Abstract
Plants are engineered to express proinsulin or insulin. The plants can be used as a source of the protein for a variety of purposes. Plant tissue can be orally administered to animals to replace the necessity of injection of insulin. Alternatively, the protein can be extracted from plant tissue and delivered to animals. Plant produced proteins can also provide a less expensive and more readily available source of the protein as reagents or in other experimentation involving insulin proteins.
