Histological samples and total non-acid glycosphingolipids were prepared from small intestine of human cadavers with the Le(a+b+) and Le(a–b–) nonsecretor phenotypes and contrasted with the more common Lewis phenotypes. Glycolipid fractions were analysed by thin-layer chromatography and tested for Lewis activity with monoclonal antibodies reactive to Lewis epitopes. Paraffin-embedded small intestine sections were also fluorescently immunostained with anti-Lewis antibodies. Unlike the common Lewis positive phenotypes, we were immunochemically able to demonstrate the copresence of large amounts of Lea and Leb glycolipids in the Le(a+b+) sample. In addition we demonstrated increased formation of extended Lewis structures in this phenotype. By immunohistochemistry Lea, Leb and type 1 precursor chain epitopes could be demonstrated in the brush border. These results show that the expression of the Le(a+b+) phenotype at the erythrocyte phenotyping level parallels the small intestinal expression of this phenotype, and the patterns of Lewis antigen expressions are unique to this phenotype. By immunohistochemistry and immunochemistry we also demonstrated the presence of trace amounts of Lewis active glycoconjugates in the small intestine of the Le(a–b–) nonsecretor and Le(a+b–) samples. In the Le(a–b–) nonsecretor Lea and Leb activity was absent and type 1 precursor was present in brush border, while Leb activity was immunohistologically demonstrated in the Golgi apparatus of the deep glands. Trace amounts of both Lea and Leb glycolipids were identified in this sample. In parallel trace Leb activity could also be detected in the glycolipids of the Le(a+b–) sample and could be immunohistologically demonstrated to be fully expressed in occasional cells in the deep glands of the small intestine, a pattern quite dissimilar to that of the Le(a–b–) nonsecretor. The results in this paper show that the expression of Lewis glycoconjugates in the small intestine parallel the expression of Lewis erythrocyte phenotypes. However, inappropriate Lewis activity is also seen in individuals of other phenotypes and the mechanisms by which these Lewis antigens are made appears to be different for different phenotypes.Abbreviations FITC

The characterization of oligosaccharides in the feces of breast-fed babies is a valuable tool for monitoring the gastrointestinal fate of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). In the present study we monitored fecal oligosaccharide profiles together with the HMO-profiles of the respective breast milks up to six months postpartum, by means of capillary electrophoresis-laser induced fluorescence detection and mass spectrometry. Eleven mother/child pairs were included. Mother’s secretor- and Lewis-type included all combinations [Le(a−b+), Le(a+b−), Le(a−b−)]. The fecal HMO-profiles in the first few months of life are either predominantly composed of neutral or acidic HMOs and are possibly effected by the HMO-fingerprint in the respective breast milk. Independent of the initial presence of acidic or neutral fecal HMOs, a gradual change to blood-group specific oligosaccharides was observed. Their presence pointed to a gastrointestinal degradation of the feeding-related HMOs, followed by conjugation with blood group specific antigenic determinants present in the gastrointestinal mucus layer. Eleven of these ‘hybrid’-oligosaccharides were annotated in this study. When solid food was introduced, no HMOs and their degradation- and metabolization products were recovered in the fecal samples. 相似文献

We have identified a novel oligosaccharide in human milk that is a fucosyl derivative of sialyltetrasaccharide c (NeuAc alpha 2-6Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-3Gal beta 1-4Glc). This oligosaccharide was purified by affinity chromatography on a column of immobilized Ricinus communis I lectin. Structural analyses of radiolabeled oligosaccharides by exoglycosidase digestions, binding by specific anti-carbohydrate antibodies, and analysis of the 3H-labeled glucitol derivative obtained after permethylation and hydrolysis are consistent with the following proposed structure. (formula; see text) The analyses of human milk sialylpentasaccharides from donors typed as Le(a-,b+), Le(a+,b-), and Le(a-,b-) secretor confirmed the secretor gene-dependent expression of the sialylated lacto-N-fucopentaose I (Fuc alpha 1-2Gal beta 1-3[NeuAc alpha 2-6]GlcNAc beta 1-3Gal beta 1-4Glc) and the Lewis gene-dependent expression of the sialylated lacto-N-fucopentaose II (NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-3[Fuc alpha 1-4]GlcNAc beta 1-4Glc). However, the presence of this novel oligosaccharide in human milk is not dependent on the expression of either the secretor gene or the Lewis gene-specified fucosyltransferases. 相似文献

