Protein glycosylation has a huge impact on biological processes in all domains of life. The
type of glycan present on a recombinant glycoprotein depends on protein intrinsic features …

N-Glycosylation of immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) at the heavy chain Fc domain (Asn297) plays
an important role for antibody structure and effector functions. While numerous recombinant …

Control over glycosylation is an important quality parameter in recombinant protein
production. Here, we demonstrate the generation of a marker‐free genome edited Nicotiana …

Plant molecular farming (PMF) has been promoted since the 1990s as a rapid, cost-effective
and (most of all) safe alternative to the cultivation of bacteria or animal cells for the …

Immunoglobulin M (IgM) is the largest antibody isotype with unique features like extensive
glycosylation and oligomerization. Major hurdles in characterizing its properties are …

Plants are increasingly used for the production of high-quality biological molecules for use
as pharmaceuticals and biomaterials in industry. Plants have proved that they can produce …

Viral nanoparticles (VNPs) are a new class of virus‐based formulations that can be used as
building blocks to implement a variety of functions of potential interest in biotechnology and …

The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the need for rapid and cost-effective diagnostic
