  • Patent number: 8030543
    Abstract: The invention describes a highly improved, reproducible and a consistent method of transformation and regeneration that results in obtaining 12-15% transgenic plants. The present invention relates to a method of selecting genetically transformed Sunflower explants based on their ability to utilize Xylose as a sole carbohydrate source. Further disclosed is the nucleic acid sequence of the Xylose Isomerase gene, vector construction for incorporation of the selection marker gene and the process of Agrobacterium Mediated Transformation of target host plant with the vector comprising the gene encoding the enzyme Xylose isomerase under the functional combination of the heterologous regulatory sequences. Also disclosed is the method of selecting the putative transformants post transformation with the said vector that possess a metabolic advantage of utilizing Xylose as a sole carbon source.

  • Publication number: 20090029907
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the recombinant method used for the production of a highly glycosylated form (in total five N linked glycosylations as opposed to three N linked glyosylations in the natural EPO) of erythropoietin. The added sites for glycosylation will result in greater number of carbohydrate chains, and higher sialic acid content than human EPO, which in turn would impart to the recombinant molecule a longer half-life. The invention further relates to the construction of expression cassettes comprising nucleic acid sequences encoding for the highly glycosylated form of Erythropoietin and stable expression in the host cells. The invention further relates to the optimized method for purification of the erythropoiesis stimulating protein.