To test the hypothesis that human milk fucosyloligosaccharides are part of an innate immune system, we addressed whether their expression (1) depends on maternal genotype and (2) protects breastfed infants from pathogens. Thus the relationship between maternal Lewis blood group type and milk oligosaccharide expression and between variable oligosaccharide expression and risk of diarrhea in their infants was studied in a cohort of 93 Mexican breastfeeding mother-infant pairs. Milk of the 67 Le(a-b+) mothers contained more LNF-II (Le(a)) and 3-FL (Le(x)) (oligosaccharides whose fucose is exclusively alpha 1,3- or alpha 1,4-linked) than milk from the 24 Le(a-b-) mothers; milk from Le(a-b-) mothers contained more LNF-I (H-1) and 2'-FL (H-2), whose fucose is exclusively alpha 1,2-linked. The pattern of oligosaccharides varied among milk samples; in each milk sample, the pattern was summarized as a ratio of 2-linked to non-2-linked fucosyloligosaccharides. Milks with the highest ratios were produced primarily by Le(a-b-) mothers; those with the lowest ratios were produced exclusively by Le(a-b+) mothers (p<0.001). Thus maternal genetic polymorphisms expressed as Lewis blood group types are expressed in milk as varied fucosyloligosaccharide ratios. The four infants who developed diarrhea associated with stable toxin of Escherichia coli were consuming milk with lower ratios (4.4 +/- 0.8 [SE]) than the remaining infants (8.5 +/- 0.8; p<0.001). Furthermore, the 27 infants who developed moderate to severe diarrhea of any cause were consuming milk with lower ratios (6.1 +/- 0.9) than the 26 who remained healthy (10.5 +/- 1.9; p = 0.042). Thus, milk with higher 2-linked to non-2-linked fucosyloligosaccharide ratios affords greater protection against infant diarrhea. We conclude that specific oligosaccharides constitute a major element of an innate immune system of human milk. 相似文献

Red cell Lewis antigens are carried by glycosphingolipids passively absorbed from plasma. Plasma was collected from a spectrum of individuals with normal and unusual Lewis/secretor phenotypes in order to investigate the glycolipid basis for the unusual phenotypes. Samples were obtained from: a Le(a+b–) ABH nonsecretor who secreted Lewis substances; a Le(a+b–) partial secretor; Le(a+b+) partial secretors; Le(a+b+) secretors; and a full range of normal Lewis/secretor phenotypes as controls. The Le(a+b+) samples represented Polynesian, Asian and Réunion Island ethnic backgrounds. Nonacid glycolipids were prepared, separated by thin-layer chromatography, and then immunostained with potent monoclonal antibodies of known specificity. Despite different serological profiles of the Le(a+b–) and Le(a+b+) Polynesian samples, their plasma glycolipid expressions were very similar, with both Lea and Leb co-expressed. The copresence of Lea and Leb in Le(a+b+) samples is in marked contrast to Caucasians with normal Lewis phenotypes, who have predominantly either Lea or Leb. These results suggest that there is a range of the secretor transferases in different individuals, possibly due to different penetrance or to several weak variants. We also show that Lewis epitopes on longer and/or more complex core chains appear to be predominant in the Polynesian Le(a+b+) samples. The formation of these extended glycolipids is compatible with the concept that in the presence of reduced secretor fucosyltransferase activity, increased elongation of the precursor chain occurs, which supports the postulate that fucosylation of the precursor prevents or at least markedly reduces chain elongation.Abbreviations CBA

