Emerging Trends in Protein Expression Systems: Growth Opportunities And Future Outlook

Roots Analysis

Transformation / Transfection: The expression vector is introduced into the host organism (bacterial, yeast, insect, algal, cell-free or mammalian cells) through transformation (for bacteria and yeast) or transfection (for mammalian cells). Further, over 6500 patents related to protein expression were granted in 2023.
