A team at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) has successfully developed plants capable of producing high levels of functional proteins while maintaining normal growth without dwarfing by suppressing the plant RNA silencing mechanism. Seeds that inherited these traits and germinated normally were also obtained from the developed plants. GFP served as a test protein., but the breakthrough is expected to enable mass production of functional proteins using plants.
