Problems solved by technology

Food allergy is a serious nutritional problem in children and adults.
Soybean protein allergies pose a significant problem for large numbers of people because soybean protein is now a common constituent of many processed foods.
For sensitive individuals, avoiding soybean products is difficult and poses significant limitations in choosing processed and convenience foods.
Results have indicated that it may not be possible to eliminate P34 from the food supply by breeding with an improved germplasm base.

Alteration of Gly m 1 Content of Soybean Somatic Embryos

[0155] The ability to change the Gly m I content of soybean embryos by gene suppression was tested by preparing transgenic soybean somatic embryos and assaying the isoflavone levels. The entire insert from Genbank clone J05560 was amplified in a standard PCR reaction on a Perkin Elmer Applied Biosystems GeneAmp PCR System using Pfu polymerase (Stratagene) with the primers shown in SEQ ID NO:7 and SEQ ID NO:8:

5′-GAATTCGCGGCCGCATGGGTTTCCTTGTGT-3′[SEQ ID NO:7]5′-GAATTCGCGGCCGCTCAAAGAGGAGAGTGA-3′[SEQ ID NO:8]

[0156] The resulting fragment is bound by Not I sites in the primer sequences (underlined above) and contains a 5′ leader sequence, the coding region for Gly m 1, the untranslated 3′ region from SEQ ID NO: and a stretch of 18 A residues at the 3′ end. This fragment was digested with Not I and ligated to Not I-digested and phosphatase-treated pKS67. The plasmid pKS67 was prepared from pRB20 (U.S. Pat. No. 5,846,784) by replac...

Transformation of Somatic Soybean Embryo Cultures

[0157] Soybean embryogenic suspension cultures were maintained in 35 ml liquid media (SB55 or SBP6) on a rotary shaker, 150 rpm, at 28° C. with mixed fluorescent and incandescent lights on a 16:8 h day / night schedule. Cultures were subcultured every four weeks by inoculating approximately 35 mg of tissue into 35 ml of liquid medium.

The Phenotype of Transgenic Soybean Somatic Embryos is Predictive of Seed Phenotypes from Resultant Regenerated Plants

[0162] Mature somatic soybean embryos are a good model for zygotic embryos. While in the globular embryo state in liquid culture, somatic soybean embryos contain very low amounts of triacylglycerol or storage proteins typical of maturing, zygotic soybean embryos. At this developmental stage, the ratio of total triacylglyceride to total polar lipid (phospholipids and glycolipid) is about 1:4, as is typical of zygotic soybean embryos at the developmental stage from which the somatic embryo culture was initiated. At the globular stage as well, the mRNAs for the prominent seed proteins, α′ subunit of β-conglycinin, kunitz trypsin inhibitor 3, and seed lectin are essentially absent. Upon transfer to hormone-free media to allow differentiation to the maturing somatic embryo state, triacylglycerol becomes the most abundant lipid class. As well, mRNAs for α′-subunit of β-co...

Abstract

Hypoallergenic transgenic soybeans and recombinant expression constructs to lower soybean vacuolar protein, commonly know as P34, as well as other allergens are disclosed. Soybean protein products made from these hypoallergenic soybeans should be substantially free of the major soy allergen, P34, and, in addition, other minor soy allergens, such as, Gly m Bd 28K, alpha-subunit of beta-conglycinin, KSTI, Gly m2, Gly m IA, Gly m IB, rGLY m3 and glycinin G1.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] This invention relates to hypoallergenic transgenic soybeans and, in particular, to the preparation of recombinant expression constructs to lower soybean vacuolar protein, commonly know as P34, as well as other allergens such as Gly m IA, Gly m IB, rGLY m3 and Glycinin G1 (A1aB1b). Such constructs can be used to produce hypoallergenic transgenic soybean plants that in turn can be used to make hypoallergenic soybean products which can be used in a variety of food and feed applications. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Food allergy is a serious nutritional problem in children and adults. Basically, any food that contains protein has the potential to elicit an allergic reaction in a percentage of the human population. Most food-allergic reactions are attributable to cows' milk, eggs, fish, crustaceans, peanuts, soybeans, tree nuts and wheat. Sometimes referred to as “the Big Eight”, it is estimated that these foods or food groups account for more than 90...
