Structured modeling of recombinant protein production in batch and fed-batch culture of baculovirus-infected insect cells

摘要

The infection of insect cells with baculovirus was described in a mathematical model as a part of the structured dynamic model describing whole animal cell metabolism. The model presented here is capable of simulating cell population dynamics, the concentrations of extracellular and intracellularviral components, and the heterologous product titers. The model describes the whole processes of viral infection and theeffect of the infection on the host cell metabolism. Dynamic simulation of the model in batch and fed-batch mode gave goodagreement between model predictions and experimental data. Optimum conditions for insect cell culture and viral infectionin batch and fed-batch culture were studied using the model.
