Innovative method of protein production increasing production yield by more than 50 %
The production of recombinant proteins is a multi-billion dollar industry. In order to lower production costs, companies are very active in developing methods for increasing protein yield. However, current techniques are cumbersome, time consuming and consequently relatively expensive.
An innovative method, invented by a scientist at RWTH Aachen, is now about to close this gap in biotechnology. Briefly, the retention time of any target RNA can be significantly increased, leading to a substantially enhanced protein production. The astonishingly straightforward method can be applied in a wide variety of industry branches in white, red and green biotechnology.
