Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9964564A1] A novel beta -galactosidase gene family and DNA sequences derived from the cloning of cDNAs encoding products of these genes are provided, as exemplified by a beta -galactosidase II protein which is encoded by a cDNA clone, pZBG2-1-4. A method for modifying cell wall metabolism which involves modifying the activity of at least one beta -galactosidase, and thus modifying the quality of the fruit is also provided. Also provided by the present invention is a DNA construct including some or all of a beta -galactosidase DNA sequence under control of a transcriptional initiation region operative in plants, so that the construct can generate RNA and, optionally, beta -galactosidase polypeptide in plant cells. The present invention also relates to recombinant vectors, which include the isolated nucleic acid molecules of the present invention, and to host cells containing the recombinant vectors, as well as to methods of making such vectors and host cells and for using them for production of beta -galactosidase polypeptides or peptides by recombinant techniques. The present invention also provides plant cells containing DNA constructs of the present invention; plants derived therefrom having modified beta -galactosidase gene expression; and seeds produced from such plants.
