August 6th, 2008
According to recent research from the United States, "We have developed a fully contained system for expressing recombinant proteins that is based on clonal root cultures and episomal expression vectors. Clonal root lines expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) or human growth hormone were generated from Nicotiana benthamiana leaves infected with the tobacco mosaic virus-based vector 30B after exposure to Agrobacterium rhizogenes." "These lines accumulated GFP at over 50 mg per kg fresh tissue, a level that is comparable with other plant production systems in early stage development. Accumulation of both hGH and GFP in the clonal root lines was sustained over a...
