Abstract

ABSTRACTGlycosylation of antibody plays an important role in Fc-mediated killing of tumor cells and virus-infected cells through effector functions such as antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody dependent cell-mediated phagocytosis (ADCP) and vaccinal effect. Previous studies showed that therapeutical humanized antibodies with α2-6 sialyl complex type (SCT) glycan attached to Fc-Asn297 exhibited optimal binding to the Fc receptors on effector cells associated with ADCC, ADCP and vaccinal effect. However, the production of antibodies with homogeneous Fc-SCT needs multiplein vitroenzymatic and purification steps. In this study, we report two different approaches to shorten the processes to produce SCT-enriched antibodies. First, we expressed a bacterial endoglycosidase in GNT1-KO EXPI293 cells to trim allN-glycans to mono-GlcNAc glycoforms forin vitrotransglycosylation to generate homogeneous SCT antibody. Second, we engineered the glycosylation pathway of HEK293 cells through knockout of the undesired glycosyltransferases and expression of the desired glycosyltransferases to produce SCT enriched antibodies with similar binding affinity to Fc receptors and ADCC activity to homogenous SCT antibody.
