Expression of antibodies and Fab fragments in transgenic potato plants: a case study for bulk production in crop plants 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

To use transgenic potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum cv. Désirée) for bulk production of recombinant antibodies, constructs were engineered for accumulating full-size IgGs and Fab fragments in the plant cell apoplast or endoplasmic reticulum (ER). An in-house transformation protocol was worked out for the efficient co-transformation of potato root explants. Accumulation levels in tubers of up to 0.5% of total soluble protein were found for antibodies targeted to the ER whereas five-fold lower accumulation levels were found for antibodies targeted for secretion. Additionally, different aspects important for the commercial exploitation of potato tubers as a heterologous production system were analysed. Tubers could be stored for up to 6 months without significant loss of antibody amount or activity. Minor variations in antibody accumulation levels were observed in tubers that originated from the same transformant. Most isolated IgGs and Fab fragments bound the antigen and had the correct molecular weight when compared with the hybridoma-derived standard. Processing to greenhouse or field trials, including in vitro propagation of a selected transformant, required only approximately 9 months from the start of transformation, a time frame in which hundreds of kilograms of transgenic potato tubers could easily be obtained. Small-scale purification of IgG was possible by using standard laboratory techniques. Thus, molecular farming in potato tubers can be a viable production system for economic production of clinically or industrially interesting macromolecules, such as antibodies. 相似文献

Plants have been identified as promising expression systems for commercial production of vaccine antigens. In phase I clinical trials several plant-derived vaccine antigens have been found to be safe and induce sufficiently high immune response. Thus, transgenic plants, including edible plant parts are suggested as excellent alternatives for the production of vaccines and economic scale-up through cultivation. Improved understanding of plant molecular biology and consequent refinement in the genetic engineering techniques have led to designing approaches for high level expression of vaccine antigens in plants. During the last decade, several efficient plant-based expression systems have been examined and more than 100 recombinant proteins including plant-derived vaccine antigens have been expressed in different plant tissues. Estimates suggest that it may become possible to obtain antigen sufficient for vaccinating millions of individuals from one acre crop by expressing the antigen in seeds of an edible legume, like peanut or soybean. In the near future, a plethora of protein products, developed through ‘naturalized bioreactors’ may reach market. Efforts for further improvements in these technologies need to be directed mainly towards validation and applicability of plant-based standardized mucosal and edible vaccines, regulatory pharmacology, formulations and the development of commercially viable GLP protocols. This article reviews the current status of developments in the area of use of plants for the development of vaccine antigens. 相似文献

Yersinia pestis, the causative agent of bubonic and pneumonic plague, is an extremely virulent bacterium but there are currently no approved vaccines for protection against this organism. Plants represent an economical and safer alternative to fermentation-based expression systems for the production of therapeutic proteins. The recombinant plague vaccine candidates produced in plants are based on the two most immunogenic antigens of Y. pestis: the fraction-1 capsular antigen (F1) and the low calcium response virulent antigen (V) either in combination or as a fusion protein (F1–V). These antigens have been expressed in plants using all three known possible strategies: nuclear transformation, chloroplast transformation and plant-virus-based expression vectors. These plant-derived plague vaccine candidates were successfully tested in animal models using parenteral, oral, or prime/boost immunization regimens. This review focuses on the recent research accomplishments towards the development of safe and effective pneumonic and bubonic plague vaccines using plants as bioreactors. 相似文献

Expression of the Newcastle disease virus fusion protein in transgenic maize and immunological studies 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Transgenic plants have been employed successfully as a low-cost system for the production of therapeutically valuable proteins,
including antibodies, antigens and hormones. Here, we report the expression of the fusion (F) gene of the Newcastle disease
virus (NDV) in transgenic maize plants. The expression of the transgene, driven by the maize ubiquitin promoter, caused accumulation
of the F protein in maize kernels. The presence of the transgene was verified by Southern and western blots. Feeding chickens
with kernels containing the F protein induced the production of antibodies, which conferred protection against a viral challenge.
This protection was comparable to that conferred by a commercial vaccine. Possible uses of this plant-based F protein as a
potential mucosal vaccine are discussed. 相似文献

