Recombinant protein technology emerged from a series of foundational discoveries in molecular biology during the mid-20th century. These began with the identification of DNA as the carrier of genetic information in the 1940s, followed by the one gene–one enzyme hypothesis by Beadle and Tatum, and culminated in Watson and Crick's 1953 model of DNA structure, aided by X-ray diffraction data from Rosalind Franklin.

Recombinant antibody (rAb) production in mammalian cells is a critical technology for biologics development. Mammalian systems are preferred for their ability to perform human-like post-translational modifications (PTMs), particularly glycosylation, as well as their capacity for proper folding and assembly of complex, disulfide-rich proteins such as immunoglobulins.
