drug development | RNA interference technology obtains a targeted down-regulation of the endogenous beta1,2-xylosyltransferase (XylT) and alpha1,3-fucosyltransferase (FucT) genes, whereby generating RNAi lines which are stable, viable and do not show any obvious phenotype, thus providing a robust tool for the production of therapeutically relevant glycoproteins in plants with a humanized N -glycan structure | Nicotiana benthamiana |
Cloned (Comment) | Organism |

FucT cDNA (414 bp) amplified and cloned into the BamHI site of puc18XTI2 to create puc18Fsi. The antisense fragment amplified and cloned into the KpnI digested vector puc18Fsi to generate puc18Fsias. Subsequently, the 'sense-intron-antisense' cassette excised by XbaI digestion and cloned into XbaI linearized plant expression vector pGA643 | Nicotiana benthamiana |
