  • Publication number: 20240132566
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for producing a fusion protein of human serum albumin and human growth hormone. The method comprises (a) a step of culturing a mammalian cell capable of producing the protein in a serum-free medium and causing the protein to be secreted into the culture fluid, (b) a step of collecting a culture supernatant by removing the mammalian cell from the culture fluid, and (c) a step of purifying the protein from the culture supernatant by using column chromatography using a material to which an antibody having an affinity for the protein is bound as a stationary phase, column chromatography using a material having an affinity for phosphate group as a stationary phase, cation exchange column chromatography, and size exclusion column chromatography.

  • Patent number: 11945962
    Abstract: The present invention provides a cationic electrodeposition coating composition that has both good anti-cissing property and good coating film appearance. This is a cationic electrodeposition coating composition containing a silicone compound (A) having an SP value of more than 10.5 and 15.0 or less, and a film forming resin (B), wherein the silicone compound (A) is contained in an amount of 0.01 parts by mass or more and 4.5 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the resin solid content of the film forming resin (B). For example, the silicone compound (A) is at least one species selected from the group consisting of a polyether modified silicone compound (A-1), a polyester modified silicone compound (A-2), and a polyacrylic modified silicone compound (A-3).

  • Publication number: 20220186263
    Abstract: The present inventors have found that the use of a site-specific nuclease system which includes a combination of a molecule that simultaneously targets and cleaves one homology arm sequence of the donor DNA and the genomic sequence corresponding to the homology arm sequence, and a molecule that targets and cleaves the genomic region in the vicinity of the cleavage site by that molecule causes repair between genomic DNA and donor DNA through both non-homologous end joining and homologous recombination, making it possible to produce cells and organisms with knocked-in long donor sequences with high efficiency and accuracy.