The rate of polarised secretion of sialosyl Lewisa(19-9) molecular species (SiaLeams) by SW1116 colorectal carcinoma cells is stimulated at least ninefold by the presence of 3 μM retinoic acid (RA). In order to investigate the intracellular origins of this augmentation, carcinoma cell membranes, membrane subfractions, and media were studied to determine alterations in sialosyl Lewisa levels, oligosaccharide composition, and core structures accompanying the capacity to increase export of this epitope. We observed a nine- to twentyfold increase in sialosyl Lewisa epitope levels in a light membrane subfraction from RA-treated cells. Antigenic molecules of < 200,000 Mr on acrylamide gradient gels were concentrated in two doublets in the apparent Mr range 106,000–152,000 on Western blots. Carbohydrates analyses of oligosaccharides from SiaLeams of membrane subfraction and apical media indicated much higher fucose/mannose, fucose/sialic, fucose/sialosyl Lewisa, fucose/total CHO, and (3H) fucose incorporation in control samples than RA samples. Western blots of samples from membranes subfractions and media indicated that, in contrast to the effect of RA on the sialosyl Lewisa epitope, RA treatment did not augment cysteine-rich, PDTRP, blood group H-2, blood group A, and EGF receptor-like region epitopes in the media. In addition, Northern blots using the Lewis fucosyl transferase (FTIII) cDNA showed a dramatic diminution of mRNA encoding FTIII but apparently unaltered levels of sialyl transferase (ST4) mRNA. Since subterminal fucosylation of lactosyl termini blocks terminal sialylation, we conclude that one mechanism of sialosyl Lewisa induction in this culture system is the lower expression of the Lewis fucosyl transferase mRNA. Therefore less subterminal fucosylation of GlcNAc permits the prior sialylation of terminal Galβ1-3 moieties at oligosaccharide termini destined for export from the Golgi. 相似文献

BackgroundThe patients who require transfusion are prevalent in the Jazan Province, Saudi Arabia. Therefore, it is essential to know the frequency of blood group antigens in such a population. The Kidd blood group system (JK) has two antithetical antigens, Jka and Jkb. Antibodies to these antigens may result in delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions. The present study investigated the frequencies of Jka and Jkb and the phenotypes among Saudi blood donors living in the Jazan Province.MethodsOne hundred and forty-three samples from anonymous Saudi volunteer blood donors in the Jazan Province were serotype to detect Jka and Jkb using gel card technology and determine the phenotypes of the JK blood group system.ResultsThe prevalence of Jka and Jkb antigens were 90.64% (n = 126) and 69.40% (n = 93), respectively. The JK phenotypes were 34.96% Jk(a + b ? ) (n = 51), 12.59% Jk(a ? b + ) (n = 18), 52.45% Jk(a + b + ) (n = 75), and 0% Jk(a ? b ? ). The frequencies of the JK phenotypes in the Jazan population were significantly different from those in the Asian population (P < 0.05).ConclusionsWe reported the frequencies of the Jka and Jkb antigens and the distribution of the JK phenotypes in a group of Saudi blood donors in the Jazan Province, Saudi Arabia. The phenotype Jk(a + b + ) was the most common among the study population. Furthermore, this study emphasizes the significance of identifying the frequency of JK antigens and phenotypes in the provinces of Saudi Arabia. 相似文献

Breast-milk has a well-known anti-microbial effect, which is in part due to the many different carbohydrate structures expressed. This renders it a position as a potential therapeutic for treatment of infection by different pathogens, thus avoiding the drawbacks of many antibiotics. The plethora of carbohydrate epitopes in breast-milk is known to differ between species, with human milk expressing the most complex one. We have investigated the expression of protein-bound carbohydrate epitopes in milk from man, cow, goat, sheep, pig, horse, dromedary and rabbit. Proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE and the presence of carbohydrate epitopes on milk proteins were analysed by Western blotting using different lectins and carbohydrate-specific antibodies. We show that ABH, Lewis (Le)x, sialyl-Lex, Lea, sialyl-Lea and Leb carbohydrate epitopes are expressed mainly on man, pig and horse milk proteins. The blood group precursor structure H type 1 is expressed in all species investigated, while only pig, dromedary and rabbit milk proteins carry H type 2 epitopes. These epitopes are receptors for Helicobacter pylori (Leb and sialyl-Lex), enteropathogenic (H type 1, Lea and Lex) and enterotoxic Escherichia coli (heat-stable toxin; H type 1 and 2), and Campylobacter jejuni (H type 2). Thus, milk from these animals or their genetically modified descendants could have a therapeutic effect by inhibiting pathogen colonization and infection.

