  • DNA sequence encoding plant 2-acyltransferase
    Patent number: 6583340
    Abstract: Plants, particularly transgenic plants, may be produced having a 2-acyltransferase enzyme from Limnanthes with an altered substrate specificity compared to the native enzyme. For example, oil seed rape (Brassica napus) may contain the 2-acyltransferase transgene derived from Limnanthes douglasii in order to produce trierucin. The cDNA sequence of Limnanthes douglasii 2-acyltransferase and its equivalents protein sequence are disclosed.