Rhizosecretion of recombinant proteins from plant hairy roots 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Rhizosecretion of a target protein in the hydroponic medium provides an alternative manufacturing platform that simplifies the downstream purification procedure and increases protein yield. In order to increase the production rates of rhizosecreted proteins, we have exploited the ability of Agrobacterium rhizogenes to induce the formation of large amounts of root tissue on transgenic tobacco plants engineered to secrete a model recombinant protein, human secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP). The secretion of SEAP from hairy roots induced on the stems of transgenic tobacco plants was 5–7 times higher than that from adventitious transgenic roots.Abbreviations mRNA Messenger RNA - Ri Root-inducing - SEAP Secreted alkaline phosphataseCommunicated by W.

Transgenic Brassica carinata as a vehicle for the production of recombinant proteins in seeds 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Hirudin, a blood anticoagulant protein from leeches, and β-glucuronidase were produced in Brassica carinata Braun (Ethiopian mustard) seeds using oleosin as a carrier. Cotyledonary petioles were infected with Agrobacterium strains containing oleosin-glucuronidase (pCGNOBPGUS-A) or oleosin-hirudin (pCGN-OBHIRT) constructs. Polymerase chain reaction
and neomycin phosphotransferase II enzyme assays confirmed the presence of the fusion genes in plants regenerating under selection.
The fusion polypeptides were correctly expressed and targeted to the oil-bodies of the seeds with high fidelity (ca. 90%).
Recombinant protein was purified from all other cellular protein by a simple flotation process and cleaved from oil-bodies
using the endoprotease, Factor Xa. Hirudin activity was measured using a colorimetric thrombin inhibition assay and an activity
in the range of 0.2–0.4 antithrombin units per milligram of oil-body protein was detected. B. carinata offers an attractive alternative for the production of recombinant proteins using oleosin technology.

Transgenic plants are promising alternatives for the low-cost and safe pathogen-free production of complex recombinant pharmaceutical
proteins (molecular farming). Plants as higher eukaryotes perform posttranslational modifications similar to those of mammalian
cells. However, plant-specific protein N-glycosylation was shown to be immunogenic, a fact that represents a drawback for many plant systems in biopharmaceutical
production. The moss Physcomitrella patens offers unique properties as a contained system for protein production. It is grown in the predominant haploid gametophytic
stage as tissue suspension cultures in photobioreactors. Efficient secretory signals and a transient transfection system allow
the secretion of freshly synthesized proteins to the surrounding medium. The key advantage of Physcomitrella compared to other plant systems is the feasibility of targeted gene replacements. By this means, moss strains with non-immunogenic
humanized glycan patterns were created. Here we present an overview of the relevant aspects for establishing moss as a production
system for recombinant biopharmaceuticals. 相似文献

Plants as bioreactors for protein production: avoiding the problem of transgene silencing 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Plants are particularly attractive as large-scale production systems for proteins intended for therapeutical or industrial applications: they can be grown easily and inexpensively in large quantities that can be harvested and processed with the available agronomic infrastructures. The effective use of plants as bioreactors depends on the possibility of obtaining high protein accumulation levels that are stable during the life cycle of the transgenic plant and in subsequent generations. Silencing of the introduced transgenes has frequently been observed in plants, constituting a major commercial risk and hampering the general economic exploitation of plants as protein factories. Until now, the most efficient strategy to avoid transgene silencing involves careful design of the transgene construct and thorough analysis of transformants at the molecular level. Here, we focus on different aspects of the generation of transgenic plants intended for protein production and on their influence on the stability of heterologous gene expression.These authors contributed equally to this work 相似文献

