Abstract
By this invention, further properties and uses of plant medium-chain thioesterases are provided. In a first embodiment, this invention relates to plant seed and oil derived from that seed, which normally do not contain laurate, but now are found to contain laurate. In yet a different embodiment, this invention relates to a particular medium-chain thioesterase sequence, the Bay medium-chain thioesterase DNA sequence and to DNA constructs for the expression of this enzyme in a host cell. Other aspects of this invention relate to methods for using a plant medium-chain thioesterase. Expression of a plant medium-chain thioesterase in a bacterial cell to produce medium-chain fatty acids is provided. Methods to produce an unsaturated medium-chain thioesterase by the use of a plant medium-chain thioesterase are also described herein.
