Expression of nitrogenase polypeptides in plant cells

The present invention relates to methods and means for producing nitrogenase polypeptides in the mitochondria of plant cells. The present disclosure provides plant cells that express one or more MTP-Nif fusions and/or translational NifD-NifK and NifE-NifN fusions. The present disclosure also provide...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention relates to methods and means for producing nitrogenase polypeptides in the mitochondria of plant cells. The present disclosure provides plant cells that express one or more MTP-Nif fusions and/or translational NifD-NifK and NifE-NifN fusions. The present disclosure also provides nucleic acid constructs encoding these fusions as well as expression constructs for expression and targeting of the fusions to the mitochondria of plant cells. The present disclosure also provides transgenic plants comprising the plant cells of the invention and products obtained therefrom.
