  • Patent number: 10194645
    Abstract: The present invention provides in a first aspect a mouse in which the ? (lambda) light chain locus has been functionally silenced. In one embodiment, the mouse ? light chain locus was functional silenced by deletion of gene segments coding for the ? light chain locus. In a further aspect, a mouse containing functionally silenced ? and ? (kappa) L chain loci was produced. The invention is useful for the production of antibodies, for example heterologous antibodies, including heavy chain only antibodies.

  • Publication number: 20100122358
    Abstract: The invention relates to mice having functionally silenced endogenous lambda (?) and kappa (?) L-chain loci, comprising antibody-producing cells in which the CH1 domain is functionally silenced, either via spontaneous processes in somatic antibody-producing cells or due to germline deletion of the CH1 domain. Mice of the invention are capable of producing H-chain-only antibody lacking a functional CH1 domain; transgenic human heavy-chain-only antibodies lacking a functional CH1 domain can be produced following insertion into the mouse of an artificial locus with human heavy chain V, D and J segments and a constant region, which is preferably a modified constant region with alterations in, around or upstream of a CH1 domain and/or removal of a CH1 domain.
