Summary of Basic Genetic Modification
Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
cry3A | Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. tenebrionis | cry3A delta endotoxin | confers resistance to coleopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
nptII * | Escherichia coli Tn5 transposon | neomycin phosphotransferase II enzyme | allows transformed plants to metabolize neomycin and kanamycin antibiotics during selection |
aad * | Escherichia coli | 3''(9)-O-aminoglycoside adenylyltransferase enzyme | allows selection for resistance to aminoglycoside antibiotics such as spectinomycin and streptomycin |
pvy_cp | Potato Virus Y (PVY) | coat protein of the potato virus Y (PVY) | confers resistance to potato virus Y (PVY) through "pathogen-derived resistance" mechanism |
