Abstract: | Background Transgenic chloroplasts are potential bioreactors for recombinant protein production, especially for achievement of high levels
of protein expression and proper folding. Production of therapeutic proteins in leaves provides transgene containment by elimination
of reproductive structures. Therefore, in this study, human Insulin like Growth Factor-1 is expressed in transgenic chloroplasts
for evaluation of structural identity and function. |
