Abstract

Disclosed are targeting vectors comprising a first and second targeting arm directing the targeting vector to an endogenous mouse immunoglobulin heavy chain gene locus, and a contiguous sequence comprising unrearranged human VL gene segments, optionally with an unrearranged human JL gene segment; wherein homologous recombination with the targeting vector creates a hybrid immunoglobulin gene locus comprising the unrearranged human VL and optionally JL gene segments operably linked with an endogenous mouse immunoglobulin heavy chain gene locus. Further disclosed are isolated host cells comprising said targeting vectors and methods for making a genetically modified mouse using said targeting vectors.

Claims (13)

THE CLAIMS DEFINING THE INVENTION ARE AS FOLLOWS:
1. A targeting vector comprising a) a first targeting arm and a second targeting arm, wherein the first targeting arm and the second targeting arm direct the targeting vector to an endogenous mouse immunoglobulin heavy chain gene locus; and b) a contiguous sequence comprising (i) unrearranged human V gene segments, or (ii) unrearranged human V gene segments and an unrearranged human JL gene segment, wherein homologous recombination with the targeting vector creates a hybrid immunoglobulin gene locus comprising (i) the unrearranged human V gene segments operably linked with an endogenous immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region nucleic acid sequence comprising a CH sequence, at the endogenous mouse immunoglobulin heavy chain gene locus, or (ii) the unrearranged human VL gene segments and the unrearranged human JL gene segment operably linked with an endogenous immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region nucleic acid sequence comprising a CH1 sequence, at the endogenous mouse immunoglobulin heavy chain gene locus.
2. The targeting vector of claim 1, wherein the unrearranged human V gene segments comprise a human ? segment, a human ? segment, or a combination thereof.
3. The targeting vector of claim 1, wherein the endogenous immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region nucleic acid sequence further comprises a sequence selected from the group consisting of a hinge sequence, a CH2 sequence, a CH3 sequence, and a combination thereof.
4. The targeting vector of claim 1, wherein, upon homologous recombination, the unrearranged human VL gene segments and the unrearranged human JL gene segment replace an endogenous mouse heavy chain variable V gene segment and an endogenous mouse heavy chain JH gene segment, respectively, at the endogenous mouse immunoglobulin heavy chain gene locus.
5. The targeting vector of claim 4, wherein the unrearranged human V gene segments and the unrearranged human JL gene segment replace all functional mouse heavy chain V , D , and J gene segments of the endogenous mouse heavy chain H H H gene locus.
6. The targeting vector of claim 1, wherein the unrearranged human VL gene segments comprise only human V ? gene segments and the unrearranged human J gene segment is a human J ? gene segment.
7. The targeting vector of claim 1, wherein the targeting vector comprises at least six or more unrearranged human light chain VL gene segments and at least one unrearranged human JL gene segment.
8. The targeting vector of claim 1, wherein the contiguous sequence is selected from the group consisting of (i) hV ?4-1 through hV ?1-6 and J ?1, (ii) hV ?4-1 through hV ?1-6 and J ?1 through J ?2, (iii) hV ?4-1 through hV ?1-6 and J ?1 through J ?3, (iv) hV ?4-1 through hV ?1-6 and J ?1 through J ?4, (v) hV ?4-1 through hV ?1-6 and J ?1 through J ?5, (vi) hV ?3-7 through hV ?1-16, (vii) hV ?1-17 through hV ?2-30, (viii) hV ?3-31 through hV ?2-40, and (ix) a combination thereof.
9. The targeting vector of claim 1, wherein the hybrid immunoglobulin gene locus lacks any functional heavy chain D segment between the unrearranged human V gene segments and the unrearranged human JL gene segment.
10. The targeting vector of claim 1, wherein each of the unrearranged human VL gene segments and the unrearranged JL gene segment comprises recombination signal sequences that allow the unrearranged human V gene segments and the unrearranged human JL gene segment to recombine to form a rearranged human immunoglobulin light chain variable region (VL/JL) nucleotide sequence linked to the endogenous immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region nucleic acid sequence at an endogenous mouse immunoglobulin heavy chain locus
11. An isolated cell comprising the targeting vector of any one of claims 1-10.
12. A cell according to claim 11, wherein the cell is selected from an embryonic stem (ES) cell, a B cell, and a hybridoma.
13. A method of making a genetically modified mouse comprising in its germline unrearranged human immunoglobulin light chain variable region (VL) gene segments and an unrearranged human immunoglobulin light chain joining (J ) gene segment operably linked with a heavy chain constant region nucleic acid sequence, the method comprising: (a) modifying a totipotent mouse cell to include a targeting vector according to any one of claims 1-10 by homologous recombination such that the totipotent mouse cell comprises a hybrid immunoglobulin locus comprising unrearranged human VL gene segments and an unrearranged human JL gene segment operably linked with an endogenous immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region nucleic acid sequence at the endogenous mouse immunoglobulin heavy chain gene locus; (b) maintaining the totipotent mouse cell under suitable conditions to develop into a genetically modified mouse comprising in its germline the hybrid immunoglobulin locus.
