Abstract
The her-1 gene of Caenorhabditis elegans has been isolated and sequenced. The her-1 gene encodes an amino acid sequence which induces male differentiation. Methods for recombinantly producing the her-1 protein and for transforming plants, bacteria and fungi with the her-1 gene to express the her-1 protein are disclosed.
Claims5
