  • Transgenic non-human mammal comprising a rabbit WAP promoter, uses thereof, and a DNA construct comprising the rabbit WAP promoter
    Patent number: 6268545
    Abstract: A transgenic non-human mammal is provided where the genome of the mammal comprises a DNA construct comprising in operable association a rabbit WAP promoter and a DNA sequence encoding a heterologous protein. Methods of using the mammal in the production of recoverable amounts of a heterologous protein in the mammal's milk are discussed and described such that the mammal is a bio-reactor for a heterologous protein of interest. Furthermore, cells isolated from the mammal are provided for the production of a heterologous protein of interest in vitro, as well as, DNA constructs of the rabbit WAP promoter for the production of the transgenic non-human mammal.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 19, 1999
    Date of Patent: July 31, 2001
    Assignee: Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique
    Inventors: Louis-Marie Houdebine, Eve Devinoy, Dominique Thepot
