Title:
HAMMERHEAD RIBOZYME SPECIFIC FOR THE STEAROYL-ACP DESATURRASE OF DIFFERENT OLEAGINOUS PLANTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003002727
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A Hammerhead ribozyme is described, which is capable of modulating the expression of the gene encoding the stearoyl-ACP desaturase enzyme in different oleaginous plants, a vector containing the sequence which encodes said ribozyme and its use for the production of transgenic plants with an improved content of stearic acid.
