Biomedical proteins and proteins having a nutritional function can be produced in large quantities (as well as cheap) in the mammary gland of mammals such as cows. Several of these proteins are of major economic importance and will result in several new uses for milk. For example, milk of genetically modified cows will be produced especially for branches of the pharmaceutical industry or for the baby food industry. Production of these new proteins will not have any injurious effects on the animal as proteins in the mammary gland are characterised by the fact that they follow a one-way course.
生物医学蛋白质和具有营养功能的蛋白质可以在奶牛等哺乳动物的乳腺中大量（且低成本地）生产。其中几种蛋白质具有重大经济意义，并将为牛奶带来多种新用途。例如，转基因奶牛产的奶将专门供应给制药行业或婴儿食品行业。生产这些新蛋白质不会对动物产生任何有害影响，因为乳腺中的蛋白质具有单向流动的特点。
