  • Publication number: 20170342390
    Abstract: The present invention relates to cell lines that are genetically modified to overexpress a ?-galactoside ?-2,3-sialyltransferase 1 (ST3Gal1), preferably human ST3Gal1, which can be used for the production of recombinant glycoproteins having highly or fully sialylated O-linked GalNAc glycans (GalNAc O-glycans), preferably core 1 GalNAc O-glycans, as well as to respective recombinant glycoproteins. Further, the present invention relates to respective methods of expressing recombinant glycoproteins, methods of increasing the degree of sialylation of recombinant glycoproteins, and methods of decreasing the micro-heterogeneity of GalNAc O-glycans. Finally, the present invention relates to respective uses of the above cell lines for the production of recombinant glycoproteins, for increasing the degree of sialylation of recombinant glycoproteins, and for decreasing the micro-heterogeneity of O-linked GalNAc glycans of recombinant glycoproteins.
