Temperature-induced expression of human-mouse chimeric Fab.

The temperature-induced expression vector pHZ01 with lambda PRPL promoter for the efficient expression of human-mouse chimeric Fab was constructed. Three kinds of chimeric Fab were expressed in E. coli: anti-prostate specific antigen (PSA) chimeric Fab, anti-lysozyme (HEL) chimeric Fab, and anti-tetanus toxoid (TT) chimeric Fab. All the soluble chimeric Fabs expressed showed specific antigen-binding activities.