Conclusion High density perfusion culture of insect cells for the production of recombinant proteins has proved to be an attractive alternative to batch and fed-batch processes. A comparison of the different production processes is summarized in Table 3. Internal membrane perfusion has a limited scale-up potential but appears to the method of choice in smaller lab-scale production systems. External membrane perfusion results in increased shear stress generated by pumping of cells and passing through microfiltration modules at high velocity. However, using optimized perfusion strategies this shear stress can be minimized such that it is tolerated by the cells. In these cases, perfusion culture has proven to be superior to batch production with respect to product yields and cell specific productivity. Although insect cells could be successfully cultivated by immobilization and perfusion in stationary bed bioreactors, this method has not yet been used in continuous processes. In fluidized bed bioreactors with continuous medium exchange cells showed reduced growth and protein production rates.For the cultivation of insect cells in batch and fedbatch processes numerous efforts have been made to optimize the culture medium in order to allow growth and production at higher cell densities. These improved media could be used in combination with a perfusion process, thus allowing substantially increased cell densities without raising the medium exchange rate. However, sufficient oxygen supply has to be guaranteed during fermentation in order to ensure optimal productivity. 相似文献

Plants are becoming commercially acceptable for recombinant protein production for human therapeutics, vaccine antigens, industrial enzymes, and nutraceuticals. Recently, significant advances in expression, protein glycosylation, and gene-to-product development time have been achieved. Safety and regulatory concerns for open-field production systems have also been addressed by using contained systems to grow transgenic plants. However, using contained systems eliminates several advantages of open-field production, such as inexpensive upstream production and scale-up costs. Upstream technological achievements have not been matched by downstream processing advancements. In the past 10 years, the most research progress was achieved in the areas of extraction and pretreatment. Extraction conditions have been optimized for numerous proteins on a case-by-case basis leading to the development of platform-dependent approaches. Pretreatment advances were made after realizing that plant extracts and homogenates have unique compositions that require distinct conditioning prior to purification. However, scientists have relied on purification methods developed for other protein production hosts with modest investments in developing novel plant purification tools. Recently, non-chromatographic purification methods, such as aqueous two-phase partitioning and membrane filtration, have been evaluated as low-cost purification alternatives to packed-bed adsorption. This paper reviews seed, leafy, and bioreactor-based platforms, highlights strategies for the primary recovery and purification of recombinant proteins, and compares process economics between systems. Lastly, the future direction and research needs for developing economically competitive recombinant proteins with commercial potential are discussed. 相似文献

Molecular farming of pharmaceuticals in plants has the potential to provide almost unlimited amounts of recombinant proteins for use in disease diagnosis, prevention or treatment. Tobacco has been and will continue to be a major crop for molecular farming and offers several practical advantages over other crops. It produces significant leaf biomass, has high soluble protein content and is a non-food crop, minimizing the risk of food-chain contamination. This, combined with its flexibility and highly-efficient genetic transformation/regeneration, has made tobacco particularly well suited for plant-based production of biopharmaceutical products. The goal of this review is to provide an update on the use of tobacco for molecular farming of biopharmaceuticals as well the technologies developed to enhance protein production/purification/efficacy. We show that tobacco is a robust biological reactor with a multitude of applications and may hold the key to success in plant molecular farming. 相似文献

Scale‐down models to optimize a filter train for the downstream purification of recombinant pharmaceutical proteins produced in tobacco leaves
下载免费PDF全文

The extraction of biopharmaceutical proteins from intact leaves involves the release of abundant particulate contaminants that must be removed economically from the process stream before chromatography, for example, using disposable filters that comply with good manufacturing practice. We therefore scaled down an existing 200‐kg process for the purification of two target proteins from tobacco leaves (the monoclonal antibody 2G12 and the fluorescent protein DsRed, as monitored by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy and fluorescence imaging, respectively) and screened different materials on the 2‐kg scale to reduce the number of depth filtration steps from three to one. We assessed filter cost and capacity, filtrate turbidity, and protein recovery when the filter materials were challenged with extracts from different tobacco varieties and related species grown in soil or rockwool. PDF4 was consistently the most suitable depth filter because it was the least expensive, it did not interact significantly with the target proteins, and it had the greatest overall capacity. The filter capacity was generally reduced when plants were grown in rockwool, but this substrate has a low bioburden, thus improving process safety. Our data concerning the clarification of plant extracts will help in the design of more cost‐effective downstream processes and accelerate their development. 相似文献

