ABSTRACT:
This invention comprises of construction of a recombinant CHO cell line that produces functional mannose binding lectin (MBL) and of special uses of MBL. Specially, use of MBL for development of a therapeutic agent for patients having systemic infection with viruses, bacteria, or fungus is described. More specifically, MBL as a trigger for complement activation and MBL so formulated to activate complement system for the purpose of treating patients with microbial infection.
