Abstract:
The present invention is within the field of industrial protein production. The invention provides a novel expression system using dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) as a selection marker in combination with leflunomide or a metabolite thereof, notably for use in mammalian cell lines. Expression vectors encoding DHODH, cell lines comprising said vectors and methods of producing recombinant proteins are also provided.
