Summary of Basic Genetic Modification
Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
2mepsps | Zea mays | 5-enolpyruvyl shikimate-3-phosphate synthase enzyme (double mutant version) | decreases binding affinity for glyphosate, thereby increasing tolerance to glyphosate herbicide |
cry1Ab | Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki | Cry1Ab delta-endotoxin | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
cry2Ae | Bacillus thuringiensis subsp Dakota | Cry2Ae delta-endotoxin | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
bar | Streptomyces hygroscopicus | phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase (PAT) enzyme | eliminates herbicidal activity of glufosinate (phosphinothricin) herbicides by acetylation |
