Stable Cell Line Construction Service

    Alpha Lifetech Inc. is experienced in cell line construction. We are committed to providing high-quality stable cell line construction services to customers worldwide. Our services are proven and trusted.

Stable cell lines are widely used in various research applications. Cell lines can maintain expression levels during a prolonged culture process. Currently, laboratory technologies of maintaining live cell lines separated from their original tissue source have become robust, such as primary cell and recombinant cell culture, but the stability of those cell lines to produce a high level of bioproduct can be a blockbuster. The opportunity exists to explore new technologies to increase clonal stability while minimizing clonal variation. Factors that contribute to instability include gene copy number, position effect, insertion mutagenesis, post-transcriptional and post-translational modifications.

Based on the cDNA library and gene synthesis technology, we provide a fast and convenient method for screening or amplifying genes of interest (GOI). In general, in order to develop a stable cell line, we need to ligate the GOI to the multiple cloning sites (MCS) which under the control of a single or double promoters and then integrate it into the host chromosomes to retain intact host genetic materials in continuous cell culture or just stay as episomal replicants (transient expression cell line). Stable cell line is the preferred solution, not only to produce recombinant protein and antibody, but also for application in small molecule screenings, gene functional studies etc.

Although the construction of stable cell lines is a laborious and time-consuming job, Alpha Lifetech Inc. is able to free customers from this tedious work and allow them to concentrate on more challenging tasks by providing the relevant services. Our scientists have extensive experience in the field of cell culture and cell line generation. We have developed several high-quality stable cell lines and produced many antibodies and proteins through stable cell lines. Our specific biosimilar cell lines and hybridoma cell lines are available in-house, and we are also pleased to provide custom strains to meet your specific requirements.

Alpha Lifetech provides Custom Rat Monoclonal Antibody Service

    Alpha Lifetech Inc. is capable of providing the whole service of murine hybridoma to worldwide scientists. These services include antigen design/synthesis, animal immunization, cell fusion and hybridoma selection/characteristics, with which we can specialize each project.

Hybridoma Production – Rat Hybridoma & Monoclonal Antibodies

 

Rats have some intrinsic characteristics covering that rats have better immune response than mouse under certain antigen stimulation, especially proteins derive from human beings, because of these proteins from human have a higher homology with mouse. In this case, rat is regarded as a suitable host for hybridoma/monoclonal antibody production and a tool for yielding higher specificity and affinity monoclonal antibodies. Meanwhile, rats have a higher capacity of 50-100 ml ascites of each rat compared with 3-5 ml ascites of each mouse which means scientists could harvest monoclonal antibodies from the rat hybridoma not only with a big amount but also with a batch consistency.


Alpha Lifetech Inc. has established a unique hybridoma platform to develop high-affinity monoclonal antibodies in rats. We use Winstar strain of rats as a resource of spleen cells and IR 983F myeloma as a chaperone cell to create high-expression and high-affinity monoclonal antibodies. Compared with commonly used mouse antibodies, rat antibodies do not have the background cross-reaction problems in immune-detection of antigens out of a mouse background, such as a mouse antigen from a mouse animal model. Another reason is that antibodies against mouse protein are difficult to be raised in mice themselves. Furthermore, we have created IR 983F cell line with lower expression of α-1, 6-fucosyltransferase by using RNAi technology, because IR 938F as chaperone cell possessing lower level of α-1, 6-fucosyltransferase that could efficiently reduce glycosylation of antibody (similar to function of YB2/0 myeloma cell line fused with B lymphocytes). Therefore, antibodies from other species have to be considered and rat monoclonal antibodies are a good choice for yielding low glycol modification antibodies.

 

 

Program Features of Rat Hybridoma & Monoclonal Antibodies

 

-- Picomolar affinity and high specificity

-- Ability to recognize subtle changes such as post-translational modifications

-- Novel epitope recognition

Monoclonal Antibodies

    Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are immunoglobulins designed to target a specific epitope on an antigen. The antigen-binding region of the mAb is formed by the variable domains of the heavy and light chains and contains the complementarity-determining region that imparts high specificity for the target antigen. The monoclonal antibodies (mAb or moAb) recognize only one epitope per antigen and are less likely than polyclonal antibodies to react against other proteins. Monoclonal antibodies can be used to identify specific antigens. Due to their essential functions in various areas, monoclonal antibodies have become popular molecules.

    The first monoclonal antibody was generated in mice in 1975 by Milstein and Kohler using the hybridoma technique.

    The most popular approach for creating monoclonal antibodies is still hybridoma production. The hybridomas that produce monoclonal antibodies from the stable fusions to develop in vitro are chosen, sub-cloned, and formed. These clones are then cultivated, and either the cells themselves or the lysates from the cell culture are used to purify the antibodies they make. Each monoclonal antibody's specificity is determined by its binding site on the target protein.


Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) production (Polyclonal and Monoclonal Antibody Production | Microbiology | | Course Hero)

    Alternative techniques for creating monoclonal antibodies have become available. The so-called "phage-display method" allowed for the specificity screening of recombinant antigen-binding antibodies from a library of fusions to a carrier phage protein. The constant region of recombinant antibodies may now be tailored due to significant advancements in their manufacture, leading to cell lines that can produce them. The benefit of this novel manufacturing approach is that it avoids the problems associated with a hybridoma's long-term stability, including the eventual loss of a priceless clone.


Advantages of Monoclonal Antibodies

(1) Batch to batch reproducibility

(2) The possibility of producing large amounts of identical antibodies

(3) Highly specific to a unique epitope

(4) Low cross-reactivity

(5) Most sensitive in tests where protein levels need to be quantified
