A temperature sensitive secretory line, MadIA214, was selected from mutagenized Chinese hamster ovary cells that express two heterologous export marker proteins: a secretory form of the human placental alkaline phosphatase (SeAP), and the Kd heavy chain of mouse MHC class I. SeAP secretion in MadIA214 was extremely reduced at elevated temperature (40 degrees C), while the export of functional H-2Kd molecules to the plasma membrane was only slightly affected. This mutant constitutively transferred onto newly synthesized proteins a truncated oligosaccharide core, Man5GlcNAc2, which was monoglucosylated in the protein-bound form. Nevertheless, the final oligosaccharide-structures associated to mature SeAP and H-2Kd were similar in mutant and wild-type glycoproteins. The inaccessibility in MadIA214 endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of one or more components required for oligosaccharide chain elongation is supported by the reconstitution of a correct core structure, obtained after disruption of cellular compartments, but not after cell permeabilisation or blocking ER-to-Golgi transport. The increased association of the ER-chaperone BiP with immature SeAP correlated with the thermodependent decrease in SeAP secretion. The retention of incompletely folded polypeptides in MadIA214 parallels both a marked ER-dilation and an important glycoprotein degradation documented by the formation of soluble oligomannosides with one GlcNAc residue. Our data provide the first in vivo evidence that the initial step in N-glycosylation differentially governs glycoprotein maturation, transport and degradation.

Mutant cell lines defective in the biosynthesis of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) described to date were isolated by selecting cells which no longer expressed one or more endogenous GPI-anchored proteins on their surface. In this study, a new mutant in this pathway was isolated from ethylmethanesulphonate-mutagenized Chinese hamster ovary cells stably transfected with human placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP) as a marker of GPI-anchored proteins. A three-step protocol was employed. In the first step, cells with decreased surface expression of PLAP were selected by four rounds of complement-mediated lysis with an anti-(alkaline phosphatase) antibody. The surviving cells were cloned by limiting dilution and those with low levels of total alkaline phosphatase activity were selected in the second step. Finally, the ability of each clone to synthesize the first three intermediates in GPI biosynthesis in vitro was assessed to determine which cells with low alkaline phosphatase activity harboured a defect in one of these reactions. Of 230 potential mutants, one was defective in the second step of GPI biosynthesis. Microsomes from this mutant, designated G9PLAP.85, were completely unable to deacetylate either endogenous GlcNAc-phosphatidylinositol (PI) synthesized from UDP[6-3H]GlcNAc or exogenous GlcNAc-PI added directly to the membranes. Complementation analysis with the Thy-1-deficient murine lymphoma cells demonstrated that G9PLAP.85 has a molecular defect distinct from these previously described mutants. Therefore, these results suggest that mutants in GPI biosynthesis could be selected from almost any cell line expressing a GPI-anchored marker protein.

Most of clinical approved protein-based drugs or under in clinical trial have a profound impact in the treatment of critical diseases. The mammalian eukaryotic cells culture approaches, particularly the CHO (Chinese Hamster Ovary) cells are mainly used in the biopharmaceutical industry for the mass-production of therapeutic protein. Recent advances in CHO cell bioprocessing to yield recombinant proteins and monoclonal antibodies have enabled the expression of quality protein. The developments of cell lines are possible to upgrade specific productivity. As a result, it holds an interesting area for academic as well as industrial researchers around the world. This review will concentrate on the recent progress of the mammalian CHO cells culture technology and the future scope of further development for the mass-production of protein therapeutics.
