In order to produce useful substances in plants, it is necessary to have an ideal vector system that can transfer the gene encoding useful substances into plant cells and make the gene express efficiently in host cells. In recent years, the research results show that plant viruses have the basic conditions to construct high-efficiency plant expression vectors, and have great development and application prospects. Creative BioMart is now able to provide plant virus vectors derived from Tobamoviruses, Potexviruses, Potyviruses, Bromoviruses, Comoviruses, Geminiviruses.
Tobamoviruses | The active TMV genomic RNA is produced by in vitro transcription of TMV cDNA to infect the host and produce systemic spread. |
Potexviruses | The method of transformation is simple and high copy foreign genes can be obtained quickly. We mainly construct vectors by gene insertion and fusion protein strategy |
Potyviruses | It is suitable for infecting Solanaceae plants |
Bromoviruses | Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) and alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) are available as the vector |
Comoviruses | CPMV expression cassettes and the sequence encoding P19 have been incorporated into the resulting vector, allowing high-level expression of multiple polypeptides by infiltration of a single construct |
Geminiviruses | This viruses family has single-stranded circular DNA genomes that replicate to very high copy numbers in the nuclei of infected plant cells. It has the potential of using DNA containing geminiviruses as extra chromosome gene amplification vectors to express useful proteins in plants. |
Compared with the Agrobacterium delivery method, the plant virus expression vector system has five advantages:
Therefore, plant virus is an excellent choice for transient plant recombinant protein expression.
