Summary of 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 |
