Gene-edited tomatoes could be a new source of vitamin D
23.5.2022: Tomatoes gene-edited to produce vitamin D, the sunshine vitamin, could be a simple and sustainable innovation to address a global health problem. Researchers used gene editing to turn off a specific molecule in the plant's genome which increased provitamin D3 in both the fruit and leaves of tomato plants. It was then converted to vitamin D3 through exposure to UVB light. Vitamin D is created in our bodies after skin's exposure to UVB light, but the major source is food.
