Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a plant gene promoter and its application, in particular to a plant gene promoter derived from cotton and its application in plant quality improvement. Background technique
[0002] Glycosyltransferases (GTs) catalyze the attachment of sugar groups to different acceptor molecules. Based on their sequence similarity, catalytic specificity, conserved sequence and donor sugar species, these enzymes are divided into different families ( T.Vogt, P.Jones, Glycosyltransferases in plant natural products synthesis: characterization of a supergene family, Trends Plant Sci.5(2000) 380-386; W.G.T.Willats, L.McCartney, W.Mackie, J.P.Knox, Pectin: cellbiology and prospects for functional analysis. Plant Mol. Biol. 47(2001) 9-27.). In plants, glycosyltransferases can convert the products of photosynthesis into disaccharides, oligosaccharides, polysaccharides and other small sugar molecules, so they play an important role in the devel...
