发明名称 Genes and proteins for alkanoyl-CoA synthesis
摘要 Polypeptides having alkanoyl-CoA activity have been identified and characterized, as have nucleic acids encoding these polypeptides. Expression or over-expression of the nucleic acids alters levels of cannabinoid compounds in organisms. The polypeptides may be used in vivo or in vitro to produce cannabinoid compounds.

主权项 1. A process of decreasing levels of a cannabinoid compound in a cannabis plant, cannabis cell or cannabis tissue, the process comprising using a RNAi nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence complementary to a portion of SEQ ID NO: 1 or SEQ ID NO: 3, to silence in the cannabis plant, cannabis cell or cannabis tissue a gene that encodes an enzyme that catalyzes synthesis of an alkanoyl-CoA, in comparison to a similar variety of organism, cell or tissue grown under similar conditions but without the use of the nucleic acid molecule for silencing.
