polypeptide with 4 - cumarate: coa ligase activity and their uses.

摘要

Novel isolated polynucleotides and polypeptides associated with the lignin biosynthetic pathway are provided, together with constructs including such sequences. Methods for the modulation of lignin content, lignin structure and lignin composition in target organisms are also disclosed, the methods comprising incorporating one or more of the polynucleotides of the present invention into the genome of a target organism.
