  • Publication number: 20100275326
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an engineered plant expression element. More specifically the present invention provides polynucleotide molecules and constructs, wherein said polynucleotide molecules comprise a promoter from a dicotyledonous species in which the native dicotyledonous TATA box to TSS region is substituted with a TATA box to TSS region of a promoter from a viral or monocotyledonous source, resulting in a chimeric promoter, or promoter element, which when operably linked to a transcribable polynucleotide molecule expresses said transcribable polynucleotide molecule in a monocotyledonous plant. The present invention also relates to a vector, a cell, and a transgenic plant containing the chimeric promoter operably linked to a transcribable molecule, including a reporter gene or a gene of agronomic interest.

  • Patent number: 7750207
    Abstract: The present invention provides gene regulatory element polynucleotide molecules, including a promoter and a leader, identified from the ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase activase (RUA) Zea mays gene, useful for expressing transgenes in plants. The invention further discloses compositions, polynucleotide constructs, transformed host cells, transgenic plants and seeds comprising the Zea mays gene regulatory molecules, and methods for preparing and using the same.

  • Publication number: 20100107283
    Abstract: The present invention provides chimeric regulatory elements constructed from gene regulatory element polynucleotide molecules isolated from the Zea mays genes fructose 1-6 bisphosphate aldolase (FDA), pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK), or ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase activase (RUA), useful for expressing transgenes in plants. The invention further discloses compositions, polynucleotide constructs, transformed host cells, transgenic plants and seeds comprising the chimeric gene regulatory molecules, and methods for preparing and using the same.
