Recombinant Lectin Production in Mammalian Cells

Recombinant Lectin Production in Mammalian Cells

Mammalian Cells: a Relatively Mature Eukaryotic Expression System

A mammalian cell expression system is a technology that uses mammalian cells as host cells to achieve protein expression by transfection to a foreign expression vector. At CD BioGlyco, we mainly provide expression services based on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and human embryonic kidney cells 293 (HEK293) because they are easy to process, grow fast, have extremely high transfection efficiency, and have highly efficient recombinant protein expression. In addition, we offer other cell line hosts including but not limited to:

  • Various mouse myelomas such as NS0 murine myeloma cells
  • Human cell lines such as human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells
  • Green monkey kidney cells
  • Baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells

A Good Recombinant Lectin Production Service in Mammalian Cells at CD BioGlyco

Our company has a complete set of recombinant lectin production solutions and experienced operators. According to the experimental requirements and the characteristics of the target protein, suitable lactating cell lines, such as CHO cells and HEK293 cells, are selected to ensure the efficient expression of the target protein. Every step is tightly controlled.

  • Expression vectors: We achieve high levels of target expression by designing expression vectors, including selecting appropriate promoters, regulatory elements, and target protein-coding sequences.
  • Culture conditions: We continuously optimize cell culture conditions to improve cell growth and protein expression efficiency.
  • Optimal collection time: Our professional technicians select the appropriate time point for cell collection according to the expression kinetics of the target protein to obtain the optimal protein expression level.

Paper Title: Expression and characterization of recombinant chicken mannose binding lectin

Expression System: HeLa R19 cells

Journal: Immunobiology

Published: 2017

IF: 3.152

Results: HeLa R19 cells expressing recombinant chicken mannose binding lectin (RcMBL) were purified and examined. The results showed that the recombinant lectin was similar to the natural sources regarding structural functions and activity. The monomer mass was 26 kDa, corresponding to the predicted mass. The glycan microarray and bioactivity detection of RcMBL showed the strongest binding to high-mannose glycans. RcMBL as a valuable tool to study the role of molecular MBL between pathogens helpd to determine the role of MBLs in infections in chickens and other birds.
