Advancements in Agricultural Biotechnology
There is immense scope for advancing agricultural biotechnology and crops through protein engineering techniques. Proteins play a vital role in various agricultural applications including crop protection, yield improvement, nutrient quality enhancement, and abiotic stress tolerance. Protein engineering provides tools to modify plant proteins involved in key biological pathways and introduce novel traits of agronomic importance. For instance, enzymes can be engineered to alter metabolic pathways enhancing photosynthetic efficiency, biomass production, and nutrient uptake in crops. Stress-responsive proteins from extremophiles may confer drought, cold, saline, and pest/disease tolerance when transferred to crop plants. Designing better binding or catalytic properties in proteins can help develop herbicide- and pest-resistant transgenic crops. Engineering plant storage proteins can help enhance their nutritional profile making staple crops more nutritious.
