Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present application relates to the field of glyco-engineering, more specifically to glyco-engineering of Fc-containing molecules, such as antibodies. It is shown herein that Fc-containing molecules with a specific glycosylation pattern have a considerably longer circulating half-life in vivo, without having an altered binding affinity for their respective antigen. This has therapeutic implications in reducing the frequency with which these molecules need to be administered, without affecting therapeutic efficacy. Also, cells are provided that can produce the Fc molecules with the desired glycosylation pattern.
