Production of proteins using homologous recombination

摘要

Methods and compositions are provided for expression of mammalian genes in culture. An amplifiable gene is introduced by homologous recombination in juxtaposition to a target gene, the resulting combination of amplifiable gene and target gene transferred to a convenient host and the target gene amplified by means of the amplifiable gene. The resulting expression host may then be grown in culture with enhanced expression of the target gene.
