Abstract: This invention relates to an isolated polynucleotide encoding a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase that in the presence of linoleic acid results in production of 1-octen-3-ol. The invention also relates to the construction of a recombinant DNA construct comprising all or a portion of the polynucleotide encoding the cytochrome P450 monooxygenases of the invention, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the recombinant DNA construct results in production of altered levels 1-octen-3-ol in a transformed host cell.

Abstract: This invention relates to an isolated polynucleotide encoding an aldehyde reductase enzyme. The invention also relates to the construction of a recombinant construct encoding an aldehyde reductase enzyme wherein expression of the recombinant construct results in production of altered levels of aldehyde reductase enzyme in a transformed host cell. The present invention also concerns soybean products made from seeds obtained from soybean plants transformed with this recombinant construct wherein such seeds having increased aldehyde reductase activity.

Abstract: A high gel strength protein material that can be incorporated into food products. The high gel strength protein material may be a protein concentrate having a lard gel strength of at least about 560.0 grams and a protein content of at least about 65.0 wt. % on a moisture free basis. The high gel strength protein concentrate is obtained by removing soluble components from an alcohol washed soy protein concentrate after a pH adjustment to less than 6.0, readjusting the pH to more than 7.0, and subjecting the resulting concentrate to heat treatment and optionally to shearing to form a product, and thereafter optionally drying the resulting product.

Abstract: Compositions and methods for the alteration of the disulfide status of plant proteins are provided. Novel nucleotide molecules, comprising nucleotide sequences for thioredoxin h and NADPH-thioredoxin reductase, and the proteins encoded thereby are provided. The nucleotide sequences can be used to transform plants alone or in combination with other sequences, such as sequences encoding NADPH generating enzymes, to manipulate the thioredoxin h system and alter the protein disulfide status in plants. Transformed plants, plant cells, plant tissues, seed and grain are provided.

Abstract: This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a thioredoxin protein. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the thioredoxin protein, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the thioredoxin protein in a transformed host cell.