A hemagglutinating monoclonal antibody has been obtained from a mouse/mouse hybridoma after immunisation with the leb-active oligosaccharide, lacto-N-difucohexaose I, coupled to edestin. The antibody agglutinated human red cells regardless of Lewis phenotype. Blood group O cells were strongly, agglutinated, and progressively weaker agglutination was observed with A2, B and A2B cells. Blood group A1 and A1B cells were not agglutinated.By examining the binding of the antibody to glycolipids and oligosaccharides it was shown that the Leb and Y (Ley)-haptens bind to a similar extent. Full binding activity was dependent on the presence of, both fucosyl residues.Abbreviations LND l

We have used reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) to separate the reduced oligosaccharides produced by alkaline borohydride degradation of ovarian cyst blood group substances. From a single cyst, six oligosaccharides, ranging from two to seven residues in length, have been isolated by preparative HPLC on C-18 stationary phases using water for elution. The purity of the products and their structures were determined by high field proton NMR spectroscopy in conjunction with exo-and endoglycosidase digestion. All the chains isolated terminated inN-acetylgalactosaminitol which was substituted at the 3-postion by galactose and in some cases at the 6-postion byN-acetylglucosamine. The largest identified oligosaccharide was a heptasaccharide alditol containing a single -linked fucose in a Lewis blood group structure (Lea). 相似文献

An α-fucosidase that releases fucosyl residues from oligosaccharide fragments of xyloglucan, a plant cell wall hemicellulosic polysaccharide, was purified to homogeneity from pea (Pisum sativum) epicotyls using a combination of cation exchange chromatography and isoelectric focusing. The α-fucosidase has a molecular mass of 20 kDa according to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The α-fucosidase has an isoelectric point of 5.5. The substrate specificity of the α-fucosidase was determined by high performance anion exchange chromatographic analysis of oligosaccharide substrates and products. The enzyme hydrolyzes the terminal α-1,2-fucosidic linkage of oligosaccharides and does not cleave p-nitrophenyl-α-L-fucoside. The enzyme does not release measurable amounts of fucosyl residues from large polysaccharides. The subcellular localization of α-fucosidase in pea stems and leaves has been studied by immunogold cytochemistry. The α-fucosidase accumulates in primary cell walls and is not detectable in the middle lamella or in the cytoplasm of 8-day-old stem tissue and 14-day-old leaf tissue. α-Fucosidase activity was readily detected in extracts of 8-day-old stem tissue. No significant α-fucosidase acitivity or immunogold labeling of the α-fucosidase was detected in 2- and 4-day-old stem tissue indicating that production of α-fucosidase is developmentally regulated. 相似文献

Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) mesophyll protoplasts synthesize six basic proteins (a, a′, a1, b, b′, and c) which are undetectable in the leaf and whose synthesis is reduced by auxin (Y Meyer, L Aspart, Y Chartier [1984] Plant Physiol 75: 1027-1033). Polypeptides a, a′, and a1 were shown to have similar mobilities on two-dimensional electrophoresis as one 1,3-β-glucanase and two chitinases from tobacco mosaic virus-infected leaves. In immunoblotting experiments, polypeptide a was recognized by specific antibodies raised against the 1,3-β-glucanase and a′ and a1 reacted with anti-chitinase antibodies. Similarly, b and b′ comigrated with osmotin and its neutral counterpart, two proteins characteristic of salt-adapted tobacco cells, and reacted with anti-osmotin antibodies. In addition it has been shown that 1,3-β-glucanase and chitinase activities increased at the same time as a, a′, and a1 accumulated in cultivated protoplasts. Finally, polypeptide c was also detected in tobacco mosaic virus-infected leaves but could not be identified as any of the pathogenesis-related proteins characterized so far in tobacco. Thus, cultivated tobacco protoplasts synthesize and accumulate typical stress proteins. 相似文献

