Novel proteins are provided herein, including proteins capable of catalyzing the acetylation of glyphosate and other structurally related proteins. Also provided are novel polynucleotides capable of encoding these proteins, compositions that include one or more of these novel proteins and/or polynucleotides, recombinant cells and transgenic plants comprising these novel compounds, diversification methods involving the novel compounds, and methods of using the compounds. Some of the novel methods and compounds provided herein can be used to render an organism, such as a plant, resistant to glyphosate.
An isolated or recombinant polynucleotide comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence that is at least 97% identical to SEQ ID NO:919, wherein said polypeptide has glyphosate-N-acetyltransferase activity, wherein percent identity is calculated using ClustalW analysis (version W 1.8) using default parameters:
A nucleic acid construct comprising an isolated or recombinant polynucleotide comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence that is at least 97% identical to SEQ ID NO:919, wherein said polypeptide has glynhosate-N-acetyltransferase activity, wherein percent identity is calculated using Clustal W analysis (version W 1.8) using default parameters:
A vector comprising a nucleic acid construct comprising an isolated or recombinant polynucleotide comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence that is at least 97% identical to SEQ ID NO:919, wherein said polypeptide has glyphosate-N-acetyltransferase activity, wherein percent identity is calculated using Clustal W analysis (version W 1.8) using default parameters:
