Abstract
The invention concerns human cells which, due to an activation of the endogenous human EPO gene, are able to produce EPO in an adequate quantity and purity to enable a cost-effective production of human EPO as a pharmaceutical preparation. Furthermore the invention concerns a process for the production of such human EPO-producing cells, DNA constructs for the activation of the endogenous EPO gene in human cells as well as a process for the large-scale production of EPO in human cells.
