For these reasons, it is common to produce hundreds to thousands of different events and screen those events for a single event that has desired transgene expression levels and patterns for commercial purposes. An event that has desired levels or patterns of transgene expression is useful for introgressing the transgene into other genetic backgrounds by sexual outcrossing using conventional breeding methods. Progeny of such crosses maintain the transgene expression characteristics of the original transformant. This strategy is used to ensure reliable gene expression in a number of varieties that are well adapted to local growing conditions.

  • percentage of sequence identity is used in reference to proteins it is recognized that residue positions which are not identical often differ by conservative amino acid substitutions, where amino acid residues are substituted for other amino acid residues with similar chemical properties (e.g., charge or hydrophobicity) and therefore do not change the functional properties of the molecule.
  • sequences differ in conservative substitutions the percent sequence identity may be adjusted upwards to correct for the conservative nature of the substitution.
  • Sequences that differ by such conservative substitutions are said to have "sequence similarity" or "similarity”. Means for making this adjustment are well known to those of skill in the art. Typically this involves scoring a conservative substitution as a partial rather than a full mismatch, thereby increasing the percentage sequence identity. Thus, for example, where an identical amino acid is given a score of 1 and a non-conservative substitution is given a score of zero, a conservative substitution is given a score between zero and 1. The scoring of conservative substitutions is calculated, e.g., as implemented in the program PC/GENE (Intelligenetics, Mountain View, California).

The percentage is calculated by determining the number of positions at which the identical nucleic acid base or amino acid residue occurs in both sequences to yield the number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the window of comparison and multiplying the result by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence identity.

  • Another way to verify the expression of the insert in DP-061061-7 Brassica plants is to evaluate the transformed plants' tolerance to glyphosate. Multigenerational stability and within-generation segregation of the herbicide tolerant trait conferred by expression of the GAT4621 enzyme will be confirmed using a functional assay for herbicide tolerance.

PCR amplification from the insert and border sequences confirms that the border regions are of Brassica origin and that the junction regions can be used for identification of DP-061061- 7 Brassica. Overall, characterization of the insert and genomic border sequences, along with Southern blot data, indicate a single insertion of the DNA fragment present in the Brassica genome. Various molecular techniques are then used to specifically characterize the integration site.
  • flanking genomic border regions are cloned and sequenced using the GenomeWalker and inverse PCR methods. Using information from the flanking border sequence, PCR is performed on DP-061061-7 genomic DNA and unmodified control genomic DNA.
