MONOTERPENE SYNTHASES FROM COMMON SAGE (SALVIA OFFICINALIS)

摘要

cDNAs encoding (+)-bornyl diphosphate synthase, 1-8-cineole synthase and (+)-sabinene synthase from common sage (Salvia officinalis) have been isolated and sequenced, and the corresponding amino acid sequences have been determined. Replicable recombinant cloning vehicles, host cells and the recombinant methods of making or enhanced expression of the enzymes in plants in order to increase the production of monoterpenoids or their products are provided.
