Latest Patents

One of Cho's latest patents is titled "Expression cassette and plasmid for strong constitutive gene expression and the use thereof." This invention provides isolated nucleic acid constructs that comprise a plant strong constitutive promoter operably linked to a heterologous nucleic acid encoding a desired polypeptide in transgenic plant tissues. The constructs are designed to confer the highest expression of desired polypeptides in both plant root and leaf tissues. By linking any chimeric gene to this construct, the resulting vector can be introduced into plant tissues, allowing for intentional modifications that enable plants to produce foreign substances. Another notable patent involves antiviral proteins, specifically amarandin 1 and 2, derived from Amaranthus viridis. This patent discloses DNA sequences encoding these antiviral proteins, along with expression vectors and transformed host cells.
