ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides methods for increasing the level of preselected amino acids in seeds of plants, thereby enhancing the nutritional value of the seeds, by genetic modification. The present invention is particularly useful in increasing the methionine, lysine, and/or cysteine content in seeds of plants. Also provided, are isolated endogenous DNA molecules which encode soybean albumins. The present invention also provides an antibody which is capable of specifically binding to soybean albumins. The present invention further provides methods for isolating and purifying 2S albumins.
