Abstract
This invention concerns the construction of transgenic soybean lines wherein the expression of genes encoding seed storage proteins are modulated to effect a change in seed storage protein profile of transgenic plants. Modification of the seed storage protein profile can result in the production of novel soy protein products with unique and valuable functional characteristics.
