For over 10 years, TMV -based vectors have been used as plant expression tools to examine gene regulation and function, protein processing, pathogen elicitors, to manipulate biosynthetic pathways, and to produce high levels of enzymes, proteins, or peptides of interest in different locations in a plant cell. TMV vectors often exhibit genetic stability of foreign RNA sequences through multiple passages in plant hosts. Foreign coding sequences can be expressed in plants where the stability, intracellular fate and enzymatic or biological activities of the recombinant proteins can be rapidly evaluated and optimized. These properties make viral vectors attracti ve expression vehicles ... Read more
