Abstract:
An isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a promoter operably linked to a nucleic acid sequence in antisense orientation thereto, wherein the nucleic acid sequence is selected from the group consisting of:(a) a nucleic acid sequence, wherein the nucleic acid sequence encodes a protein comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2; (b) a nucleic acid sequence, wherein the nucleic acid sequence is SEQ ID NO: 1; (c) a nucleic acid sequence, wherein the nucleic acid sequence has at least 80% sequence identity to the coding region of SEQ ID NO: 1; and (d) a part of the nucleic acid sequence of (a)-(c), wherein the part is sufficient to reduce the expression of a debranching enzyme in a plant cell when introduced in antisenise orientation with respect to said promoter.
