US 9,957,516 B2 · Method for modulating expression of specific protein using specific transcription factor, isoprenoid-producing plant having transgene encoding specific transcription factor, and method for producing polyisoprenoid using isoprenoid-producing plant

Abstract

The present invention provides methods for enhancing the polyisoprenoid biosynthesis pathway. The present invention further provides isoprenoid-producing plants having an enhanced polyisoprenoid biosynthesis pathway, and methods for producing a polyisoprenoid using such an isoprenoid-producing plant. The present invention relates to methods for regulating the expression of specific protein(s) by a specific transcription factor; isoprenoid-producing plants into which has been introduced a gene encoding a specific transcription factor; and methods for producing a polyisoprenoid using such an isoprenoid-producing plant.
