Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to develop a new technology for utilizing transgenic chickens as a bioreactor for the production of biopharmaceuticals at low cost. Previously, we developed avian embryo culture method, high-efficiency gene transfer using viral vector, and oviduct-specific gene expression system, and successfully generated transgenic chickens and quails that produce recombinant proteins such as antibodies in eggs and body tissues. In this research, we have developed a platform technology for biopharmaceutical production using transgenic chickens by fusing the genome editing technology, which has made remarkable progress in recent years, with the cell engineering technology we developed.
