LYSO-PHOSPHATIDIC ACID ACYLTRANSFERASE FROM TROPAEOLUM MAJUS

摘要

The cloning and broad characterization of a lyso-phosphatidic acidacyltransferase(LPAT2) from T. majus is described. The TmLPAT2 enables the production ofplants,seeds and cells with enhanced oil and/or fatty acid content. In particular,recombinantTmLPAT2 increases levels of VLCFAs, especially erucic acid, in plants, seedsand cells.
