Estimating the term…
Isolated nucleic acid molecules, designated TCMRP nucleic acid molecules, which encode novel TCMRPs from e.g. Phycomitrella patens are described. The invention also provides antisense nucleic acid molecules, recombinant expression vectors containing TCMRP nucleic acid molecules, and host cells into which the expression vectors have been introduced. The invention still further provides isolated TCMRPs, mutated TCMRPs, fusion proteins, antigenic peptides and methods for the improvement of production of a desired compound from transformed cells, organisms or plants based on genetic engineering of TCMRP genes in these organisms.
An isolated nucleic acid molecule from a moss encoding a Tocopherol and Carotenoid Metabolism Related Protein (TCMRP), or a portion thereof.
An isolated nuclei acid molecule wherein the moss is selected from Physcomitrella patens or Ceratodon purpureus.
An isolated nucleic acid molecule from mosses selected from the group consisting of those sequences set forth in Appendix A, or a portion thereof.
An isolated nucleic acid molecule which encodes a polypeptide sequence selected from the group consisting of those sequences set forth in Appendix B.
An isolated nucleic acid molecule which encodes a naturally occurring allelic variant of a polypeptide selected from the group of amino acid sequences consisting of those sequences set forth in Appendix B.
An isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence which is at least 50% homologous to a nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of those sequences set forth in Appendix A, or a portion thereof.
An isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a fragment of at least 15 nucleotides of a nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of those sequences set forth in Appendix A.
An isolated TCMRP from mosses or algae or a portion thereof.
An isolated TCMRP from microorganisms or fungi or a portion thereof.
An isolated TCMRP from plants or a portion thereof.
An isolated polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of those sequences set forth in Appendix B.
An isolated polypeptide comprising a naturally occurring allelic variant of a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of those sequences set forth in Appendix B, or a portion thereof.
An isolated polypeptide which is encoded by a nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence which is at least 50% homologous to a nucleic acid selected from the group consisting of those sequences set forth in Appendix A.
An isolated polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence which is at least 50% homologous to an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of those sequences set forth in Appendix B.
