Abstract
This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a lipase. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the lipase, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the lipase in a transformed host cell.
Claims11
An isolated polynucleotide comprising:
- (a) a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide having lipase activity, wherein the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide and the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2 have at least 90% sequence identity based on the Clustal method of alignment, or
- (b) a full-length complement of the nucleotide sequence of (a).
