PLANT VIRUS VECTOR, PLASMID, METHOD OF EXPRESSING FOREIGN GENE, AND METHOD OF ACQUIRING FOREIGN GENE PRODUCT.

摘要

A plant virus vector comprising a coat protein gene of a tobacco mosaic virus and a foreign gene joined to the downstream of the above gene via a sequence that induces read-through; a plasmid providing the vector as a transcript; a method of expressing a foreign gene in a plant body by inoculating the vector in a plant: and a method of efficiently acquiring a foreign gene product, produced in a plant body, in the form of virus particles.
