Abstract From the Canadian patent

This invention relates to plant thioesterase specifically plant acyl-ACP thioesterases having substantial activity on palmitoyl-ACP substrates. DNA constructs useful for the expression of a plant palmitoyl-ACP thioesterase in a plant seed cell are described. Such constructs will contain a DNA sequence encoding the plant palmitoyl-ACP thioesterase of interest under the control of regulatory elements capable of preferentially directing the expression of the plant palmitoyl-ACP thioesterase in seed tissue as compared with other plant tissues, when such a construct is expressed in a transgenic plant. This invention also relates to methods of using a DNA sequence encoding a plant palmitoyl-ACP …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed November 10, 1994. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended November 10, 2014.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 10, 2016.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
