Device and Method for Biolistic Transformation of Cells

VTIP:07-051

This invention is a modification part that fits a conventional gene gun and allows simultaneous application of control and test DNA from a single ?shot? of helium. This allows the user to analyze expression from genetic materials in plant leaves or other suitable cells of interest with a greater degree ...

Acceleration of Plant Growth and Biomass Accumulation in Plants

VTIP:05.021

Methods are provided for increasing plant growth rate, biomass and tolerance to stress by genetically engineering plants to contain and express a gene of the ascorbic acid synthesis-cell wall synthesis network (e.g. GlcUA reductase, GLOase or MIOX).

PCT Publication WO 2006/104503

Production of Lysosomal Enzymes in Plant-Based Expression Systems

VTIP:97.012

The production of human and animal lysosomal enzymes in plants comprising expressing the genetic coding sequence of a human or animal lysosomal enzyme in a plant expression system. The plant expression system provides for post-translational modification and processing to produce recombinant protein having enzymatic activity.