A large-scale production system of GDP-fucose (GDP-Fuc) and fucosylated oligosaccharides was established by the combination
of recombinant Escherichia coli cells overexpressing GDP-Fuc biosynthetic genes and Corynebacterium ammoniagenes cells. E. coli cells overexpressed the genes for glucokinase, phosphomannomutase, mannose-1-phosphate guanylyltransferase, GDP-mannose (GDP-Man)
dehydratase, and GDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-mannose (GKDM) epimerase/reductase as well as phosphoglucomutase and phosphofructokinase.
C. ammoniagenes contributed to the formation of GTP from GMP. GDP-Fuc accumulated to 29 mM (18.4 g l−1) after a 22-h reaction starting with GMP and mannose through introducing the two-step reaction to overcome the inhibition
of GDP-Fuc on GDP-Man dehydratase activity. When E. coli cells overexpressing the α1,3-fucosyltransferase gene of Helicobacter pylori were put into the GDP-Fuc production system, Lewis X [Galβ1–4(Fucα1–3)GlcNAc] was produced at an amount of 40 mM (21 g l−1) for 30 h from GMP, mannose, and N-acetyl lactosamine. The production system through bacterial coupling can be applied to the industrial manufacture of fucosylated
oligosaccharides. Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology (2000) 25, 213–217.

After aluminum toxicity, manganese (Mn) toxicity is probably the second most important growth limiting factor in acid soils.
The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of using chlorophyll content and leaf elongation rate (LER) for
regrowth of Mn stressed seedlings as a rapid seedling based screening bioassay for Mn tolerance in segregating populations
of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). In one experiment, chlorophyll was determined for the cultivars Norquay (Mn-tolerant) and Columbus (Mn-sensitive) subjected
to twelve Mn levels (2 to 2000 μM) in nutrient solutions. As Mn concentration increased, chlorophyll ‘a’ and ‘b’ contents of the Mn-tolerant cultivar decreased
up to 9%, while in the Mn-sensitive cultivar it was reduced by as much as 43%. The chlorophyll ‘a/b’ ratio did not differ
among Mn concentrations for either cultivar. In a second experiment, chlorophyll content and LER for regrowth of Mn stressed
seedlings (1000 μM) was determined for Columbus and Katepwa (Mn-sensitive), Oslo (Mn-intermediate), and Norquay and Laura (Mn-tolerant). Manganese
tolerance as assayed by chlorophyll ‘a’ and ‘b’ and LER was significantly correlated with Mn tolerance as assayed by the relative
root weight methodology (RRW). Thus, chlorophyll content of Mn-stressed seedlings and LER of seedling regrowth appear to be
suitable techniques for screening unreplicated selections of segregating populations for tolerance to Mn. 相似文献

Chlorophyll-a (chl-a) and carotenoid pigments of the zooxanthellate octocoral Sinularia flexibilis were analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography following exposure to three light intensities for over 30 days.
From the coral fragments located at different light intensities, a total carotenoid of >41 μg g−1 dry weight, including peridinin, xanthophylls (likely diadinoxanthin + diatoxanthin), and chl-a as the most abundant pigments, with minor contents of astaxantin and β-carotene were detected. The whole content of chl-a weighed 5 μg g−1 dry weight in all coral colonies. Chl-a and carotenoids contributed 11.2% and 88.2%, respectively, to all pigments detected, and together accounted for 99.4% of
the total pigments present. The highest contents of carotenoids and chl-a was observed in the coral grafts placed in an irradiance of 100 μmol quanta m−2 s−1; they showed lower ratios of total carotenoids: chl-a compared to those exposed to 400 μmol quanta m−2 s−1 after >30 days of incubation. The ratios of peridinin and xanthophylls with respect to chl-a from the colonies at 400 μmol quanta m−2 s−1 were approximately double those observed at irradiances of 100 and 200 μmol quanta m−2 s−1. Partial quantification of pigments in this study showed that the carotenoids of S. flexibilis showed a decrease at irradiances above 100 μmol quanta m−2 s−1, with the exception of an increase in β-carotene at 200 μmol quanta m−2 s−1. 相似文献

High-performance liquid chromatography of sialic acid-containing oligosaccharides and acidic monosaccharides 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Many sialic acid-containing oligosaccharides and five acidic monosaccharides have been separated by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography using a Dionex AS6 ion-exchange column eluted with aqueous 50 mM NaOH plus 50-175 mM sodium acetate. Using a pulsed amperometric detector, as little as 50 pmol oligosaccharide can be detected. Many factors, such as the presence of fucosyl groups or sialyl groups, glycosidic linkage positions, and branching structure, can have a tremendous influence on overall acidity of the oligosaccharide, which can lead to excellent separations and make this method an important addition to existing alternatives for the separation of sialic acid-containing oligosaccharides. 相似文献

