<p>The synthetic capacities of endosperm tissue are harnessed, for the production of an exogenous polypeptide, via the transformation of a cereal or other monocotyledonous plant with a genetic construct comprised of a structural sequence encoding the polypeptide and, upstream therefrom with respect to the direction of transcription, a segment containing at least one regulatory element that effects or regulates expression of the structural sequence in endosperm tissue. Downstream of the structural sequence, the genetic construct also includes a segment that contains a terminal-processing signal for completion of the processing of nascent mRNA.</p> |
