Event Overview:

Traditionally, glycosylation optimization was achieved by varying media or cell line conditions. This approach can have drawbacks like low glycosylation, inconsistent glycosylation, reduced protein yield, and being more difficult to implement in manufacturing.

A new alternative – in-vitro glycoengineering (IVGE) has been developed that can enrich certain glycoforms using enzymatic reactions with clear kinetics. IVGE decouples glycosylation from fermentation allowing you greater control of each. In addition, predictable outcomes have been demonstrated.

In this webcast, learn how greater control of glycosylation has been achieved while allowing maximum protein expression. Case studies will demonstrate how this was achieved in several different antibodies as well as non-antibody proteins.

Key Learning Objectives:

  • Differences between IVGE and traditional cell line development and fermentation optimization
  • Understand the benefits of using IVGE
  • Learn the process of in vitro glycoengineering

Speakers:

Hua Tu, Ph.D., Founder and CEO, LakePharma
