Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides improvements in the expression cloning method for isolating novel cDNA clones. In particular, in the expression cloning method comprising the steps of preparing a cDNA library from a cell that expresses a desired protein; inserting the cDNA library into an expression vector; inserting the cDNA library into bacterial cells and culturing the bacterial cells to produce individual bacterial colonies; collecting pools of a predetermined number of individual bacterial colonies; isolating the cDNAs contained in the pools; expressing proteins encoded by the cDNAs; and detecting the desired protein, positive clones may be efficiently and cost-effectively obtained by collecting pools of about 100 individual bacterial colonies and expressing proteins encoded by the cDNAs in the pools in vitro.
