Regulation of Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody Production in Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells: A Comparative Study of Gene Copy Number, mRNA Level, and Protein Expression
3 Feb 2006
Abstract excerpt
We performed a comparative analysis on CHO cells with varying recombinant monoclonal antibody production rates (qAb) and investigated the regulation of MAb production. Two families of CHO cells each composed of one parental and two progeny cell lines, generated by stepwise increases in methotrexate (MTX) concentration, were studied. The MAb heavy chain (HC) and light (LC) gene copy numbers and mRNA levels were...
