Summary of Basic Genetic Modification
Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
Pj.D6D | Primula juliae | delta 6 desaturase protein | desaturates certain endogenous fatty acids resulting in the production of stearidonic acid (SDA), an omega-3 fatty acid |
Nc.Fad3 | Neurospora crassa | delta 15 desaturase protein | desaturates certain endogenous fatty acids resulting in the production of stearidonic acid (SDA), an omega-3 fatty acid |
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 |
