Outline of Final Research Achievements

Aiming a creation of highly productive edible vaccine for animal
infectious diseases by codon-optimization, Fragments of the codon-optimized DNA coding a fusion protein(F) or hemagglutinin-neuraminidase(HN) protein gene as an antigen of Newcastle disease were introduced into rice genomic DNA through Agrobacterium infection. Twenty-five transgenic rice plants were obtained by the confirmation of these introduced DNA fragments in the rice leaves by PCR and 10 plants were obtained those were expressing the RNA of F or HN protein by confirmation with RT-PCR. These RNA expressions suggest the protein production of F or HN protein which leads to the production of edible vaccine of Newcastle disease.
