AI Technical Summary
Existing recombinant gene transcription in CHO cells using cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoters is suboptimal due to lower activity in CHO cells, lifecycle issues, and limited control over expression ratios for complex multichain products, leading to unpredictable output.
Development of transcription control elements comprising a murine or human CMV enhancer sequence operably linked with mammalian endogenous promoters and optionally introns, featuring specific NFKB binding sites, to enhance and control gene expression in CHO cells.
The new transcription control elements provide higher and more stable recombinant protein expression, improved expression ratios for multichain products, and better long-term expression stability, reducing cellular toxicity and process variability.
