| Title | Expression of protein and peptides via attenuated virus vector |
| Participants | Amit Gal-On (Leader) |
| Period | 1998 - 2006 |
| Description | We expressed many genes via ZYMV vector: some genes benefitial to agriculture were field tested, and some highly valued proteins were partially purified from the plant. We also succeeded to use this vector for epitope presentation to raise specific antibodies in chicks. We are now studying the use of this vector for gene silencing. |
