This invention relates to a method for producing a protein of interest, comprising introducing a protein expression vector which comprises a gene fragment a gene fragment comprising a DNA encoding a protein of interest and a selectable marker gene and transposon sequences at both terminals of the gene fragment, into a suspension mammalian cell; integrating the gene fragment inserted between a pair of the transposon sequences, into a chromosome of the mammalian cell to obtain a mammalian cell capable of expressing the protein of interest; and suspension-culturing the mammalian cell; and a suspension mammalian cell capable of expressing the protein of interest.

Protein production method

This invention relates to a method for producing a protein of interest, comprising introducing an expression vector which comprises a gene fragment comprising a DNA encoding the protein of interest and a selectable marker gene and also comprises a pair of transposon sequences at both terminals of the gene fragment, into a suspension mammalian cell; integrating the gene fragment inserted between the pair of transposon sequences into a chromosome of the mammalian cell; obtaining a suspension mammalian cell producing the protein of interest; and suspension-culturing the suspension mammalian cell, and a suspension mammalian cell which expresses the protein of interest by the method.

Method for producing proteins

The present invention relates to a method for integrating a gene fragment inserted between a pair of transposon sequences into a chromosome of a mammalian cell, comprising introducing at least one expression vector which comprises a gene fragment comprising a DNA encoding a protein of interest and also comprises a pair of transposon sequences at both terminals of the gene fragment, into a suspension mammalian cell; and a method for producing the protein of interest comprising suspension-culturing a suspension mammalian cell which produces the protein of interest; and an a suspension mammalian cell which expresses the protein of interest.
