392 results about "Secondary metabolism" patented technology

Methods for improving the production of a secondary metabolite by a fungus by increasing the yield or productivity of the secondary metabolite produced by the fungus are described. The methods include increasing the expression of LYS14, for example, by transforming a cell with a nucleic acid molecule encoding LYS14.

A method for increasing the content of taxol in enqlish yew features that the solution of coronary bacteruim extract onto the stem and leaves of young enqlish yew for regulating its secondary metabolism system and increasing the content of taxol.

The invention discloses a method for hydroponic breeding of huperzine serrate and induced improvement to huperzine a of the huperzine serrate. According to the method, wild naturalized huperzine-serrate branches with stem tips are used as cuttings, and rapid hydroponic breeding of the huperzine serrate is achieved in a nutrient solution containing hormones and precursor substances with a certain ratio; compared with conventional soil cutting, the method realizes that rooting time is short, the breeding coefficient is large, and the rooting percentage is as high as 98%. The precursor substances enable the huperzine a content of the hydroponic huperzine serrate to be increased by 70% compared with wild plants; the leaf surfaces or / and the roots of the plants are sprinkled with elicitors in a certain concentration, so that a secondary metabolism system of the huperzine serrate is regulated, the huperzine a content of the hydroponic huperzine serrate is increased 1.3-1.6 times, the yield of the huperzine a is increased, and the situation of shortage of huperzine-serrate resources is alleviated to a certain degree. Besides, the method achieves low production cost and a short cultivation period, is not restricted by the natural environment and climate, and has broad application prospects and high popularization value.

This invention is a method of minimizing the variation of cell growth and production through homogeneous cell line development. To be more specific, it is the method of isolating and proliferating single cell clone from the procambium or cambium to promote the stability of the plant-derived biologically active substances production by solving the problems of decrease in cell growth and the productivity during the long term culture. Key words: Procambium or cambium, single cell clone, cell aggregation, dedifferentiation, cryoperservation, variability.
