Method for Generating a Recombinant Clonal Cell Line and Novel Reagents for Use in the Method

摘要

A method for generating a recombinant clonal cell line expressing a target cell surface receptor at a specific level of expression from a cell population comprising cells transfected with a plasmid encoding the cDNA sequence of the target receptor and expressing the target cell surface receptor, the method comprising (c) incubating the cell population with a receptor specific fluorescent ligand (d) selecting single cells from step (c) expressing the target cell surface receptor by monitoring the specific binding of the fluorescent ligand using flow cytometry; and novel fluorescent ligands.
