<p num="1"><br/><br/><br/>The present invention relates to genes, proteins and methods comprising <br/>molecules that alter amino acid levels. In one embodiment, the present <br/>invention relates to altering guanidino substrate hydrolysis activities in <br/>plants, arthropods and microorganisms using molecules within the arginase <br/>family and other molecules that alter an amino acid levels. In ones <br/>embodiment, the present invention relates to altering threonine substrate <br/>deamination and dehydration activities in plants, arthropods and <br/>microorganisms using molecules within the threonine deaminase family and other <br/>molecules that alter amino acid levels. In one embodiment, the present <br/>invention relates to using genes, proteins and methods comprising arginase or <br/>threonine deaminase for altering the pathophysiology of plants, arthropods and <br/>microorganisms. In a preferred embodiment, the present invention relates to <br/>altering guanidino substrate hydrolysis activity in plants, arthropods, and <br/>microorganisms using arginase. In another preferred embodiment, the invention <br/>relates to altering threonine substrated deamination and dehydration activity <br/>in plants, arthropods, and microorganisms using threonine deaminase. In some <br/>embodiments, the invention related to overexpression and increased activity of <br/>arginase, threonine deaminase and a proteinase inhibitor.<br/> |
