The first synthesis of a pharmaceutically relevant protein was human growth hormone in transgenic tobacco plants in 1986 In 1989 the first antibody was expressed in tobacco which showed that plants could assemble complex glycoprotein with several subunits

WHY PLANTS?
v
Plants are very flexible Crop plants can synthesize a wide variety of proteins that are free of mammalian toxins and pathogens Crop plants produce large amounts of biomass at low cost and require limited facilities Well suited for the therapeutic proteins

HOW IS IT DONE?
Genetic enhancement is used to introduce and express genes coding for the high value proteins Through careful and skilled manipulation of genes Controlled expression of a specific gene which then expressed in a transgenic plant 4/22/12 66
Target protein can be expressed in a single plant tissue or during a specific developmental phase of the plants growth cycle Thus the production of any target protein 77

Plant Transformation
The plant leaf disc is dipped in a solution of bacteria. The bacterial "Trojan Horse" infects the edges of the leaf disc and in the process integrates the pharmaceutical protein gone into the plant genome After infection the discs are placed on selection media that a flows only plant cells that carry the protein gene to survive and regenerate into plantlets. After about six weeks on selection media, a large number of plantlets that carry the pharmaceutical 1414 protein gene are visible at
4/22/12
The plantlets are removed from the leaf disc and placed in clear plastic boxes that contain media that allows them to form roots The rooted plantlets are placed in pots and plants are allowed to grow and produce seed. This seed can then be used for large scale production of the 4/22/12 pharmaceutical protein
