Methods for optimizing assembly and production of heteromultimeric protein complexes

摘要

Methods are provided to improve the expression of protein complexes by tuning the expression levels of each component required for the assembly of the complex. These methods are effective in limiting the expression of the dominant chain and, thus, equilibrating their relative abundance. The methods provided herein lead to a significant increase in productivity and final bispecific yields both in transient expression systems as well as in stably transfected mammalian cells.
