ABSTRACT:
An isolated and purified bifunctional protein from carrots with aspartokinase and homoserine activities which can be used to regulate the amino acid content of plants, in particular the lysine, homoserine, threonine, isoleucine and/or methionine content is disclosed. In addition, a DNA molecule with a DNA sequence coding for a homologous segment of the bifunctional carrot protein is also disclosed. In a method of regulating the amino acid content in a plant by bringing an effective amount of the bifunctional protein in contact with the plant is disclosed.
