Gxene Biotech has conventional mammalian expression systems, including cell lines such as FreeStyle 293-F cell line (Thermo Fisher) and Expi CHO-S (Thermo Fisher). Combined with our designed expression vectors (containing a full-length CMV promoter and an optimized secretion signal peptide sequence), we can provide customers with recombinant protein mammalian cell expression and preparation at expression levels up to 1 g/L. Gxene Biotech has been dedicated to recombinant protein expression and preparation research for many years. Our scientists have rich experience in mammalian recombinant protein expression, fermentation, and purification, and can quickly develop customized mammalian cell protein expression strategies for different customers.
The mammalian protein expression system is suitable for scientists' in vitro recombinant expression needs for native-conformation proteins, such as glycosylation modification and phosphorylation modification. Using the mammalian protein expression system and high-density fermentation culture technology, Gxene Biotech's scientists can achieve recombinant antibody fermentation at expression levels up to 6.3 g/L, suitable for high-level expression fermentation of recombinant monoclonal antibody drugs. Our cell fermentation and culture personnel have all undergone strict GMP system training and quality control system training and can provide customers with traceable protein expression and preparation documentation records.
Gxene Biotech can provide customers with recombinant proteins produced in strict accordance with GMP, including cell seed bank source documentation records, cell seed lot testing, quality control of animal-derived components, standardized cell culture and transformation operating procedures, and a full set of GE-provided purification resins and equipment. For our large-scale fermentation, in addition to using fermenters, for 3–10 L adherent mammalian cell fermentation scales, we can directly use disposable cell culture factories for cell fermentation and protein expression preparation (customers need to provide lentivirus or adenovirus, etc.). This technology platform completes fermentation and transformation in one step, greatly shortening the turnaround time.
