Basic Genetic Modification

Gene Introduced	Gene Source	Product	Function
cry1Ab	Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki	Cry1Ab delta-endotoxin	confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining
pat	Streptomyces viridochromogenes	phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase (PAT) enzyme	eliminates herbicidal activity of glufosinate (phosphinothricin) herbicides by acetylation
mcry3A	synthetic form of cry3A gene from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. tenebrionis	modified Cry3A delta-endotoxin	confers resistance to coleopteran insects particularly corn rootworm pests by selectively damaging their midgut lining
pmi *	Escherichia coli	Phosphomannose Isomerase (PMI) enzyme	metabolizes mannose and allows positive selection for recovery of transformed plants
mepsps	Zea mays	modified 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) enzyme	confers tolerance to glyphosate herbicides
amy797E	synthetic gene derived from Thermococcales spp.	thermostable alpha-amylase enzyme	enhances bioethanol production by increasing the thermostability of amylase used in degrading starch

Regulatory and Biosafety Information

The GM Approval Database, or GMAD, is one of ISAAA’s unique features that compiles all the available information about biotech/GM crops that have been approved for planting and importation for food and feed, and commercialization. ISAAA sources out the information from publicly available decision documents per country, Biosafety Clearing Houses and peer-reviewed scholarly articles to maintain the credibility of the database. Your contribution can help expand and maintain the GMAD and make useful information more available to researchers, students, and the general public. You can help by donating as little as $10.
