Zusammenfassung:Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to recombinant alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) proteins, including variants of human AAT with individually introduced mutations, compositions containing such recombinant AAT proteins and carriers, expression plasmids or vectors and host cells that express such recombinant AAT proteins, methods of producing such recombinant AAT proteins, and methods of treating AAT deficiency-related diseases, disorders, and conditions or diseases, disorders, and conditions resulting in protease-induced tissue damage in a subject in need thereof with the recombinant AAT proteins and/or recombinant AAT protein compositions described here. The recombinant AAT proteins derived from mammalian host cells as produced by the methods described here may be produced in large quantities, without any animal components, i.e., highly pure, highly glycosylated, and may be advantageously used over plasma-derived AAT.
