Title:
METHOD FOR PRODUCING TRANS-POLYISOPRENOID, VECTOR, TRANSGENIC PLANT, METHOD FOR PRODUCING PNEUMATIC TIRE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING RUBBER PRODUCT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/116726
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a trans-polyisoprenoid by which the productivity of a trans-rubber can be increased. The present invention pertains to: a method for producing a trans-polyisoprenoid in vitro, said method comprising using a gene encoding a protein of the trans-prenyltransferase (tPT) family and utilizing rubber particles to which the protein encoded by the gene is bound; or a method for producing a trans-polyisoprenoid, said method comprising introducing into a plant a vector, which comprises a gene encoding a tPT family protein bound to a promoter having a promoter activity of laticifer-specific gene expression, and thus laticifer-specifically expressing the protein encoded by the gene.
