| abstract |
The present application relates to the field of glyco-engineering, more specifically to eukaryotic cells wherein both an endoglucosaminidase is present, and made deficient in UDP-galactose 4-epimerase (GalE). Typically, a glycoprotein is also present in the cells. These cells can be used to deglycosylate or partly deglycosylate the (exogenous) glycoprotein, in particular without the need for adding an extra enzyme. Methods are also provided for the application of these cells in protein production. |
