NRP-UEA 2015

At NRP-UEA, we aimed to produce a prebiotic to prevent colon cancer. To do this, we attempted to acylate/butrylate starch in plants. We transformed our constructs into Agrobacterium tumefaciens and then infiltrated it into our plants.This expression construct was used to confirm the localisation of our acylation enzymes to the chloroplast, as this is where starch is produced.
