1. A method for preparing a recombinant immunoglobulin library, comprising:
- providing primary immune cells from at least one mammalian donor;
isolating in a plurality of monodisperse droplets single immune cells from said primary immune cells;
generating a plurality of recombinant fusion polynucleotides each comprising a first polynucleotide encoding a heavy chain variable domain and a second polynucleotide encoding a light chain variable domain, wherein said heavy chain variable domain and light chain variable domain on each of said plurality of recombinant fusion polynucleotides are a cognate pair from one of said isolated primary immune cells, wherein each of said plurality of recombinant fusion polynucleotides further comprise a linker polynucleotide linking said first and second polynucleotides;
circularizing each of said plurality of linear recombinant fusion polynucleotides; and
inserting a third polynucleotide comprising a sequence encoding a promoter and a sequence encoding a constant region between said first and second polynucleotide in each of said circularized recombinant fusion polynucleotides, thereby generating at least 1,000 unique recombinant immunoglobulin expression constructs, thereby generating a recombinant immunoglobulin library.
