  • Transplastomic plants free of the selectable marker gene
    Patent number: 7964771
    Abstract: The present invention relates to transplastomic plants free of the selectable marker gene, to a method of obtaining such plants and to the vectors used.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 3, 2006
    Date of Patent: June 21, 2011
    Assignee: Bayer Crop Science AG

  • METHODS AND MEANS FOR EXACT REPLACEMENT OF TARGET DNA IN EUKARYOTIC ORGANISMS
    Publication number: 20100175143
    Abstract: Methods and means are provided for the exact exchange in eukaryotic cells, such as plant cells, of a target DNA sequence for a DNA sequence of interest through homologous recombination, whereby the selectable or screenable marker used during the homologous recombination phase for temporal selection of the gene replacement events can subsequently be removed without leaving a foot-print employing a method for the removal of a selected DNA flanked by two nucleotide sequences in direct repeats.

  • Transplastomic Plants Expressing Lumen-Targeted Protein
    Publication number: 20090328249
    Abstract: The present invention relates to nucleic acid sequences and methods useful in targeting a recombinant protein encoded by a transgene integrated into the chloroplast genome to the thylakoid lumen of chloroplast, whereby said nucleic acid sequences encode bacterial signal peptides. The invention also relates to means and methods for expressing a disulfide-bond containing protein of interest in a transplastomic plant cell.

  • Transformed plants with enhanced prenylquinone biosynthesis
    Publication number: 20050257283
    Abstract: The present invention relates to transformed plants, in particular transformed plants producing larger amounts of plastoquinones, tocotrienols and tocopherols than non-transformed identical plants. This invention also relates to a method for producing these plants, and to a method for cultivating these plants. The plants according to the invention also have the property of being tolerant to herbicides that are inhibitors of the ?-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase enzyme.
