Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Genetically modified mice are provided that express human λ variable (hVλ) sequences, including mice that express hVλ sequences from an endogenous mouse λ light chain locus, mice that express hVλ sequences from an endogenous mouse κ light chain locus, and mice that express hVλ sequences from a transgene or an episome wherein the hVλ sequence is linked to a mouse constant sequence. Mice are provided that are a source of somatically mutated human λ variable sequences useful for making antigen-binding proteins. Compositions and methods for making antigen-binding proteins that comprise human λ variable sequences, including human antibodies, are provided.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A method for cloning a λ light chain variable domain, comprising the steps of: (a) obtaining a cell from a transgenic mouse whose genome comprises an endogenous λ light chain immunoglobulin locus comprising: i) a deletion of a first endogenous Vλ-Jλ-Cλ gene cluster; and ii) a replacement of a fragment of endogenous Vλ and Jλ gene segments in a second endogenous Vλ-Jλ-Cλ gene cluster with human Vλ and Jλ gene segments, wherein the human Vλ and Jλ gene segments compr…
