✦ Synopsis

Transgenic plants are showing considerable potential for the economic production of proteins, with a few already being marketed. Recent clinical trials of pharmaceuticals produced from transgenic plants are encouraging, with plant glycans showing reassuringly poor immunogenicity. Our increasing understanding of protein targeting and accumulation should further improve the potential of this new technology.

Transgenic plants can express a wide variety of foreign genes and offer the opportunity of large-scale protein production in agricultural systems. The recombinant protein can serve both ex situ and in situ purposes. Due to significant progress in plant molecular biology, many different plant species

This review is based on our recent experience in producing the first commercial recombinant proteins in transgenic plants. We bring forward the issues that have to be considered in the process of selecting and developing a winning transgenic plant production system. From the production point of view