Arcelin seed proteins of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) confer resistance to bruchid pests, and in vitro results suggested that greater resistance could be achieved by increasing
the concentration of arcelin. We created backcross lines having arcelin alleles (SMARC lines), or alleles for the related
protein phytohemagglutinin (PHA) (SMPHA lines), and a null allele for phaseolin to determine if seeds lacking phaseolin would
contain increased quantities of arcelin or PHA proteins. To test the affects of genetically removing phaseolin, SMARC and
SMPHA lines were derived as pairs of phaseolin-containing and phaseolin-null lines. Parental, SMARC, and SMPHA lines were
grown in a replicated greenhouse trial and measured for days-to-flower, days-to-maturity, seed weight, and for quantities
of phaseolin, arcelin dimer, PHA, and total proteins. There were no differences between pairs of phaseolin and phaseolin-null
lines for days-to-flower, seed weight or total protein, and inconsistent differences for days-to-maturity. Arcelin concentrations
were significantly increased in two of four pairs of SMARC lines, and PHA concentration was significantly greater in four
of five pairs of SMPHA lines. These or other changes in the seed protein composition in phaseolin null lines may improve resistance
to bruchids.

A self-contained system for the field production of plant recombinant interleukin-10 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Menassa Rima Nguyen Vi Jevnikar Anthony Brandle Jim 《Molecular breeding : new strategies in plant improvement》2001,8(2):177-185
The production of pharmaceutical proteins in plants is creating a broad spectrum of new high-value traits in traditional crop species. As the production of these recombinant proteins moves from bench to field scale, containment and the presence of unwanted secondary metabolites are significant practical issues. We have developed a hybrid male-sterile low-alkaloid tobacco (MSLA) production platform. Recombinant protein is produced in leaves that are harvested prior to flowering. If considered for direct in vivo mammalian use the low-alkaloid background genotype addresses concerns about nicotine, and male sterility further reduces the risk of gene leakage. We have applied this system to the production of human interleukin-10 (phIL-10), a contra-inflammatory cytokine with potential application in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease and autoimmune diseases. Transgenic low-alkaloid tobacco lines properly assembled a biologically active phIL-10 homodimer. Hybrids made by crossing a single homozygous high-expressing phIL-10 line with a MSLA female were field tested in a high density production system and harvested after 30 days. Recombinant phIL-10 yields were found to be similar in the hybrids and the homozygous control. MSLA tobacco is a practical, self-contained system for the production of plant recombinant proteins. 相似文献

Both conventional and innovative biomedical approaches require cost-effective protein drugs with high therapeutic potency, improved bioavailability, biocompatibility, stability and pharmacokinetics. The growing longevity of the human population, the increasing incidence and prevalence of age-related diseases and the better comprehension of genetic-linked disorders prompt to develop natural and engineered drugs addressed to fulfill emerging therapeutic demands. Conventional microbial systems have been for long time exploited to produce biotherapeutics, competing with animal cells due to easier operation and lower process costs. However, both biological platforms exhibit important drawbacks (mainly associated to intracellular retention of the product, lack of post-translational modifications and conformational stresses), that cannot be overcome through further strain optimization merely due to physiological constraints. The metabolic diversity among microorganisms offers a spectrum of unconventional hosts, that, being able to bypass some of these weaknesses, are under progressive incorporation into production pipelines. In this review we describe the main biological traits and potentials of emerging bacterial, yeast, fungal and microalgae systems, by comparing selected leading species with well established conventional organisms with a long run in protein drug production. 相似文献
