This project aims to understand the processes and genes that regulate synthesis and degradation of proteins in wheat and barley plants. This project will develop methodologies and a new field of research for optimising protein stability in crops. Its significance lies in defining new ways to control protein abundance to increase crop performance and quality and increase the value of recombinant proteins for biotech industries. Expected outcomes will enable the protein abundance in plant cells to be designed and control selective protein degradation in plants for the first time. Benefits will include building biotechnology capacity in WA, brokering new collaborations and providing an ideal training environment for students and postdocs.

该项目旨在了解调节小麦和大麦植物中蛋白质合成和降解的过程和基因。该项目将开发优化作物蛋白质稳定性的方法和新的研究领域。其意义在于确定控制蛋白质丰度的新方法，以提高作物性能和质量，并增加重组蛋白质对生物技术产业的价值。预期成果将使植物细胞中的蛋白质丰度能够被设计并首次控制植物中的选择性蛋白质降解。好处将包括在西澳建立生物技术能力，促成新的合作，并为学生和博士后提供理想的培训环境。
