Résumé

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are the commonly used mammalian host system to manufacture recombinant proteins including monoclonal antibodies. However unfavorable non-human glycoprofile displayed on CHO-produced monoclonal antibodies have negative impacts on product quality, pharmacokinetics, and therapeutic efficiency. Glycoengineering such as genetic elimination of genes involved in glycosylation pathway in CHO cells is a viable solution but constrained due to longer timeline and laborious workflow. Here, in this proof-of-concept (PoC) study, we present a novel approach coined CellEDIT to engineer CHO cells by intranuclear delivery of the CRISPR components to single cells using the FluidFM technology. Co-injection of CRISPR system targeting BAX, DHFR, and FUT8 directly into the nucleus of single cells, enabled us to generate triple knockout CHO-K1 cell lines within a short time frame. The proposed technique assures the origin of monoclonality without the requirement of limiting dilution, cell sorting or positive selection. Furthermore, the approach is compatible to develop both single and multiple knockout clones (FUT8, BAX, and DHFR) in CHO cells. Further analyses on single and multiple knockout clones confirmed the targeted genetic disruption and altered protein expression. The knockout CHO-K1 clones showed the persistence of gene editing during the subsequent passages, compatible with serum free chemically defined media and showed equivalent transgene expression like parental clone.
