Transformation of tobacco plants for single-chain antibody expression via apoplastic and symplasmic routes, and analysis of their susceptibility to stolbur phytoplasma infection.
2005-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Phytoplasmas are sieve tube restricted, wall-less phytopathogenic bacteria belonging to the class Mollicutes that have resisted cultivation. In previous studies we have shown that single-chain Fv antibodies (scFv) directed against an immunodominant membrane protein of the culturable plant pathogenic mollicute Spiroplasma citri inhibit its growth in vitro. Based on these observations, we considered a plantibody-bas...
