  • Publication number: 20230280332
    Abstract: Described herein are immune binding proteins and method for obtaining immune binding proteins from genomic or other sources. Also described herein are nucleic acids encoding the immune binding proteins in which the natural multimeric association of chains is maintained in the nucleic acids and the immune binding proteins made therefrom. For example, nucleic acids encoding antibodies that are amplified from a B-cell using the methods described herein maintain the natural pairing of heavy and light chains from the B-cell. This maintenance of pairing (or multimerization) produces libraries and/or repertoires of immune binding proteins that are enriched for useful binding molecules.

  • Publication number: 20200300861
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the field of immune binding proteins and method for obtaining immune binding proteins from genomic or other sources. The present invention also relates to methods and apparati for obtaining single cells that express immune binding proteins. The single cells expressing the immune binding proteins can be obtained from a patient that has had an effective immune response to a disease state (e.g., cancer or an infectious agent). The methods and apparati of the disclosure can be used to obtain immune cells that produce immune binding proteins responsible for the effective immune response. The methods and apparati of the disclosure can also be used to obtain cells that express a polypeptide (e.g., a receptor, a secreted protein, a cytokine, or a recombinant protein) or other factor of interest.
