Strategies for improving vaccine antigens expression in transgenic plants: fusion to carrier sequences.
Transgenic plants are gaining increasing attention from the industry as a natural bioreactor for the production of industrial and chemical products. Optimization of transgene expression in plant cells holds the key to maximizing the potential of plants for producing proteins of commercial interest. This chapter is devoted to the description of the methods utilized for the generation of transgenic plants expressing a canine parvovirus vaccine peptide or virus-like particles from a rabbit calicivirus.
