Abstract

This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a factor involved in gene expression. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the factor involved in gene expression, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the factor involved in gene expression in a transformed host cell.
