Flexibility to support mammalian cell line development across diverse host systems

At 53Biologics, we collaborate with trusted partners to offer cell line development and banking services for a wide variety of mammalian hosts. Our flexible approach ensures that each client can work with the most suitable system for their specific protein, whether a well-established line such as CHO or HEK293, or more innovative cell platforms designed for challenging biologics.

Your mammalian cell line development project is ready to start

Mammalian Cell Line Development Options

From clone selection to commercial readiness, our integrated approach standardizes every step—bank design, controlled expansion, aseptic filling, full characterization, and qualified long-term storage—so you start development and manufacturing on a reliable, compliant substrate. The payoff: fewer surprises in scale-up, smoother tech transfer, and faster progress to critical milestones.

CHO cells

Industry gold standard for monoclonal antibodies and recombinant proteins. Robust performance, scalability, and high yields (>8 g/L with advanced lines like CHOExpress®). Variants available for afucosylated antibodies (CHO Flow®) or high-yield stable expression (CHOnamite®)

HEK293 Cells

Excellent for transient expression and complex proteins. Suitable for authentic human post-translational modifications (glycosylation). Advanced systems such as HEKExpress® (up to 9 g/L and more than 4 months stability) and HEK2Express® (T-antigen free, large-scale production)

Other Hosts

Custom solutions available depending on client requirements. Access to cutting-edge lines designed for challenging proteins. GlycoExpress® (GEX®) ensures authentic human-like glycosylation patterns, offering clear advantages for therapeutic proteins where precise glycoforms are critical.
