Basic Genetic Modification
Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
aad-12 | Delftia acidovorans | aryloxyalkanoate di-oxygenase 12 (AAD-12) protein | catalyzes the side chain degradation of 2,4-D herbicide |
2mepsps | Zea mays | 5-enolpyruvyl shikimate-3-phosphate synthase enzyme (double mutant version) | decreases binding affinity for glyphosate, thereby increasing tolerance to glyphosate herbicide |
pat | Streptomyces viridochromogenes | phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase (PAT) enzyme | eliminates herbicidal activity of glufosinate (phosphinothricin) herbicides by acetylation |
cry1Ac | Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. Kurstaki strain HD73 | Cry1Ac delta-endotoxin | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
cry1F | Bacillus thuringiensis var. aizawai | Cry1F delta-endotoxin | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |

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.
