Patent number: 10329575Abstract: The present invention provides DNA molecules as shown in SEQ ID NO:2199 that constitute fragments of the genome of a plant. The DNA molecules are useful for specifying a gene product in cells as regulatory sequences. One of ordinary skill in the art, having this data, can obtain cloned DNA fragments, synthetic DNA fragments or polypeptides constituting desired sequences by recombinant methodology known in the art or described therein.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2015Date of Patent: June 25, 2019Assignee: CERES, INC.Inventors: Nickolai Alexandrov, Shing Kwok, Peter Mascia, Jack Okamuro, Roger Pennell, Richard Schneeberger, Tatiana Tatarinova, Wayne Volkmuth, Nestor Apuya, Vyacheslav Brover, Jean-Baptiste Dumas, Yiwen Fang, Kenneth A.

Publication number: 20180223303Abstract: The present invention provides DNA molecules that constitute fragments of the genome of a plant, and polypeptides encoded thereby. The DNA molecules are useful for specifying a gene product in cells, either as a promoter or as a protein coding sequence or as an UTR or as a 3? termination sequence, and are also useful in controlling the behavior of a gene in the chromosome, in controlling the expression of a gene or as tools for genetic mapping, recognizing or isolating identical or related DNA fragments, or identification of a particular individual organism, or for clustering of a group of organisms with a common trait. One of ordinary skill in the art, having this data, can obtain cloned DNA fragments, synthetic DNA fragments or polypeptides constituting desired sequences by recombinant methodology known in the art or described herein.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2017Publication date: August 9, 2018Inventors: Nickolai Alexandrov, Nestor Apuya, Vyacheslav Brover, Xianfeng Chen, Jean-Baptiste Dumas, Yiwen Fang, Kenneth Feldmann, Peter Mascia, Jack Okamuro, Roger Pennell, Richard Schneeberger, Gopalakrishnan Subramanian, Maxim Troukhan, Liansheng Zheng, Edward Kiegle, Diane Jofuku Okamuro, William J.
