Lactococcus lactis as a Cell Factory for Delivery of Therapeutic Proteins
1 Feb 2010
Abstract excerpt
The food-grade bacterium Lactococcus lactis has been extensively investigated during the last two decades as a delivery vector for therapeutic proteins, DNA and vaccine antigens. The bacterium represents a safe, genetically tractable vector capable of producing heterologous therapeutic proteins at mucosal sites. Here we review recent work in which recombinant L. lactis strains have been exploited as agents to...
