We constructed transgenic rice cell suspension culture producing human GAA.
The expression of rhGAA was determined by Northern and western blot analyses.
The accumulated rhGAA protein in the culture medium was 37 mg/L.
The rhGAA was purified using a Ni-NTA column.
The acid alpha-glucosidase activity of hGAA produced in transgenic rice cells gave results similar to those of the enzyme produced by CHO cells.
