Title:
METHOD OF STABILIZING, AND BLUING, OF ANTHOCYANIN PIGMENT USING GENE CODING FOR TRANSFERASE OF AROMATIC ACYL TO 3’-POSITION OF ANTHOCYANIN
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2006/046780
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A method of acylating the 3’-position of anthocyanin by the use of a transferase of an aromatic acyl to the 3’-position sugar of anthocyanin, or a gene coding for the transferase.
