Abstract
Yalf tomato plants have been transformed with a gene for thaumatin II from Thaumatococcus daniellii Benth. The nucleotide sequence for thaumatin II cDNA was cloned in the pBI121 vector under the control of the CaMV 35S promoter of cauliflower mosaic virus. Expression of the thaumatin II gene was detected in all of the studied transgenic lines. A quantitative estimation of the thaumatin II accumulation in fruits was performed by ELISA. The highest content of thaumatin in transgenic tomato fruits (line 91) was 46.4 ± 10.5 μg/mg of total soluble protein (4.6%). In the other studied lines, the thaumatin content ranged from 17.6 ± 6.1 to 41.3 ± 12.3 μg/mg of total soluble protein (1.8–4.1%). The fruits of transgenic plants had a well-defined sweet taste with a long aftertaste typical of thaumatin II. Transgenic tomato lines with high expression levels can be potentially used as producers of thaumatin for the food and pharmaceutical industries.
