magnICON*:
The Desktop System for Protein Expression

magnICON*, our pro-viral expression system, is an ideal 'desktop' system for fast gene construct engineering, screening and optimization in planta. In particular, it is:

• fast: the expression time of 5-14 days; greatly reduced time and effort for construct engineering;
   provides the highest theoretically possible throughput
• high expression level: up to 5 mg of protein per 1 g of fresh leaf, or up to 80% of tsp
• versatile: expression of large or toxic proteins, multiple/multimeric proteins
• inexpensive: rapid in vivo gene assembly
• safe: no illicit gene/vector movement/expression and a non-food plant as the host
• an open modular system: easily combined components that can be independently used/upgraded
• easy to use: based on standard agrobacterial delivery methods
• indefinitely scalable
