New DNA encoding ABC transporters, useful e.g. for promoting growth of plants, particularly legumes on soil polluted with xenobiotics which are normally harmful to the plants

摘要

DNA sequences (I) that express products having the biological function of ABC transporters, are new. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) recombinant expression vectors containing (I); (2) prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells transformed or transfected with (I) or the vector of (a); (3) production of ABC transporters by culturing cells of (b); (4) expression products (II) of (I), and synthetic proteins or peptides with the same sequences; (5) mono- or poly-clonal antibodies (Ab) specific for (II); (6) hybridoma cells that produce monoclonal Ab; and (7) transgenic plants that contain cells of (b).
