Galactosylation of human erythropoietin produced by chimeric chickens expressing galactosyltransferase

Human erythropoietin produced in the egg white of chimeric chicken contains N-glycan with lower amounts of terminal galactose and sialic acid; therefore, the chicken galactosyltransferase gene was introduced together with the human erythropoietin gene by a retroviral vector. We found that erythropoi...

Zusammenfassung:Human erythropoietin produced in the egg white of chimeric chicken contains N-glycan with lower amounts of terminal galactose and sialic acid; therefore, the chicken galactosyltransferase gene was introduced together with the human erythropoietin gene by a retroviral vector. We found that erythropoietin accumulated in the egg white was partially galactosylated.
