| abstract |
The invention provides a nucleic acid cassette comprising components in the following structure: A-B-C, wherein “A” is a nucleic acid sequence encoding a light chain of a first antibody (or antigen binding domain thereof), “B” is a nucleic acid sequence encoding a 2A peptide, “C” is a nucleic acid sequence encoding a heavy chain of a second antibody (or antigen binding domain thereof), and “-” is a phosphodiester or phosphorothioate bond. Also provided is a nucleic acid cassette with the structure A-p-B-C, where “p” is a nucleic acid encoding a protease recognition site, Also provided are methods for making recombinant antibodies using the nucleic acid cassette of the invention, cells and vector comprising the nucleic acid cassette of the invention, and kits for making the nucleic acid cassette of the invention. |
