Abstract
This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a glucose-6-phosphate/phosphate translocator. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the glucose-6-phosphate/phosphate translocator, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the glucose-6-phosphate/phosphate translocator in a transformed host cell.
Claims12
An isolated polynucleotide comprising:
- (a) a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide having glucose-6-phosphate/phosphate translocator activity, wherein the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide and the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:4 have at least 86% sequence identity based on the Clustal alignment method, or
- (b) the complement of the nucleotide sequence, wherein the complement and the nucleotide sequence contain the same number of nucleotides and are 100% complementary.
