ABSTRACT:
By this invention, a plant cytoplasmic synthase protein is provided which is selected from the group consisting of a .beta.-ketoacyl-CoA synthase and a wax synthase, and is also free from intact cells of said plant and capable of catalyzing the production of very long chain fatty acid molecules. Also contemplated are constructs comprising the nucleic acid sequence and a heterologous DNA sequence not naturally associated with the plant cytoplasmic protein encoding sequences, and which provide for at least transcription of a plant cytoplasmic protein encoding sequence in a host cell. In this fashion very long chain fatty acid molecules may be produced in a host cell. Included are methods of modifying the composition of very long chain fatty acid molecules in a plant cell.
