AgriMaa Life Sciences Pvt. Ltd
AgriMaa is a start-up company. This company has two directors/key management personal Shiva Prakash N and Avinash K. AgriMaa’s interests is to develop a recombinant protein production platform using transient gene expression in plants. It developed a novelexpression method using which recombinant proteins can be expressed in all the tissues, including roots, of intact monocot plants.AgriMaa’s is developing a corn seedling-based protein production platform for lowering production cost of industrial proteins. In addition, it also working on low-cost tissue culture, low-cost hydroponics and low-cost greenhouse technologies.
AgriMaa’sdeveloped a novel transient expression method using which recombinant proteins can be expressed in all the tissues, including roots, of intact monocot seedlings like corn, rice, wheat, ragi etc. It aims to boost recombinant protein production level in corn / rice through employing viral genetic elements viz., the replicase and the movement proteins. AgriMaaaim to make plants produce recombinant proteins without creating ‘Genetically Modified’ plants. The advantage of corn/rice seedlings system is the possibility of massive biomass production in a small area upto 7 million Kgs / Ha / year.
