The present invention is in the field of plant biochemistry. More specifically the invention relates to nucleic acid sequences from plant cells, in particular, nucleic acid sequences from maize and soybean associated with the tetrapyrrole pathway. The invention encompasses nucleic acid molecules that encode proteins and fragments of proteins. In addition, the invention also encompasses proteins and fragments of proteins so encoded and antibodies capable of binding these proteins or fragments. The invention also relates to methods of using the nucleic acid molecules, proteins and fragments of proteins and antibodies, for example for genome mapping, gene identification and analysis, plant breeding, preparation of constructs for use in plant gene expression and transgenic plants.
A substantially purified nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleic acid sequence that shares between 100% and 90% sequence identity with the nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:
A transformed plant comprising a nucleic acid molecule which comprises a nucleic acid sequence, wherein said nucleic acid sequence shares between 100% and 90% sequence identity with SEQ ID NO:
A transformed seed comprising a transformed plant cell comprising a nucleic acid molecule which comprises a nucleic acid sequence, wherein said nucleic acid sequence shares between 100% and 90% sequence identity with SEQ ID NO:
