제목 Chloroplast transformation using single walled carbon nanotubes
초록 Plant genetic engineering can be applied to various fields of agriculture. The difficulty of delivering exogenous genetic materials into the desired sites in a plant has hindered their extensive plant genetic engineering applications. Here, we introduce our nanocarrier for transgene expression in the chloroplast. We designed chitosan-complexed single-walled carbon nanotubes, utilizing the lipid exchange envelope penetration (LEEP) mechanism to maximize the trafficking efficiency. This chloroplast transgene delivery tool is a more advanced form of current delivery techniques as a potential transformation method for mature plants to benefit plant bioengineering and biological studies.
