Cell Design Studio
SAFC® recognizes the need for biopharmaceutical customers to create robust, efficient cell lines — often a time-consuming and costly endeavor. More efficient cell lines can significantly reduce production costs. Outsourcing the engineering of production cell lines allows biopharmaceutical companies to focus their R&D efforts on developing new therapeutics.
The Cell Design Studio team is familiar with the needs and concerns specific to biopharmaceutical customers. This service includes:
| Project management support from inquiry to project completion |
| Documentation of cell handling and full traceability of raw materials |
Service offering specific to biopharmaceutical customers:
| Engineering of production cell lines using Zinc Finger Nucleases (ZFNs) |
| Identification of integration sites of recombinant genes in CHO cells for evaluation as "hot spots" |
| Design and application of custom shRNAs to validate potential engineering targets in production cell lines |
Examples of potential cell engineering projects include:
| Creating new CHO parental lines with increased culture longevity or engineering metabolic selection systems to increase productivity |
| Improving therapeutic efficacy by altering glycosylation pathways |
| Removing endogenous proteins to simplify downstream purification |
| Eliminate viral components in host cell |
| Targeted integration of recombinant genes into "hot spots" |
| Sequencing of CHO genes to facilitate ZFN design |
| Development of production cell lines using SAFC platform cell lines and expression systems |
