TLDR
In this article, the authors present nucleic acids and nucleic acid fragments encoding amino acid sequences for flavonoid biosynthetic enzymes in plants, and the use thereof for the modification of flavonoids biosynthesis in plants.Abstract:
Nucleic acids and nucleic acid fragments encoding amino acid sequences for flavonoid biosynthetic enzymes in plants, and the use thereof for the modification of flavonoid biosynthesis in plants.More particularly, the flavonoid biosynthetic enzyme is selected from the group consisting of chalcone isomerase (CHI), chalcone synthase (CHS), chalcone reductase (CHR), dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (DFR), leucoanthocyanidin reductase (LCR), flavonoid 3', 5' hydrolase (F3'5'H), flavanone 3-hydroxylase (F3H), flavonoid 3'-hydroxylase (F3'H), phenylalanine ammonia-olyase (PAL) and vestitone reductase (VR), and functionally active fragments and variants thereof (62) Divided Out of 531985read more

Rapid production of full-length cDNAs from rare transcripts: amplification using a single gene-specific oligonucleotide primer
TL;DR: The efficacy of this cDNA cloning strategy was demonstrated by isolating cDNA clones of mRNA from int-2, a mouse gene that expresses four different transcripts at low abundance, the longest of which is approximately 2.9 kilobases.

Identification of protein coding regions by database similarity search.
TL;DR: The computer program BLASTX performed conceptual translation of a nucleotide query sequence followed by a protein database search in one programmatic step and was characterized as appropriate for use in moderate and large scale sequencing projects at the earliest opportunity, when the data are most prone to containing errors.

Sequence-determined dna fragments and corresponding polypeptides encoded thereby
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method to encode portions of the genome of a plant, and polypeptides encoded thereby, which are useful for expressing a gene product, either as a promoter or as a structural gene or as an UTR or as 3' termination sequence.
