Investigating the role of downy mildew effectors in host resistance and susceptibility
… based on HaRxLs subcellular localisation using Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression. As presented in this work, I showed that both screens identified putative interesting effectors which increased plant susceptibility to Pst and Hpa and localised to various plant subcellular compartments. …

Expression optimization of a human papillomavirus type 16 therapeutic vaccine candidate in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves
… be effective, but also to have a low cost. Plant expression systems represent an attractive alternative to conventional expression systems based on bacterial, yeast, mammalian and other cell cultures, and are potentially far more cost- effective. The aim of the present project was to produce …

Towards the development of plant-made PsVs as potential delivery vehicles for therapeutic HPV vaccines
… cells. Initially, strategies to optimise Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression of BPV-1 L1 and L2 capsid proteins in Nicotiana benthamiana were explored. Approaches such as an increased acetosyringone concentration for recombinant Agrobacterium induction, a heat-shock treatment of …

Design and production of a candidate universal influenza A vaccine in Nicotiana benthamiana plants
… (VLPs) in Nicotiana benthamiana plants via Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression. Plants are increasingly being examined as alternative recombinant protein expression systems due to their safety, scalability and rapid production times. Moreover, numerous studies suggest the use of …

HPV pseudovirion production in plants
… cell culture is expensive and time-consuming. Transient recombinant protein expression in plants offers a rapid and cost-effective alternative to mammalian cell culture. Here, we developed a method of high-titre HPV PsV production in plants. The autonomously replicating plant vector, pRIC3, was …

Engineering of the RTB Lectin as a Carrier Platform for Proteins and Antigens
… RTB and payload proteins when co-expressed in Agrobacterium-infiltrated plant leaves. Carrier and payload proteins expressed in plants and E. coli, respectively, and purified independently are not able to assemble into an efficient carrier/payload arrangement. These findings show that plant …
