摘要:
Lower eukaryotic cells such as Pichia pastoris that normally cannot use galactose as a carbon source but which have been genetically engineered according to the methods herein to use galactose as a sole source of carbon are described. The cells are genetically engineered to express several of the enzymes comprising the Leloir pathway. In particular, the cells are genetically engineered to express a galactokinase, a UDP-galactose-C4-epimerase, and a galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase, and optionally a galactose permease. In addition, a method is provided for improving the yield of glycoproteins that have galactose-terminated or -containing N-glycans in cells that have been genetically engineered to produce glycoproteins with N-glycans having galactose residues but which normally lack the enzymes comprising the Leloir pathway comprising transforming the cells with one or more nucleic acid molecules encoding a galactokinase, a UDP-galactose-C4-epimerase, and a galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase. The methods and host cells described enable the presence or lack of the ability to assimilate galactose as a selection method for making recombinant cells. The methods and host cells are shown herein to be particularly useful for making immunoglobulins and the like that have galactose-terminated or containing N-glycans.
摘要:
Methods for display of recombinant whole immunoglobulins or immunoglobulin libraries on the surface of eukaryote host cells, including yeast and filamentous fungi, are described. The methods are useful for screening libraries of recombinant immunoglobulins in eukaryote host cells to identify immunoglobulins that are specific for an antigen of interest.

摘要:
The present invention provides, in part, an antibody display system that simultaneously uses a secretion and a display mode. A bait complexed with a monovalent antibody fragment can be expressed on the surface of the host cell wherein the fragment may be assayed for antigen binding while full antibody is simultaneously secreted from the host cell. Methods of using the system for identifying antibodies that bind specifically to an antigen of interest are also provided. Polypeptides, polynucleotides and host cells useful for making the antibody display system are also provided along with methods of use thereof.

The present invention provides antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof that bind specifically to BlyS, immunoglobulin chains thereof, variants thereof; and method of use thereof, e.g., for the treatment or prevention of inflammatory and/or immune diseases such as systemic lupus erythramatous; as well as polynucleotides encoding the immunoglobulin chains of such antibodies and fragments. Methods for the recombinant expression of immunoglobulin chains are also part of the present invention.
