    Notes: Abstract Pronuclear injection is currently the most often used method to make transgenic animals, but in some animal species it is temporally restrictive due to difficulty in visualizing pronuclei. However, the injection of construct DNA into the cytoplasm does not result in transgenesis. The production of transgenic mice by a cytoplasmic microinjection technique of polylysine complexed DNA into pronuclear stage zygotes is described. Transgenic mice were produced from cytoplasmic microinjection of mixtures of a 5.3 kb linearized DNA and poly-l-lysine (degree of polymerization=51). Effects on transgenic frequency of both the lysine to phosphate ratio of polylysine to DNA and DNA concentration were studied. About 12.8% of the pups born from zygotes cytoplasmically microinjected with a polylysine/DNA mixture having a lysine to phosphate ratio (L:P) of 1∶1 microinjection positive control of DNA alone was 21.7%. No transgenic pups were born from microinjection of DNA alone into the cytoplasm. Complexes of polylysine/DNA were detected using agarose gel electrophoresis at the conditions which produced transgenic mice. The presence of polylysine with construct DNA altered thein vitro activities of restriction endonuclease and DNA ligase on the construct DNA. The production of transgenic animals using DNA and polylysine in the absence of any other signal protein suggests that a DNA/polylysine complex but not DNA alone can act as a substrate for transgenesis from the cytoplasm.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of DNA microinjection at various times afterin vitro insemination on DNA detection and survival rates of bovine embryos was investigated. Oocytes were inseminated 24 h after maturation with frozen/thawed semen prepared with a Percoll separation procedure. At 11, 15 and 19 h after insemination, embryos were centrifuged to visualize pronuclei and microinjected with a murine whey acidic protein-human protein C genomic DNA construct. After culture for 7 days on Buffalo Rat Liver cells, embryos were assessed for stage of development and assayed for the presence of the transgene by polymerase chain reaction. Of zygotes in the 11h after insemination treatment, 16% (25/152) of non-injected and 7% (11/161) of injected embryos developed to the morula or blastocyst stage. Comparable development of non-injected and injected embryos treated at 15h after insemination was 15% (23/158) and 4% (6/159) and treated at 19 h after insemination was 14% (23/162) and 1% (1/165), respectively. Development of injected embryos was greater (p〈0.05) when injection was performed at 11 h after insemination compared to 19 h after insemination. Development of non-injected embryos was greater (p〈0.01) than that of injected embryos. There was no difference in transgene detection frequency in embryos of all developmental states between treatments (53% at 11; 50% at 15; 48% at 19h after insemination). Injected embryos testing positive for the presence of the transgene exhibited increased development over negative embryos (p〈0.01). Greater development efficiencies can be obtained in microinjected bovine embryos when injection is performed early in pronuclear formation.

    Notes: Synthetic polymers have long been used to modify various properties of proteins such as activity and solubility. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) has been widely used to form adducts with enzymes and antibodies. In this study, the polyoxazoline family of water-soluble polymers was used to synthesize adducts containing a synthetic peptide recognized by a monoclonal antibody (MAb) directed against human protein C (hPC). This is the first application of direct conjugation of unterminated or “living” polymer to a peptide. The avidity of the antibody for the various adducts was characterized with respect to size and hydrophilicity of methyl- and ethyl-substituted polyoxazoline polymers (POX). Avidity of the adducts was not found to be dependent upon the hydrophilicity and was slightly decreased due to polymer modification. The methyl-POX-peptide adducts were found to be highly water soluble, while the ethyl-POX-peptide adducts showed sporadic problems with aqueous solubility. Because the polymer-peptide adducts retained avidity for the antibody, polyoxazoline polymers may have potential application to protein-adduct chemistry.

    Notes: This study demonstrates that masking the Feb regions of a monoclonal antibody (Mab) with synthetic antigens prior to covalent immobilization efficiency. Water-soluble adducts of poly(2-methyloxazoline) polymers and a syntheticpeptide epitope for the Mab were constructed. These synthetic antigens are referred to as Fab-masking antigents (FMAs). The antibody used in this study is a Ca2+-dependent murine monoclonal lgG directed against the plasma protein, human protein C (hPC). The FMAs were pre-equilibrated with Mab in the presence of calcium prior to immobilization and were then removed by EDTA, which destabilized the FMA-Mab complexes. The antigen binding efficiency and accessibility of the Fab domain of the immobilized antibody was significantly increased for Mab immobilized in the presence of FMA relative to those Mab immobilized without FMA. The increase in binding efficiency was most pronounced for the largest FMA employed. No appreciable differences were detected in the avidity of hPC-Mab complexes formed by immunosorbents produced by either masked or unmaked antibody. These results provide evidence that orientgation may play an important role in the binding activity of immobilized antibodies.

    Notes: Abstract The genotypic and phenotypic stability of four lines of transgenic pigs expressing recombinant human protein C in milk was examined. Two lines were established with a construct consisting of a 2.6 kb mouse WAP promoter and a 9.4 kb human protein C genomic DNA. Two lines were established with another construct consisting of a 4.1 kb mouse WAP promoter and a 9.4 kb human protein C genomic DNA. Genotypic stability was measured by transgene copy number transmission. Outbred offspring having a single transgene integration locus were established from a founder having three independent, multicopy loci. Phenotypic stability over multiple lactations was defined by the combination of recombinant human protein C expression levels and the isoform signature of recombinant human protein C in western blots. Both cDNA and genomic human protein C transgenes gave similar ranges of expression levels of about 100--1800 μg ml−1. Within a given outbred lineage having a single loci for the cDNA transgene, the expression levels ranged between 100--400 μg ml−1. Western blots of reduced recombinant protein C revealed that single chain content was not dependent on expression level and was consistent within each transgenic line, but varied between transgenic lines. This suggests that native swine genetics may play a role in selection of production herds with optimal post-translational proteolytic processing capability. Although swine are not conventional dairy livestock, it is agreed that the short generation times, multiple offspring per litter, stable paternal transmission of the transgene, and milk production capabilities of swine offer distinct advantages over conventional dairy livestock for the establishment of a herd producing a therapeutic recombinant protein

    Notes: The impact of antibody orientation on immunosorbent efficiency was quantitatively assessed. A pH-dependent murine monoclonal antibody (Mab) against human protein C (hPC), recombinant hPC (rhPC) and two different immobilization chemistries and matrices were used as model systems. The lysyl groups of the rhPC were covalently modified with an acetic acid ester of N-hydroxysuccinimide and this modified rhPC was used as a Fab masking agent (FMA). The FMA was used to mask the antigen binding regions (Fab) of the Mab prior to and during covalent immobilization. Thereafter, the residual active sites of the support were inactivated and the FMA was removed. Mab was immobilizeed at low bead-averaged densities of about 0.4-1.1 mg Mab/mL matrix to minimize local density effects. Immunosorbents made using masked Mab (oriented coupling) gave antigen binding efficiencies (nAg) of 42-48% compared with 18-22% for those made by random coupling. The amount of (Fab)2 released from pepsin digestion of immunosorbents was about 3-4-fold higher for matrices having been made with FMA-masked Mab relative to unmasked Mab. Thus, the (Fab)2 accessibility to pepsin correlates well with higher functional efficiency (nAg) and serves as a measure of orientation. In summary, at low Mab density and a 2:1 molar rhPC to Mab binding stoichiometry, about 80% or more of the Mab randomly coupled through amino moieties was improperly oriented relative to oriented coupled Mab, which correlated with about 50% of lost Mab functionality upon immobilization.
