Abstract

According to a first aspect of the invention, a method for the generation of a cell line is provided, comprising the steps of (a) providing a plurality of mammalian B cells, wherein each of the plurality of B cells comprises a transgenic genomic DNA sequence encoding a marker protein inserted into an endogenous immunoglobulin locus comprised in said B cell, and wherein the transgenic genomic DNA sequence is amenable to cleavage by a site directed nuclease, particularly Cas9; (b) replacing the transgenic genomic DNA sequence encoding a marker protein with a second transgenic DNA sequence encoding a protein of interest; (c) sorting B cells based on the presence or absence of the marker protein; and (d) collecting B cells in which the marker protein is absent.
