TRANSGENIC ANIMALS PRODUCING MONOVALENT HUMAN ANTIBODIES AND ANTIBODIES OBTAINABLE FROM THESE ANIMALS

摘要

The invention relates to novel non-human transgenic animals, which upon antigenic stimulation are capable of producing monovalent antibodies binding to a selected antigen, modified heavy chain transgenes, methods for producing the non-human transgenic animals, methods for immunizing the non-human transgenic animals for as well as monovalent antibodies obtainable by such immunization methods.
