Using transient expression, high amounts (>20 mg/mL) of secreted anti-human Rhesus-D IgG1 were produced in a suspension-adapted HEK293 EBNA cell line (Meissner et al., Biotechnol Bioeng 75: 197-203, 2001). Time of harvest was 3 days after transfection. For ...
Technical developments in molecular biology have found extensive applications in the field of microbial ecology. Among these techniques, fingerprinting methods such as denaturing gel electrophoresis (DGE, including the three options: DGGE, TGGE and TTGE) h ...
Rapidly progressive multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is well documented in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive subjects, but it is not fully recognised in HIV-negative subjects in the familial environment. We report three cases of MDR-TB i ...
This is the first report of two successful 100 l scale transienttransfections in a standard stirred bioreactor. More than half a gram of a monoclonal antibody (IgG) were produced in less than 10 days using a technology called large-scale transient gene exp ...
The design, synthesis, and base-pairing properties of bicyclo[3.2.1]amide-DNA (bca-DNA), a novel phosphodiester-based DNA analog, are reported. This analog consists of a conformationally constrained backbone entity, which emulates a B-DNA geometry, to whic ...
Using flow cytometry, single cell sorting, confocal microscopy and fluorescent plasmids, a thorough study of DNA uptake, DNA fate and DNA expression in mammalian cells transfected with the widely used calcium-phosphate precipitation method was executed. We ...
The design and synthesis of chem. probes to study and to elucidate complex biol. problems is becoming an increasingly important field in chem. We are interested in the repair of O6-alkylated guanines in DNA, a DNA lesion that results from alkylation by S-a ...
To preorganize PNA for duplex formation, a new cyclic pyrrolidinone PNA analog has been designed. In this analog the aminoethyl-glycine backbone and the methylene-carbonyl linker are connected, introducing two chiral centers compared to PNA. The four stere ...
Free hydroxyl radicals (free . OH), singlet oxygen (O-1(2)), or . OH produced by DNA-copper-hydroperoxo complexes are possible DNA-damaging reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the reaction system containing copper, catechol, and DNA. para-Chlorobenzoic acid ( ...
Different chemical methods used to attach oligonucleotides by their 5'-end on a glass surface were tested in the framework of solid phase PCR where surface-bound instead of freely-diffusing primers are used to amplify DNA. Each method was first evaluated f ...
