Summary
New type of plasmids named pEdHCG1 and pEdHCκ.were constructed. A combination of two plasmids containing the amplified gene product for the variable region of the antibody (Ab) heavy or light chains by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was co-transfected into COS cells to transiently express and in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells to constitutively express chimeric Ab composed of the mouse-derived variable region and human-derived constant region.
