agriculture
constitutive expression in Zea mays leads to transgenic kernels containing up to 3-times as much gamma-tocopherol as their wild type counterparts whereas other tocopherol isomers remain undetectable
agriculture
seed-specific expression of 2-methyl-6-phytylbenzoquinol methyltransferase VTE3 in transgenic soybean reduces seed delta-tocopherol from 20 to 2%. When VTE3 is coexpressed with VTE4, i.e. gamma-tocopherol methyltransferase, in soybean, the seed accumulates to more than 95% alpha-tocopherol, from the normal 10%, resulting in a greater than eightfold increase of alpha-tocopherol and an up to fivefold increase in seed vitamin E activity