Human milk contains approximately 200 complex oligosaccharides believed to stimulate the growth and establishment of a protective microbiota in the infant gut. The lack of scalable analytical techniques has hindered the measurement of bacterial metabolism of these and other complex prebiotic oligosaccharides. An in vitro, multi‐strain, assay capable of measuring kinetics of bacterial growth and detailed oligosaccharide consumption analysis by FTICR‐MS was developed and tested simultaneously on 12 bifidobacterial strains. For quantitative consumption, deuterated and reduced human milk oligosaccharide (HMO) standards were used. A custom software suite developed in house called Glycolyzer was used to process the large amounts of oligosaccharide mass spectra automatically with 13C corrections based on de‐isotoping protocols. High growth on HMOs was characteristic of Bifidobacterium longum biovar infantis strains, which consumed nearly all available substrates, while other bifidobacterial strains tested, B. longum bv. longum, B. adolescentis, B. breve and B. bifidum, showed low or only moderate growth ability. Total oligosaccharide consumption ranged from a high of 87% for B. infantis JCM 7009 to only 12% for B. adolescentis ATCC 15703. A detailed analysis of consumption glycoprofiles indicated strain‐specific capabilities towards differential metabolism of milk oligosaccharides. This method overcomes previous limitations in the quantitative, multi‐strain analysis of bacterial metabolism of HMOs and represents a novel approach towards understanding bacterial consumption of complex prebiotic oligosaccharides. 相似文献

The patterns of cross-reaction of 30 monoclonal antibodies and three lectins were determined by ELISA with 21 ABH, Ii or Lewis related synthetic oligosaccharides coupled to bovine serum albumin. At least seven main groups of cross-reactive patterns were identified among the antibodies, plus several intermediate patterns between two of the main antibody groups. The three lectins had different cross-reaction patterns,Galactia tenuiflora was different from all the antibodies,Ulex europaeus lectin 1 andLotus tetragonolobus were similar, but not identical to groups III and V of antibodies respectively. The anti-H antibodies cross-reacting with A type 2 gave similar agglutination scores with all the normal ABO erythrocytes, while the anti-H antibodies not cross-reacting with A type 2 reacted with different scores: O>A2>A2B>B>A1>A1B>Oh, suggesting that these antibodies react better with the free H epitopes and do not recognize the H in A or B epitopes. Based on the ELISA and agglutination results and the lowest energy conformations of each oligosaccharide obtained by computer modelling, the most probable oligosaccharide surface areas recognized by each antibody main group are illustrated. 相似文献

We analyzed two transgenic mouse lines that secrete rhEPO in their milk to assess the dynamic control of N-linked oligosaccharides.
Since pharmaceutically available epoetin α and β are produced in CHO cells, we compared transgenic mammary gland-derived rhEPO
to its CHO cell-derived counterpart. The major glycosyltransferases that determine the N-oligosaccharides patterns of rhEPO
include N-acetylglycosaminyltransferase (GnT) and α1,3/4 fucosyltransferase (Fuc-TIV), GnT-III, -V and Fuc-TIV expression
in the mouse mammary gland is significantly higher than that in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-derived cells, where the protein
is not detectable. The data suggest that N-linked sugar chain patterns of recombinant glycoproteins, produced by the mammary
gland differ, since GnT-III alters the sugar pattern extensively. In our experiments, rhEPO produced by the transgenic mice
contains more tetra-acidic oligosaccharide structures than epoetin α derived from CHO cells, a rhEPO that is widely used therapeutically.
Accordingly, we examined milk-derived rhEPO activity, both in vitro and in vivo. The rhEPO protein purified from the milk of mammary glands upregulates the EPO receptor-mediated expression of the STAT5
gene in MCF-7 cells in a dose-dependent manner, similar to the effects of epoetin α. Furthermore, direct injection of rhEPO
into the mouse tail vein leads to an increase in the levels of blood components, such as red blood cells and platelets. In
light of these findings, we suggest that the mammary glands of transgenic animals provide a sufficient environment to generate
rhEPO with post-translational modifications for biopharmaceutical use.
