Claims17
A quadruple mutant (qm) Arabidopsis plant having mutations that knock_out each of four endogenous genes and expressing a gene encoding an α1,6-fucosyltransferase (FUT8) protein consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 10 to produce a protein containing a paucimannose-type-N-glycan that does not include α1,3-fucose and β1,2-xylose residues, but include an α1,6-fucose reside,
- wherein the four endogenous genes are:
- the α1,3-fucosyltransferase A (FucTA) gene encoding an α1,3-fucosyltransferase A (FucTA) consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 2;
- the α1,3-fucosyltransferase B (FucTB) gene encoding an α1,3-fucosyltransferase B (FucTB) consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 4;
- the β1,2-xylosyltransferase (XylT) gene encoding a β1,2-xylosyltransferase (XylT) consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 6;
- and
- the β1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase II (GnTII) gene encoding a β1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase II (GnTII) consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 8.
A method for producing a transgenic Arabidopsis plant for production of a protein containing a paucimannose-type N-glycan that does not include α1,3-fucose and β1,2-xylose residues but includes an α1,6-fucose residue, the method comprising:
- preparing a quadruple mutant (qm) Arabidopsis plant having mutations that knock_out each of four endogenous genes to produce a protein containing a paucimannose-type N-glycan that does not include α1,3-fucose and β1,2-xylose residues;
- and
- transforming the quadruple mutant Arabidopsis plant with a recombinant vector containing a transgene encoding the α1,6-fucosyltransferase (FUT8) consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 10 to overexpress the FUT8 gene
- wherein the four endogenous genes are:
- the α1,3-fucosyltransferase A (FucTA) gene encoding an α1,3-fucosyltransferase A (FucTA) consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 2;
- the α1,3-fucosyltransferase B (FucTB) gene encoding an α1,3-fucosyltransferase B (FucTB) consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 4;
- the β1,2-xylosyltransferase (XylT) gene encoding a β1,2-xylosyltransferase (XylT) consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 6;
- and
- the β1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase II (GnTII) gene encoding a β1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase II (GnTII) consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 8.
