Patent ID: 7176349

Claim:
An isolated nucleotide molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of: (a) the nucleotide sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1; (b) a nucleotide sequence encoding the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2; (c) a nucleotide sequence encoding a protein comprising 2-enoyl-CoA hydratase activity, wherein said nucleotide sequence has at least 90% sequence identity to the nucleotide sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1; (d) the antisense nucleotide sequence complementary to the nucleotide sequence of (a), (b) or (c); and (e) a nucleotide sequence encoding a protein comprising 2-enoyl-CoA hydratase activity, wherein said nucleotide sequence hybridizes under high stringency conditions to the nucleotide sequence of (a); wherein high stringency conditions are hybridization in 50% formamide, 1M NaCl, 1% SDS at 37° C., and a wash in 0.1×SSC at 60 to 65° C.
