| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 6660524 | Control of gene expression in eukaryotes A chemically inducible gene expression system is described. A chimeric gene having a first sequence comprising a promoter and a regulator polypeptide is linked with a second sequence comprising a promoter and a coding or non-coding sequence. Expression of... | 12/09/2003 |
| 6489540 | Plastid-targeting nucleic acid sequence, a novel ଲ-amylase sequence, a stimulus-responsive promoter and uses thereof The invention provides a novel chloroplast targeted novel ଲ-amylase sequence (ct ଲ-amylase), a novel chloroplast targeting nucleic acid sequence and a novel ଲ-amylase sequence. There is also disclosed an inducible promoter which is indep... | 12/03/2002 |
| 6486383 | Modification of starch content in plants The present invention relates to a transgenic plant which comprises a recombinant gene encoding one of the subunit proteins of adenosine diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase ("ADPG PPase"). In plants, functional ADPG PPase holoenzyme is a heterotetrameric p... | 11/26/2002 |
| 6468799 | Genetically modified plants with altered starch Starch of wheat and maize plants is altered by the introduction of a chimeric gene comprising a glycogen synthase coding sequence under the control of a promoter directing expression and a terminator. A transit peptide for translocation of the glycogen sy... | 10/22/2002 |
| 6323393 | Enhancer-increased gene expression in plants The invention provides enhancers for one or more gene promoters, which enhancers are nucleotide sequences rich in A and T bases, the total amount of A and T bases comprising more than 50% of the nucleotide sequence. Particular sequences are identified fro... | 11/27/2001 |
| 6294713 | Modification of sucrose accumulation in the tubers of potatoes A sequence from the gene encoding for reduced sugar production is used, in sense or antisense orientation to transform potato such that less sugar is stored in the tubers of the transformed plant.... | 09/25/2001 |
| 6197588 | Plastid inner envelope membrane targeting polypeptides, manufacture and use thereof A polypeptide amino acid sequence capable of targeting the plastid inner envelope membrane of a plant, and a nucleotide sequence therefor, are described, as well as a chimaeric gene comprising a gene promoter, a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide ... | 03/06/2001 |
| 6140554 | Specificity of gene expression This invention seeks to improve the specificity of gene expression by targeting a specific expression site of a target gene. There is thus provided a chimaeric gene which comprises a promoter which expresses in more than one region of the organism to be a... | 10/31/2000 |
| 6096945 | Modification of starch content in plants A method of increasing the activity of adenosine diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase (ADPG PPase) in a plant that produces a functional ADPG PPase, comprising introducing into the plant a gene encoding one of the subunit proteins of a heterotetrameric ADPG... | 08/01/2000 |
| 5830724 | Modification of starch production A process is provided whereby the constitution of starch produced in a plant is altered without there being a substantial change in the total amount of starch which is produced. In the process a plant cell is transformed using a chimaeric gene comprising ... | 11/03/1998 |
| 5824876 | Plant parasitic nematode control A method of controlling nematodes, the method includes the steps of identification of a gene induced within a successfully infected plant by nematode infection of said plant and modifying the gene to confer nematode resistance to the plant.... | 10/20/1998 |
| 5589622 | Plant parasitic nematode control A method of controlling nematodes, the method includes the steps of identification of a gene induced within a successfully infected plant by nematode infection of said plant and modifying the gene to confer nematode resistance to the plant.... | 12/31/1996 |
| 5365016 | Modification of starch production A process is provided whereby the constitution of starch produced in a plant is altered without there being a substantial change in the total amount of starch which is produced. In the process a plant cell is transformed using a chimaeric gene comprising ... | 11/15/1994 |
