Abstract:
Described herein are methods useful for producing proteins, such as enzymes, by agrofiltration. The methods involve producing an with a Ti plasmid encoding a cellulase, infecting plant cells with the allowing expression of the cellulase, and recovering the cellulase from the plant cells. In one embodiment, the protein produced is an endoglucanase.

Abstract:
Described herein are viral amplicon-based protein expression systems and methods useful for producing heterologous proteins, such as enzymes, by agroinfiltration. The methods involve producing an with a Ti plasmid encoding a heterologous protein, infecting plant cells with the , allowing expression of the heterologous protein, and recovering the heterologous protein from the plant cells. In one embodiment, the protein produced is an endoglucanase.
