Abstract
A method of in vivo assembly of a recombinant micelle including: introducing a plasmid into a plant cell, wherein: the plasmid includes a segment of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) for encoding a ribonucleic acid (RNA) for a protein in a casein micelle, the segment of DNA is transcribed and translated; forming recombinant casein proteins in the plant cell, wherein: the recombinant casein proteins include a κ-casein and at least one of an αS1-casein, an αS2-casein, a β-casein; and assembling in vivo a recombinant micelle within the plant cell, wherein: an outer layer of the recombinant micelle is enriched with the κ-casein, an inner matrix of the recombinant micelle include at least one of the αS1-casein, the αS2-casein, the β-casein.
