Developing downstream processes for the purification of recombinant proteins and small molecules from Nicotiana benthamiana biomass

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 66-80, January 2026.
Summary Nicotiana benthamiana (Australian tobacco) has become a major host for plant‐based recombinant protein production, especially using transient expression. Once a candidate protein has been designed and produced in a suitable variety (e.g. facilitated humanized glycosylation) under reproducible conditions (e.g.
