Patents Assigned to Royal Veterinary Agricultural University
  • Publication number: 20090005296
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and means for ammonia and/or ammonium transport in a variety of organisms, including mammals, yeast and plants. In particular, the present invention is related to the use of isolated polypeptide molecules, which are particular members of the aquaporin superfamily, and isolated nucleic acid molecule that encode such polypeptides in the transport of NH4+/NH3 across a membrane.

  • Patent number: 6649814
    Abstract: Cytochrome P450II dependent monooxygenases and DNA molecules encoding these monooxygenases are provided, which are able to catalyze the biosynthethic conversion of aldoximes to nitrils and the conversion of said nitrils to the corresponding cyanohydrins, which are the presursors of cyanogenic glycosides. Moreover, the invention provides methods for obtaining DNA molecules according to the invention and methods for obtaining transgenic plants resistant to insects, acarids, or nematodes or plants with improved nutritive value.
    Type: Grant
