Patents by Inventor Marina Stratmann

Marina Stratmann has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Plant promoters specific for sink organ expression of genes
    Patent number: 5723757
    Abstract: There are described 5' transcriptional regulatory regions of plant genes which ensure sink organ specific expression of cis-linked DNA sequences as well as recombinant double stranded DNA molecules comprising these 5' regulatory regions. Furthermore the present invention relates to a method for producing transgenic plants which show a sink tissue specific expression of a desired DNA sequence.

  • Potato tuber specific transcriptional regulation
    Patent number: 5436393
    Abstract: There is described a new DNA sequence of an expression cassette on which the potato tuber specific regulatory regions are localised as well as the transfer of this DNA sequence into the plant genome using agrobacteria as transfer micro-organisms. The DNA sequence contains a patatin gene with a patatin gene promoter. The transfer DNA sequence acts both for regulating endogenous as well as for preparation of heterologous products in crops.
