Summary of Basic Genetic Modification
Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
fatB | Carthamus tinctorius | no functional enzyme produced (production of FATB enzymes or acyl-acyl carrier protein thioesterases is suppressed by RNA interference) | downregulates fatB gene |
fad2.2 | Carthamus tinctorius | no functional enzyme is produced (production of delta-12 desaturase enzyme is suppressed by RNA interference) | downregulation of fad2.2 gene |
hph * | Streptomyces sp. | hygromycin phosphotransferase | allows selection for resistance to the antibiotic hygromycin B |
* : Selection Marker/Reporter
