摘要:
Compositions and methods concern the sequence modification of an endogenous genomic DNA region. Certain aspects relate to a method for site-specific sequence modification of a target genomic DNA region in cells comprising: transfecting the cells by electroporation with a composition comprising (a) a DNA oligo and (b) a DNA digesting agent wherein the donor DNA comprises: (i) a homologous region comprising nucleic acid sequence homologous to the target genomic DNA region and (ii) a sequence modification region; and wherein the genomic DNA sequence is modified specifically at the target genomic DNA region.
摘要:
Embodiments of the invention are directed to a technique for electroporation that allows for a delivery of long electrical pulses of high magnitude in highly conductive buffers and minimizes damage to cells undergoing electroporation.

The present invention relates to the transient modification of cells. In particular embodiments, the cells are immune systems, such as PBMC, PBL, T (CD3+ and/or CD8+) and Natural Killer (NK) cells. The modified cells provide a population of cells that express a genetically engineered chimeric receptor which can be administered to a patient therapeutically. The present invention further relates to methods that deliver mRNA coding for the chimeric receptor to unstimulated resting PBMC, PBL, T (CD3+ and/or CD8+) and NK cells and which delivers the mRNA efficiently to the transfected cells and promotes significant target cell killing.

Methods and compositions are provided involving high producing cell lines. Embodiments concern efficient methods for screening for such cell lines and for creating such cell lines. These cell lines can be used to create large amounts of protein. To quickly generate large quantity of recombinant proteins or vaccines for both pre-clinical study and clinical trials, almost all drug development will face the same challenging obstacle of rapidly generating a high stable producer. Developing and identifying a stable cell line is a critical part of biopharmaceutical development.
摘要:
The electroporation chamber and its related devices combine the features of an electroporation chamber that acts as a manifold for regulation of sample flow with those of a flow electroporation device to form a regulated flow electroporation device. The invention further comprises a novel regulated flow electroporation chamber that enables conditions in which a sample is uniformly processed in individual fractions or volumes in a fully closed (sterile) system.
