Abstract

Aim. The transient gene expression (TGE) is a widely used method for plant biopharming that allows the production of high levels of recombinant proteins within days. The aim of the work was to investigate the influence of factors on TGE and to develop an effective protocol for the production of recombinant proteins in plant systems. Conclusions. The production of recombinant proteins, including valuable ones, in plant systems can reach high levels after optimization of several parameters of biotic and abiotic nature. We selected the factors with the strongest effect on TGE and, after optimizing them, increased the levels of the target recombinant proteins.
