Antigen–specific human monoclonal antibodies from mice engineered with human Ig heavy and light chain YACs

TL;DR: This work describes a strategy for producing human monoclonal antibodies in mice by introducing large segments of the human heavy and κ light chain loci contained on yeast artificial chromosomes into the mouse germline, which should provide insight into the adoptive human antibody response and permit the development of fully human monocolonal antibodies with therapeutic potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional transplant of megabase human immunoglobulin loci recapitulates human antibody response in mice

TL;DR: These results underscore the importance of the large Ig fragments with multiple V genes for restoration of a normal humoral immune response, and suggest that Ig-inactivated mice are likely to be a valuable tool for the generation of therapeutic antibodies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Construction and characterization of a yeast artificial chromosome library containing seven haploid human genome equivalents.

TL;DR: An inverse relationship between YAC insert size and transformation efficiency is found and indicates that high molecular mass human DNA fragments from partial restriction digests and ligation with the YAC vector in agarose contain the equivalent of approximately seven haploid human genomes.
