Popis: N-linked Oligosaccharides on a recombinant protein play a critical role in the metabolic behavior of the molecule. The extent of glycosylation on the protein can determine clearance rates and the ultimate pharmacokinctic profile. The amount of terminal sialylation is particularly important in this respect. Changes in the glyeosylation pattern due to changes in culture conditions will be shown for a model glyeoprotein produced in CHO cells. The parameter determining the sialic acid content will be discussed together with a method to control for this type of heterogeneity.
