Abstract
The present invention relates to at least partially purified protein, capable of modulating the DNA replication in plants, muteins thereof, DNA coding therefor and to a method to confer to one or more plant cells the capacity to provide such a protein or mutein. The invention also relates to plants, comprising the said DNA and the progeny thereof.
Claims28
At least partially purified protein, capable of modulating DNA replication in plants, at least comprising in the amino acid sequence:
- a) one or more of the amino acid sequences chosen from the group consisting of those, given by SEQ ID NOS 6, 7, 10 and 12, or
- b) one or more amino acid sequences having at least 50% amino acid identity with those of a).
Peptide, comprising:
- a) one or more of the amino acid sequences chosen from the group consisting of those, given by SEQ ID NOS 6, 7, 10 and 12, or
- b) one or more amino acid sequences having at least 50% amino acid identity with those of a).
Method for identifying and/or obtaining proteins capable of modulating the DNA replication in plants, comprising a two-hybrid screening assay, using CDC27 polynucleotide sequences as a bait and a cDNA library or of a cell suspension culture as a prey.
