  • DNA Encoding a Plant Lipase, Transgenic Plants and a Method for Controlling Senescence in Plants
    Publication number: 20130184449
    Abstract: Regulation of expression of senescence in plants is achieved by integration of a gene or gene fragment encoding senescence-induced lipase into the plant genome in antisense orientation. The carnation and Arabidopsis genes encoding senescence-induced lipase are identified and the nucleotide sequences are used to modify senescence in transgenic plants.
    Type: Application
    Filed: July 18, 2012
    Publication date: July 18, 2013
    Inventors: John E. THOMPSON, Tzann-Wei Wang, Katalin Hudak, Yuwen Hong

  • Gene encoding invasion protein of campylobacter species
    Patent number: 6087105
    Abstract: A protein associated with adherence and invasion of Campylobacter spp. including C. jejuni and C. coli is provided. Methods are disclosed for detecting Campylobacter spp. including C. jejuni and C. coli in a biological sample by determining the presence of the protein or a nucleic acid molecule encoding the protein in the sample. Compositions for treatment of infections diseases and vaccines are also described.
