Abstract
The invention provides DNA molecules and constructs, and their nucleotide sequences, useful for modulating gene expression in plants, and for specifying intracellular or extracellular localization of a gene product of interest. Transgenic plants, plant cells, plant parts, and seeds, comprising the DNA molecules operably linked to heterologous transcribable polynucleotides are also provided.
Claims21
A DNA molecule comprising a DNA sequence selected from the group consisting of:
- a) a sequence with at least 85 percent sequence identity to any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-323 or SEQ ID NOs:
- 352-924;
- b) a sequence comprising any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-323 or SEQ ID NOs:
- 352-924;
- and
- c) a fragment of any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-323 or SEQ ID NOs:
- 352-924, wherein the fragment has gene-regulatory activity, or wherein the encoded peptide functions to localize an operably linked polypeptide within a cell;
- wherein said sequence is operably linked to a heterologous transcribable polynucleotide molecule.
A transgenic plant cell comprising a DNA construct comprising a sequence selected from the group consisting selected from the group consisting of:
- a) a sequence with at least 85 percent sequence identity to any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-323 or SEQ ID NOs:
- 352-924;
- b) a sequence comprising any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-323 or SEQ ID NOs:
- 352-924;
- and
- c) a fragment of any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-323 or SEQ ID NOs:
- 352-924, wherein the fragment has gene-regulatory activity, or wherein the encoded peptide functions to localize an operably linked polypeptide within a cell;
- wherein said sequence is operably linked to a heterologous transcribable polynucleotide molecule.
A DNA molecule comprising a DNA sequence encoding a chloroplast transit peptide, wherein the protein sequence of the encoded transit peptide is selected from the group consisting of:
- a) a transit peptide protein sequence of any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 324-350;
- and
- b) a transit peptide protein sequence with at least 95 percent sequence identity to any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 324-350;
- wherein the chloroplast transit peptide-encoding DNA molecule is operably linked to a heterologous transcribable polynucleotide molecule.
