✦ Synopsis

Chemical-inducible expression systems, or "gene switchesÏ, provide an opportunity for the temporal, spatial and quantitative control of genetically engineered traits. This review describes molecular and chemical aspects of several gene switches which have appeared in the literature and a novel unpublished system. Molecular components from plant, bacterial, fungal, insect and mammalian sources have all been utilised to develop gene switches. A brief description of the underlying principle of each approach and some detail of how they perform in transgenic plants is given. Although gene switch systems have utility for fundamental and applied research, particular reference is given to those systems with potential for application in agriculture.

## Abstract Plant cell culture is an alternative for the production of recombinant human therapeutic proteins because of improved product safety, lower production cost, and capability for eukaryotic post‐translational modification. In this study, bioreactor production of recombinant human alpha‐1‐a
