  • Polynucleotide encoding PPAT derived from jatropha and use thereof
    Patent number: 9255278
    Abstract: A PPAT polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 1 derived from Jatropha, a PPAT polynucleotide of SEQ ID NO: 2 and so on were found. By transforming Jatropha with these PPAT polynucleotides, it is possible to overexpress the PPAT polypeptide in comparison with a wild type, and biosynthesis of coenzyme A is promoted by these polypeptides, the metabolic function and viability of the transformed Jatropha are enhanced, and for example, stress resistance can be significantly improved.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 25, 2011
    Date of Patent: February 9, 2016
    Assignees: SUMITOMO ELECTRIC INDUSTRIES, LTD., OSAKA UNIVERSITY
    Inventors: Kiichi Fukui, Joyce Cartagena, Naoki Wada, Tsutomu Kohinata, Yasuhisa Yushio, Naoki Ikeguchi, Satoshi Tabata
