Plastids are cellular organelles with circular double
stranded DNA.
Various forms of plastids are Amyloplast for storing
starch, Elaioplast for fat storage, Chromoplast for
pigment synthesis and storage and Choloroplast for
photosynthesis.
Chloroplast origin is prokaryotic.

~900 chloroplasts per
plant cell
Each cell contain ~10,000
identical copies of each
plastid gene.
CpDNA is packed into
discrete structures called
chloroplast nucleoids.
Genome size :
120-160 kb
Each plastid cell contain
120 genes.
![Page 5: plastome engineering](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5a64b9f57f8b9a05418b4737/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Risk of transgene escape: chloroplast genome is maternallyinherited so it provides gene containment thus reduces theescape of transgene.
Expression level: Higher level and multiple transgeneexpression due to polycistronic mRNA.
Homologous recombination: It minimizes the insertion ofunnecessary DNA that accompanies in nuclear genometransformation.
Gene silencing is absent.
Disulphide bond formation and folding human proteinsresults in high level production of proteins.

Nuclear genome Chloroplast genome
Gene silencing results in
decrease or elimination of
transgene expression.
Gene silencing is absent.
Paternal transgene inheritance
results in outcrossing among
crops and weeds.
Maternal gene inheritance in
most crop plants results in
natural gene containment.
Highly variable gene expression. Uniform gene expression.
Each transgene is independently
inserted and transcribed into a
monocistronic mRNA.
Genes transcribed into
polycistronic RNA so that
multiple transgenes can be
introduced and expressed in a
single transformation event.

2 successful methods include biolistics and
polyethylene glycol mediated transfer.
Biolistic DNA delivery is used when the targets in
plastids are intact tissue.
Polyethylene glycol treatment is used for DNA
introduction into protoplasts.
Biolistics is preferred as it is less time-consuming and
demanding.

The plastid genome segments that are included in the vector are
marked as the left (LTR) and right targeting regions (RTR). A
selectable marker gene and gene of interest is inserted in vector.

HSA is synthesized in the liver and functions as a
carrier protein for many exogenous and endogenous
metabolites and drugs.
It accounts for 60% of the total protein in blood
serum.
It is the most widely used intravenous protein in a
number of human therapies.
It is highly susceptible to proteolytic degradation in
recombinant systems and is expensive to purify.
Very low expression levels of HSA were attained
(0.02% tsp) via nuclear transformation.
![Page 13: plastome engineering](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5a64b9f57f8b9a05418b4737/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The annual world need of HSA exceeds 500 tons.
Only source of HSA is blood so there is chance of
transmitting pathogenic viruses.
In addition, good recombinant systems are still not
available for many human proteins that are expensive
to purify or highly susceptible to proteolytic
degradation.

Integration of transgene cassettes into the chloroplast genome.
HSA is driven in all cassettes by the Prrn promoter upstream of the
aadA gene for spectinomycin resistance with additional promoters
and control elements.

500 folds higher concentration of HSA was observedthan usual concentration.
11.1% of tsp of HSA was observed as compared to0.02% observed in nuclear transformation.
Inclusion bodies facilitated purification of HSA .
Regulatory elements eg. psbA 5’UTR served as amodel system for enhancing expression of foreignproteins.
