METHODS FOR PRODUCING RECOMBINANT PROTEINS

摘要

Methods are provided for producing and recovering recombinant proteins from plant tissue. The methods of the invention find use in the commercial processing of grains, particularly in the wet-milling of corn kernels. The methods involve steeping plant tissue and recovering the recombinant proteins in steep water. The methods additionally involve optimizing nucleic acid constructs and plants for the recovery of recombinant proteins from plant tissue.
