Abstract
This disclosure provides, among other things, a transgenic chicken. In some embodiments, the transgenic chicken comprises B cells in which the endogenous immunoglobulin heavy chain locus comprises: (a) a functional immunoglobulin heavy chain gene comprising a nucleic acid encoding a heavy chain variable domain in which the CDR3 is in the range of 30-60 amino acids in length and comprises at least 2 cysteine residues; and (b) a plurality of pseudogenes that are operably linked to said functional immunoglobulin heavy chain gene and that donate, by gene conversion, nucleotide sequence to the nucleic acid encoding the heavy chain variable domain of (a), wherein the pseudogenes are upstream or downstream of the functional immunoglobulin heavy chain gene.
