Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
full length and truncated cDNA expression constructs of the phytoene synthase gene from tomato ligated into a pUC8 cloning vector, expression in Escherichia coli carrying Erwinia uredovora geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase gene Solanum lycopersicum

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information the size of the transit peptide of phytoene synthase from ripe fruit is approximatyle 9000 Da, corresponding to about 80 amino acid residues. Removal of further N-terminal amino acids up to 114 from the enzyme, to yield a protein of apparent molecular mass 3400 Da, increases its catalytic activity in Escherichia coli Solanum lycopersicum
