Patent

CA 2262429

Lactoferricin has been found to have antifungal activity against plant pathogens. Genetic constructs comprising a synthetic gene for bovine lactoferricin are prepared and used to provide transgenic disease-resistant plants. A method of transforming plants to express lactoferricin which is expressed in plants to provide disease resistance to those plants is also described.

D'après cette invention, il a été prouvé que la lactoferricine possède une activité antifongique à l'encontre de pathogènes de plantes. Des constructions génétiques, qui comprennent un gène synthétique pour la lactoferricine bovine, ont été préparées et utilisées afin d'obtenir des plantes transgéniques résistant aux maladies. Cette invention concerne également un procédé de transformation des plantes permettant d'exprimer la lactoferricine. Lorsqu'elle est exprimée dans des plantes, la lactoferricine leur confère une résistance aux maladies.
