TL;DR: It is shown that Rht-B1/Rht-D1 and maize dwarf-8 (d8), are orthologues of the Arabidopsis Gibberellin Insensitive (GAI) gene, which encode proteins that resemble nuclear transcription factors and contain an SH2-like domain, indicating that phosphotyrosine may participate in gibberelli signalling.
Journal ArticleDOI
The production of recombinant pharmaceutical proteins in plants.
TL;DR: Molecular farming in plants has already proven to be a successful way of producing a range of technical proteins and the first plant-derived recombinant pharmaceutical proteins are now approaching commercial approval, and many more are expected to follow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stable Transformation of Soybean (Glycine Max) by Particle Acceleration
TL;DR: Experiments using this protocol have resulted in mature RO and R1 plants expressing the introduced gene(s), regarded as a major step in the practical application of genetic engineering to the useful modification of food-crop species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular farming in plants: host systems and expression technology.
TL;DR: Plants provide an inexpensive and convenient system for the large-scale production of valuable recombinant proteins and will only realize its huge potential if constraints are removed through rigorous and detailed science-based studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production of Transgenic Rice ( Oryza Sativa L.) Plants from Agronomically Important Indica and Japonica Varieties via Electric Discharge Particle Acceleration of Exogenous DNA into Immature Zygotic Embryos
TL;DR: It is shown that a wide variety of diverse cultivars can be transformed and it is possible to produce transgenic monocoty–ledonous plants by transforming scutellar tissue of immature embryos by using electric discharge particle acceleration.
