamine, leading to the removal of an N linked glycosylation site. At position 296-299 the amino acids lysine, histidine, arginine, and arginine have been replaced by four alanine amino acids. The invention further relates to the de novo synthesis of the nucleic acid sequence encoding tissue plasminogen activator, transformation of the constructed nucleic acid sequences into competent bacteria and sub-cloning of the same into mammalian expression vectors for the expression of the desired protein. DNA constructs comprising the control elements associated with the gene of interest have been disclosed. The recombinant human tissue plasminogen activator, according to the invention, and the salts and functional derivatives thereof, may comprise the active ingredient of pharmaceutical compositions for treatment of treatment of heart attack and stroke patients. These compositions are yet another aspect of the present invention.
