Synthetic gene networks in mammalian cells.

abstract：:Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell-based bioproduction of recombinant proteins can now routinely achieve >5 g/L titers in fed-batches. This progress is partly due to the rapid adaptability of CHO cells to various genetic manipulations and changing process conditions. An inherently plastic genome allows for this adaptabi...
