CHIMERIC ISOPRENOIDSYNTHASES PROCESS OF THEIR PREPARATION

摘要

Disclosed is a nucleic acid molecule encoding a chimeric synthase polypeptide including a first isoprenoid synthase joined to a second domain from a second, different isoprenoid synthase, whereby the chimeric isoprenoid synthase is capable of catalyzing the production of isoprenoid reaction products that are not produced in the absence of the second domain of the second, heterologous isoprenoid synthase. Furthermore, cells and transgenic plants comprising said nucleic acid molecule are described. Moreover, a chimeric isoprenoid synthase polypeptide and a method for producing a chimeric isoprenoid synthase polypeptide are provided..
