Progress towards commercialization of plastid transformation technology.
Tobacco chloroplasts are ready to be tested as a platform for the expression of recombinant proteins on a commercial scale. They hold the promise of reproducible yields of 5-25% of total soluble cellular protein in leaves and reliability has been achieved through refinement of an expression toolkit that includes vectors, recently developed expression cassettes and systems for marker gene remova...
متن کاملProgress Towards the Commercialization of PHA Bioplastics
Metabolix has applied advanced metabolic pathway engineering at the genome level to solve the manufacturing challenges for a range of PHA copolymers. Metabolix has built into the genome of the production host the ability to produce both the building blocks and polymerization capability for several different PHA copolymer families. The capability to produce many compositions with a single bacter...
متن کاملProgress towards omnidirectional transformation optics with lenses
We study, theoretically, omni-directional Euclidean transformation-optics (TO) devices comprising planar, lightray-direction changing, imaging, interfaces. We initially studied such devices in the case when the interfaces are homogeneous, showing that very general transformations between physical and electromagnetic space are possible. We are now studying the case of inhomogeneous interfaces. T...
متن کاملProgress of cereal transformation technology mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens
Monocotyledonous plants were believed to be not transformable by the soil bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens until two decades ago, although convenient protocols for infection of leaf disks and subsequent regeneration of transgenic plants had been well established in a number of dicotyledonous species by then. This belief was reinforced by the fact that monocotyledons are mostly outside the ho...
متن کاملRecent advances in plastid transformation
Plastid transformation offers a viable alternative to nuclear transformation because of its numerous advantages. It was against this backdrop that various groups of researchers have been exploiting this group of sub-cellular organelles, over the last two decades, for the genetic engineering of agronomic traits and metabolic pathways, as well as for molecular farming for the production of plant-...
