Abstract
This invention pertains to nucleic acid fragments encoding plant proteins that are homologs to the cis-prenyltransferases UPP synthase from the bacterium Micrococcus luteus or Dedol-PP synthase from yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. More specifically, this invention pertains to cis-prenyltransferase homologs from wheat, grape, soybean, rice, African daisy, rubber tree latex and pot marigold.
Claims10
An isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a plant cis-prenyltransferase protein selected from the group consisting of:
- (a) an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding the amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO:8;
- (b) an isolated nucleic acid molecule that hybridizes with a nucleic acid sequence of (a) under the following hybridization conditions:
- 0.1×SSC, 0.1% SDS, 65° C. and washed with 0.2×SSC, 0.5% SDS;
- (c) an isolated nucleic acid fragment that hybridizes with a nucleic acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO:7, under the following hybridization conditions:
- 0.1×SSC, 0.1% SDS, 65° C. and washed with 0.2×SSC, 0.5% SDS;
- or an isolated nucleic acid fragment that is complementary to (a), (b), or (c).
