Abstract
During large-scale manufacturing of an IgG1 monoclonal antibody in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, reduction of the antibody's disulfide bonds was observed. We present evidence that mammalian thioredoxin 1 (TXN1) is the terminal enzyme responsible for this reduction event. We demonstrate a marked prevention of IgG1 disulfide bond reduction in a cell-density dependent manner by knocking down expression of TXN1 via lentivirus transduction of short hairpin RNA.Entities:
