High-value Recombinant Protein Production in Microalgae
نویسندگان
چکیده
Increasing interest in recombinant protein technologies for human and animal health applications has spotlighted microalgae as a platform with the potential to meet a large impending demand. Here we describe an algae protein expression system and compare the advantages and disadvantages to other platforms currently operating on a commercial level. High-value recombinant proteins that have been produced in microalgae are presented, and strategies for developing production strains with improved commercial properties are discussed.

Recombinant protein production in microalgae chloroplasts can provide correctly folded proteins in significant quantities and potentially inexpensive costs compared to other heterologous protein production platforms. The best results have been achieved by using the psbA promoter and 5' untranslated region (UTR) to drive the expression of heterologous genes in a psbA-deficient, non-photosyntheti...
متن کاملPlant-based expression systems for protein and antimicrobial peptide production
Molecular farming technology offers a unique advantage that almost any protein can be produced economically and safely under very controlled conditions. Besides traditional production systems, such as bacteria, yeasts, insects and mammal cell lines, plants can now be used to produce eukaryotic recombinant proteins, especially therapeutic ones. Their advantages as hosts for protein production in...
