چکیده

The potential of insect cell cultures and larvae infected with recombinant baculoviruses to produce authentic recombinant glycoproteins cloned from mammalian sources was investigated. A comparison was made of the N-linked glycans attached to secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) produced in four species of insect larvae and their derived cell lines plus one additional insect cell line and larvae of one additional species. These data survey N-linked oligosaccharides produced in four families and six genera of the order Lepidoptera. Recombinant SEAP expressed by recombinant isolates of Autographa californica and Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedroviruses was purified from cell culture medium, larval hemolymph or larval homogenates by phosphate affinity chromatography. The N-linked oligosaccharides were released with PNGase-F, labeled with 8-aminonaphthalene-1-3-6-trisulfonic acid, fractionated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and analyzed by fluorescence imaging. The oligosaccharide structures were confirmed with exoglycosidase digestions. Recombinant SEAP produced in cell lines of Lymantria dispar (IPLB-LdEIta), Heliothis virescens (IPLB-HvT1), and Bombyx mori (BmN) and larvae of Spodoptera frugiperda, Trichoplusia ni , H.virescens , B.mori , and Danaus plexippus contained oligosaccharides that were structurally identical to the 10 oligosaccharides attached to SEAP produced in T.ni cell lines. The oligosaccharide structures were all mannose-terminated. Structures containing two or three mannose residues, with and without core fucosylation, constituted more than 75% of the oligosaccharides from the cell culture and larval samples.

Expression of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol-linked complement-inhibiting protein CD59 antigen in insect cells using a baculovirus vector.

CD59 antigen (CD59) is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked membrane glycoprotein which protects human cells from complement-mediated lysis. Here we report the expression of functionally active CD59 in Spodoptera frugiperda insect cells using a baculovirus vector. Recombinant CD59 was expressed abundantly on the surface of the insect cells and protected the cells from lysis by human comp...

The Relationship of Secretion and Activity of Recombinant Factor IX with N-Glycosylation

Background:  Human coagulation factor IX (hFIX) is a glycoprotein with two N-glycosylation sites at the activation peptide. Since the activation peptide is removed in mature hFIX, the exact role of N-glycosylation is unclear. To investigate the role of N-glycosylation in the secretion and activity of hFIX, we inhibited N-glycosylation by tunicamycin in the stable Human Embryonic Kidney (HEK)- c...

Baculoviral Expression of Influenza A Virus (H1N1 New Caledonia) Neuraminidase in Insect Cells

Background and Aims: Each year, the influenza virus causes moderate to severe infections with a high prevalence throughout the world. Accordingly, an influenza vaccine that ensures protection with only a single dose would be a much more cost effective approach to influenza prophylaxis. Generation of Influenza non-replicating virus-like particles (VLP) in baculoviral expression system is an attr...

Recombinant Expression of the Non-glycosylated Extracellular Domain of Human Transforming Growth Factorβ Type II Receptor Using the Baculovirus Expression System in Sf21 Insect Cells

Transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ1, β2, and β3) are 25 kDa disulfide-linked homodimers that regulate many aspects of cellular functions, consist of proliferation, differentiation, adhesion and extracellular matrix formation. TGFβs mediate their biological activities by binding of growth factor ligand to two related, functionally distinct, single-pass transmembrane receptor kinases, known as...

Microheterogeneity of the oligosaccharides carried by the recombinant bovine lactoferrin expressed in Mamestra brassicae cells.

The development of therapeutic glycoprotein production using the baculovirus expression system depends on the ability of insect cell lines to reproduce site specific mammalian-like N-glycans. A combination of 1H-NMR and mass spectrometry techniques (MALD-MS, ES-MS, and CID-MS-MS) allowed us to elucidate the N-linked oligosaccharides microheterogeneity on three different N-glycosylation sites, A...
