Moss genes from physcomitrella patens encoding proteins involved in the synthesis of amino acids, vitamins, cofactors, nucleotides and nucleosides

摘要

Isolated nucleic acid molecules, designated MP protein nucleic acid molecules, which encode novel MP proteins from e.g. Phycomitrella patens are described. The invention also provides antisense nucleic acid molecules, recombinant expression vectors containing MP protein nucleic acid molecules, and host cells into which the expression vectors have been introduced. The invention still further provides isolated MP proteins, mutated MP proteins, fusion proteins, antigenic peptides and methods for the improvement of production of a desired compound from transformed cells, organisms or plants based on genetic engineering of MP protein genes in these organisms.
