  • Immobilized proteins in cotton fiber
    Patent number: 5474925
    Abstract: Transgenic cotton plants have been created which expressed an immobilized protein in the cotton fiber cells. The cotton fiber can be recovered from such transgenic cotton plants and then used as a substrate for fixing immobilized protein for use in industrial or laboratory processes. Using an enzyme expressed inside cotton fiber, it is possible to fabricate a convenient reaction column by simply packing the cotton fiber carrying the enzyme into a column and passing substrate therethrough.
