Genetic constructs that were characterized by a higher level of structural optimization of the gene for darbepoetin, higher gene dose and selection of promoter elements never used before for this gene investigation have been designed in order to optimize the darbepoetin production in CHO cells. A transient transfection of the CHO cells by the obtained constructs was performed. It was shown that each of the variable factors in the constructs influenced the darbepoetin gene expression. The construct containing a doubled dose of the darbepoetin synthetic gene with the optimized codon composition under the control of a CMV-EF1α chimerical promoter proved to be most efficient.

Key words:  CHO cells,  codon optimization,  darbepoetin-alpha,  erythropoetin,  expression vectors,  promoter.
