Patent ID: 7105724

Claim:
A DNA construct comprising: a) a DNA sequence encoding a dicamba-degrading oxygenase comprising an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:3, wherein the dicamba-degrading oxygenase catalyzes the oxidation of dicamba to 3,6-dichlorsalicylic acid (DCSA); b) a DNA sequence encoding a ferredoxin, wherein said ferredoxin comprises an amino acid sequence that is at least about 65% identical to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:5, wherein the ferredoxin is an electron shuttle; and c) a DNA sequence encoding a reductase, wherein said reductase comprises an amino acid sequence that is at least about 85% identical to an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO:7 and SEQ ID NO:9, wherein said reductase catalyzes the reduction of a protein in the presence of NADH; wherein each of said DNA sequences of (a)–(c) is operatively linked to an expression control sequence.
