Abstract: This invention provides vectors and methods for the stable introduction of exogenous nucleic acid sequences into the genome of a bird and for expressing said exogenous sequences to alter the phenotype of the bird or to produce desired proteins. In particular, transgenic chickens are produced which express exogenous sequences in their oviducts. Eggs which contain exogenous proteins are also produced.

Abstract: The invention includes isolating pharmaceutical proteins from avian hard shell eggs containing pharmaceutical proteins wherein the pharmaceutical proteins are exogenous to the egg.

Abstract: This invention provides vectors and methods for the stable introduction of exogenous nucleic acid sequences into the genome of avians in order to express the exogenous sequences to alter the phenotype of the avians or to produce desired proteins. In particular, transgenic avians are produced which express exogenous sequences in their oviducts and which deposit exogenous proteins into their eggs. Avian eggs that contain exogenous proteins are encompassed by this invention. The instant invention further provides novel forms of interferon and erythropoietin which are efficiently expressed in the oviduct of transgenic avians and deposited into avian eggs.

Abstract: This invention provides for proteins which are expressed in the avian oviduct, packaged into eggs laid by the avian and removed from the eggs.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to novel methods of producing immunoglobulin polypeptides. More specifically, the invention relates to methods of inserting immunoglobulin-encoding transgenes into avian cells for immunoglobulin production. In one embodiment, the transgenes include at least two immunoglobulin-encoding nucleic acid sequences and an internal ribosome entry site (IRES).

Abstract: The invention relates to transgenic avians which produce antibodies in the egg white by introducing a nucleic acid sequence into the genome of an avian embryo wherein the nucleic acid sequence comprises a nucleotide sequence encoding an antibody and to the antibodies and to methods related thereto.

Abstract: The invention relates to G-CSF molecules having certain O-linked oligosaccharide structures.

Abstract: The invention relates to interferon-? molecules having certain O-linked oligosaccharide structures.

Abstract: The invention includes methods of making transgenic avians by introducing a nucleic acid sequence into the genome of an avian embryo wherein the nucleic acid sequence comprises a nucleotide sequence encoding a heterologous protein, developing the avian embryo to hatch, developing the hatched chick to sexual maturity and obtaining offspring from the sexually mature hatched chick which produce egg white containing the heterologous protein.

Abstract: The invention includes methods of producing proteins in transgenic avians containing nucleic acids in their genome which contain an exogenous lysozyme gene expression controlling nucleotide sequence which typically is linked to a polynucleotide encoding a heterologous polypeptide.
