Theobromine synthase polypeptide of coffee plant and the gene encoding said polypeptide

   
   

A theobromine gene derived from Coffea arabica and the polypeptide it encodes are disclosed. The disclosed polypeptide catalyzes biosynthesis of theobromine using 7-methylxanthine as the substrate. Also disclosed are plants transformed with the theobromine gene as to increase or inhibit biosynthesis of theobromine, methods of producing such plants, and seeds obtained from such plants. Caffeineless coffee may be obtained from the disclosed plants, as theobromine synthase participates in the biosynthesis of caffeine.

Ген теобромина выведенный от arabica Coffea и полипептида, котор он шифрует показано. Показанный полипептид катализирует биосинтез теобромина использующ 7-methylxanthine как субстрат. Также показаны заводы преобразованные с геном теобромина о увеличении или блокируют биосинтез теобромина, методы производить такие заводы, и полученные семена от таких заводов. Кофеий Caffeineless может быть получен от показанных заводов, по мере того как synthase теобромина участвует в биосинтезе кофеина.
