DNA SEQUENCES ENCODING FOR AN AMINO ACID TRANSPORTER, PLASMIDS, BACTERIA, YEASTS AND PLANTS CONTAINING AN AMINO ACID TRANSPORTER AND THEIR USE

摘要

DNA sequences selected from the group comprising: (a) DNA sequences which contain the coding region of an amino acid transporter, characterised in that the information contained in the nucleotide sequence allows, by integration in a plant genome, the formation of RNA, and with this RNA, a new amino acid transport activity can be introduced in the plant cells or an endogenous amino acid transporter activity can be expressed; (b) DNA sequences having at least 70% homology with a sequence of (a) and having essentially the same biological properties; and (c) a fragment of a DNA sequence of (a) or (b) and having essentially the same biological properties as a sequence of (a). 1009 כ" ח באלול התש" ס - September 28, 2000
