The present invention is in the field of plant genetics and biochemistry. More specifically, the present invention relates to genes and polypeptides associated with the tocopherol biosynthesis pathway, namely those encoding homogentisate prenyl transferase activity, and uses thereof. In particular, the sequence of the HPT2 gene from Arabidopsis thaliana is disclosed for expression in any plant species to increase the levels of tocopherol.

Homogentisate prenyl transferase gene (HPT2) from arabidopsis and uses thereof

A topical composition for anti-aging treatment of the skin includes water soluble extract of Uncaria species, Arabidopsis thaliana extract, lipoic acid, dimethylethanolamine, tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, dimethyl sulfoxide, Glycyrrhiza Glabra(Licorice) root extract, methylsulfonylmethane, phytosterols, D-ribose, tocotrienol, tocopherol, glucosamine hydrochloride, Pisum sativum extract; Bambusa vulgaris extract, and a dermatologically acceptable liposomal delivery medium. Further disclosed is a method using the topical composition for anti-aging skin treatment utilizing DNA repair in both the nucleus and the mitochondria. The topical composition can be applied on the skin of a person daily, and can also be applied in a dermal infusion treatment, with or without micro-dermal abrasion or skin suction. Topical application of the composition achieves effective reduction of pigmentation spots and degree of winkles, and improvement of skin color tone.

Topical composition for anti-aging skin treatment using dual DNA repair mechanism and method of use

A topical composition for anti-aging and anti-UV damage treatment of the skin includes water soluble extract of Uncaria species, Arabidopsis thaliana extract, alpha lipoic acid, dimethylethanolamine, tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, dimethyl sulfoxide, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (licorice) root extract, methylsulfonylmethane, phytosterols, D-ribose, tocotrienol, tocopherol, glucosamine hydrochloride, Pisum sativum extract; silicates of sodium, magnesium and aluminum, and a dermatologically acceptable liposomal delivery medium. The composition is useful in a method using it for anti-aging skin treatment effecting DNA repair in both the nucleus and the mitochondria. The topical composition can be applied on the skin of a person daily, and can also be applied in a dermal infusion treatment, with or without micro-dermal abrasion or skin suction. Topical application of the composition achieves effective reduction of pigmentation spots, degree of winkles, and improvement of skin color, tone and turgidity, particularly of the eyelid and facial areas.
