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...
