The invention provides phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) sequences, and constructs
and methods related thereto. In one aspect, Lactuca sativa PAL sequences
are isolated and characterized. The invention also provides novel sequences associated
with PAL polynucleotide sequences and methods using recombinant techniques to express
proteins from such sequences. In addition, methods are provided for using such
sequences to transform host cells and alter wound induced gene activity or expression.
