Application

Application Comment Organism
food industry root-specific expression of cassava HNL not only increases total root protein levels 3fold approaching the target values for a nutritionally balanced meal but accelerates cyanogenesis during food processing resulting in a safer and more nutritious food product Manihot esculenta

Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Manihot esculenta the overexpression of HNL driven by the patatin (root-specific) promoter results in a 2-20fold increase in relative mRNA expression in roots when compared with wild type, and a 5-6fold increase in expression when compared with CaMV 35S HNL transgenic lines up
