Title: Shuzhen Ping: Innovator in Agricultural Biotechnology
Introduction
Shuzhen Ping is a prominent inventor based in Beijing, China. He has made significant contributions to the field of agricultural biotechnology, particularly in developing genetically modified plants with enhanced resistance to herbicides and improved tolerance to environmental stressors.
Latest Patents
Shuzhen Ping holds 2 patents that showcase his innovative work. His latest patents include:
1. **EPSP synthase with high glyphosate resistance and its encoded sequence** - This patent discloses an EPSP synthase (5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase) that exhibits high glyphosate resistance. The nucleotide sequence encoding this synthase shows low homology with previously reported EPSP synthases. Experimental confirmation has demonstrated that transgenic plants expressing this gene exhibit increased resistance to glyphosate.
2. **Genes for improving salt tolerance and drought tolerance of plants and the uses thereof** - This patent describes two genes, one comprising the nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1 and another gene with the nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2, which has been artificially synthesized according to plant-preferred codons. Both genes encode a protein with the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:3. The patent also provides recombinant vectors containing each gene and host cells transformed with these vectors. Transgenic plants expressing the gene with SEQ ID NO:2 have shown improved salt and drought tolerance.
