Abstract excerpt
Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells express only a subset of the glycosyltransferases activities known to exist. They do not express several fucosyltransferases, galactosyltransferases, sialyltransferases or N-acetylglucosaminyltransferases. However, following mutagenesis or transfection with large amounts of DNA, rare mutants that express a transferase activity de novo have been obtained. The first CHO mutant of...
