About the Plant-Based Biofactories Session
Plant-based biofactories leverage the inherent capabilities of plants to produce valuable biomolecules, including pharmaceuticals, vaccines, and biofuels. These biofactories utilize genetic engineering techniques to enhance the production of specific compounds within plant tissues, optimizing growth conditions and metabolic pathways. The advantage of using plants lies in their ability to produce complex proteins with post-translational modifications similar to those in human cells, making them suitable for therapeutic applications. Moreover, plant biofactories are environmentally sustainable, offering a cost-effective alternative to traditional microbial or animal cell culture systems. Continued research is focused on improving yield and efficiency, thus enabling wider application of this innovative approach in biomanufacturing.
