Zusammenfassung: | The transgenic plants engineered to express animal-derived proteins, such as myoglobin, casein, chymosin, hemoglobin and actin and other animal-derived proteins, and the nucleic acids encoding the same are described herein. Methods of making and identifying the transgenic plants, processing the seeds from the transgenic plants that contain the expressed animal-derived proteins, isolating and purifying the expressed proteins, and utilizing the expressed proteins in food are provided. Food and food ingredients that include myoglobin, casein, chymosin, hemoglobin and actin are also disclosed herein. Genes encoding myoglobin, casein, hemoglobin and actin forms that have been modified to improve performance as components of food are described. |
