    Abstract: System for producing a nucleic acid construct of interest, said system comprising: a set of n entry DNAs numbered 1 to n, n being an integer of at least 2, each of said n entry DNAs comprising in this order: (i) a type IIs restriction endonuclease recognition site followed by the cleavage site thereof; (ii) a sequence portion linking the cleavage site of said recognition site of item (i) with the cleavage site of the recognition site of the following item (iii), and (iii) a cleavage site of a further type IIs restriction endonuclease recognition site followed by the recognition site of said cleavage site; the cleavage sites of the type IIs restriction endonuclease recognition sites of item (iii) of entry DNAs 1 to n−1 are complementary to the cleavage sites of the type IIs restriction endonuclease recognition sites of item (i) of entry DNAs 2 to n, respectively; the cleavage site of the type IIs restriction endonuclease recognition site of item (iii) of entry DNA n is complementary to the cleavage site of the type IIs restriction endonuclease recognition site of item (i) of entry DNA 1 for allowing annealing of complementary single-stranded overhangs formed by restriction at recognition site (i) of entry DNA 1 and at recognition site (iii) of entry DNA n; said system further comprising a destination vector comprising in this order: (I) a type IIs restriction endonuclease recognition site followed by the cleavage site thereof; (II) a vector backbone preferably comprising a selectable marker gene, said vector backbone linking the cleavage sites of said recognition sites of items (I) and the following item (III); (III) a further cleavage site of a type IIs restriction endonuclease recognition site followed by the recognition site of said cleavage site, and (IV) optionally, an insert between the recognition sites of item (III) and item (I); said cleavage sites of items (I) and (III) being different and non-complementary, said recognition sites of items (I) and (III) being preferably recognitions sites of the same endonuclease.

    Abstract: Compositions, methods and uses of a recombinant virus and/or recombinant viral vector encoding a distinct antibody or antibody fragment generated from high-diversity nucleic acid library are presented. Preferably, the recombinant virus is genetically modified, low immunogenic virus, for example, an E2b-deleted adenovirus. The high-diversity nucleic acid library comprises or is derived from (1) a VH-CDR1/2 sub-library, (2) a plurality of VH-CDR3 sub-libraries, and (3) a VL sub-library, each of which comprises a plurality of members. Preferably, each member of the sub-libraries comprises at least one random cassette that has a plurality of degenerate base positions. In an especially preferred embodiment, at least portions of at least two members of the VH-CDR1/2 sub-library, the plurality of VH-CDR3 sub-libraries, and the VL sub-library are recombined to form an expression library member in an expression library, where each member of the expression library encodes a distinct antibody or antibody fragment.
