PEPTIDE HAVING FUNCTION TO SUPPRESS TRANSCRIPTION OF GENE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a peptide derived from a higher plant having a function to bond to a DNA and suppress the transcription of gene, a gene coding for the peptide, a recombinant vector containing the gene and a transformant containing the recombinant vector. SOLUTION: This invention relates to a peptide composed of the amino acid sequence (a) expressed by the sequence No.1 (refer to the specification) and a peptide composed of the amino acid sequence (a) wherein one or plural amino acids are deleted, substituted or incorporated provided that the peptide has a function to suppress the transcription of the gene.
