  • Transgenic tree induced by RABG3BCA and use thereof
    Patent number: 9551004
    Abstract: Provided to a transgenic tree induced by RabG3bCA and a use thereof. The transgenic tree serves to control xylem growth through RabG3b of Arabidopsis thaliana, and this function is involved in the growth of poplars. Particularly, the transgenic tree is valuable for industrial use since the increase in length of a fiber cell, which is the most important factor of determining pulp quality, is confirmed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 29, 2012
    Date of Patent: January 24, 2017
    Assignee: KOREA UNIVERSITY RESEARCH AND BUSINESS FOUNDATION
    Inventors: Ohk Mae Kim, Soon Il Kwon, Hong Joo Cho, Eun Woon Noh, Kyoung Heon Kim, Young Hoon Jung

  • Transgenic organism expressing fungal MRP-like ABC transporters
    Patent number: 7358417
    Abstract: The invention relates to a transgenic plant or yeast comprising a DNA molecule encoding fungal ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter protein, which confers resistance to, and/or accumulation of heavy metals and herbicides. The invention also relates to methods of producing transgenic plants expressing fungal YHL035C protein, which can be used for removing heavy metals and herbicides from polluted soil or water.

  • PCR family genes which confer tolerance to heavy metals
    Patent number: 7307199
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel Pcr family genes that confer tolerance to heavy metals to plants and microorganisms. More particularly, the present invention relates to novel Pcr family genes that confer tolerance to cadmium. The invention also relates to plant and microorganisms transformed with any of the Pcr genes thereby having improved resistance to and increased level of toxic materials, and methods of removing heavy metals from contaminated soil and water contaminated by growing the Pcr-transformed plants on the contaminated soils and water.

  • Novel Pcr family genes which confer tolerance to heavy metals
    Publication number: 20060230468
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel Pcr family genes which confer tolerance to heavy metals to organisms. More particularly, the present invention relates to novel Pcr family genes which confer tolerance to cadmium. Organisms transformed with any of the Pcr genes thereby have improved resistance to and increased level of toxic materials. Soil and water contaminated with heavy metals can be cleaned in an environment-friendly and economical manner by growing the Pcr-transformed organism, especially a plant transformed with the Pcr gene.
