AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Fragments from the DNA of Chinese hamster ovary cells produced by restriction endonuclease EcoRI were cloned in Charon 16A lambda bacteriophage and examined for the ability to hybridize in situ with 32P-labeled double-stranded regions from heterogeneous nuclear RNA (hnRNA). Of 235 clones tested, 87 (37%) contained sequences that hybridized with the double-stranded hnRNA. Nine of these were examined for the presence of inverted repeat DNA structures (ir-DNA) by electron microscopy. All nine contained at least two elements of ir-DNA. Analysis of heteroduplexes formed from the DNAs of the different clones as well as T1 fingerprint analysis of the double-stranded hnRNA hybridized to each of the nine clones suggest that there is detectable nucleotide sequence homology in the various ir-DNAs. There are ca 3 X 10(5) ir-DNA pairs in the haploid Chinese hamster ovary cell genome.

Monoclonal antibodies are extensively used as biotherapeutics for treatment of a variety of diseases. Glycosylation of therapeutic antibodies is considered a critical quality attribute as it influences the effector function, circulatory half-life, immunogenicity, and eventually efficacy and patient safety. During upstream process development, media components play a significant role in determining the glycosylation profile.

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells represent the most common host system for the expression of high-quality recombinant proteins. The development of stable CHO cell lines used in industrial recombinant protein production often relies on dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) and glutamine synthetase (GS) amplification systems. Conventional approaches to develop stable cell lines lead to heterogeneous cell populations.

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are widely used to produce recombinant proteins, including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), through various process modes. While fed-batch (FB) processes have been the standard, a shift toward high-density perfusion processes is being driven by increased productivity, flexible facility footprints, and lower costs. Ensuring the clearance of process-related impurities, such as host cell proteins (HCPs), is crucial in biologics manufacturing.

The implementation of site-specific integration (SSI) systems in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells for the production of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) can alleviate concerns associated with production instability and reduce cell line development timelines. SSI cell line performance is driven by the interaction between genomic integration location, clonal background, and the transgene expression cassette, requiring optimization of all three parameters to maximize productivity. Systematic comparison of these parameters has been hindered by SSI platforms involving low-throughput enrichment strategies, such as cell sorting.
