ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method of expressing proteins in higher eukaryotes in vitro. In general, the invention sets forth a method of expressing exogenous proteins as fusion partners with the immunoglobulin molecules of avian species specifically chickens. The technology involves, in one embodiment, retroviral-mediated gene transfer and transplantation of stem cells from the Bursa of Fabricus in chickens.
