摘要:
Compositions and methods include genetically encoding and expressing a novel delta-9 desaturase in plant cells. In some embodiments, methods of expressing nucleic acids in a plant cell to take advantage of the delta-9 desaturase enzyme’s activity, such that the percent composition of saturated fatty acids in plant seeds is decreased and there is a concomitant increase in ω-7 fatty acids. In other embodiments, amino acid sequences have delta-9 desaturase activity. Methods can involve expression of delta-9 desaturase in plant cells, plant materials, and whole plants for the purpose of increasing the amount of unusual fatty acids in whole plants, plant seeds, and plant materials, for example, seeds.包括基因編碼一種新穎的δ-9去飽和酶及在植物細胞中表現之組成物與方法。在一些實施例中,在一植物細胞中表現核酸之方法係利用δ-9去飽和酶酵素的活性,藉此降低植物種子中的飽和脂肪酸之百分組成,及伴隨著ω-7脂肪酸之增加。在其他實施例中,胺基酸序列具有δ-9去飽和酶活性。為了增加全株植物、植物種子及植物材料例如種子中的特殊脂肪酸量之目的,該方法可涉及在植物細胞、植物材料及全株植物中表現δ-9去飽和酶。
