Basic Genetic Modification
Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
cp4 epsps (aroA:CP4) | Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain CP4 | herbicide tolerant form of 5-enolpyruvulshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) enzyme | decreases binding affinity for glyphosate, thereby conferring increased tolerance to glyphosate herbicide |
cry1A.2 | Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) | Cry1A.2 protein | contains domain I of Cry1Ah, domain II of Cry1Ac, domain III of Cry1Ca and protoxin domain of Cry1Ac. Specific domain recombination can produce higher insecticidal activity against some key lepidopteran pests and reduce the probability of resistant insect populations. |
cry1Ac | Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. Kurstaki strain HD73 | Cry1Ac delta-endotoxin | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
cry1B.2 | Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) | Cry1B.2 protein | contains domain I and domain II of Cry1Be2, domain III of Cry1Ka, and the protoxin domain of Cry1Ab3. Specific domain recombination can produce higher insecticidal activity against some key lepidopteran pests and reduce the probability of resistant insect populations. |
cry2Ab2 | Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kumamotoensis | Cry2Ab delta-endotoxin | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
cry1A.105 | Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kumamotoensis | Cry1A.105 protein which comprises the Cry1Ab, Cry1F and Cry1Ac proteins | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
dmo | Stenotrophomonas maltophilia strain DI-6 | dicamba mono-oxygenase enzyme | confers tolerance to the herbicide dicamba (2-methoxy-3,6-dichlorobenzoic acid) by using dicamba as substrate in an enzymatic reaction |
ft_t | Sphingobium herbicidovorans | 2,4-D and FOPs dioxygenase protein (FT_T) | provides tolerance to 2,4-D and FOPs herbicides |
pat | Streptomyces viridochromogenes | phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase (PAT) enzyme | eliminates herbicidal activity of glufosinate (phosphinothricin) herbicides by acetylation |
tdo | Oryza sativa | triketone dioxygenase (TDO) protein | confers tolerance to mesotrione herbicides |

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.
