Research Abstract |
To establish transformation system of plant mitochondria, we aimed to produce genetically modified Agrobacterium so that it delivered T-DNA into mitochondria. To deliver T-DNA into mitochondria, we removed the nuclear localization signal sequence from VirD2, which usually played a role to deliver T-DNA into nucleus, and added a mitochondrial targeting signal sequence. Finally we produced Agrobacterium carrying modified VirD2 with mitochondrial targeting signal sequence.
