Gene amplification methods play a crucial role in establishment of cells that produce high levels of recombinant protein. However, the stability of such cell lines and the level of recombinant protein produced continue to be suboptimal. Here, we used a combination of a human artificial chromosome (HAC) vector and initiation region (IR)/matrix attachment region (MAR) gene amplification method to establish stable cells that produce high levels of recombinant protein. Amplification of Enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) was induced on a HAC carrying  EGFP  gene and IR/MAR sequences (EGFP MAR-HAC) in CHO DG44 cells. The expression level of EGFP increased approximately 6-fold compared to the original HAC without IR/MAR sequences. Additionally, anti-vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF ) antibody on a HAC (VEGF MAR-HAC) was also amplified by utilization of this IR/MAR-HAC system, and anti-VEGF antibody levels were approximately 2-fold higher compared with levels in control cells without IR/MAR. Furthermore, the expression of anti-VEGF antibody with VEGF MAR-HAC in CHO-K1 cells increased 2.3-fold compared with that of CHO DG44 cells. Taken together, the IR/MAR-HAC system facilitated amplification of a gene of interest on the HAC vector, and could be used to establish a novel cell line that stably produced protein from mammalian cells.
