  • Protein expression in plants
    Patent number: 10472644
    Abstract: The present invention relates to protein expression in plants, particularly the large-scale production of recombinant polypeptides in whole Nicotiana tabacum plants. The use of preselected combination of N. tabacum varieties and Agrobacterium strains, optionally including one or more improvements to the transient expression-based methods of the invention, enables the production of large quantities of a heterologous polypeptides economically and in a short period of time.
