Title
(EN) Improved sialylation of glycoproteins
Abstract
(EN) The present invention provides for cells and processes for producing glycoproteins having enhanced sialyation. The invention also provides for nucleic acid sequences encoding UDP-GlcNac 2-epimerases or modified UDP-GlcNac 2-epimerases. The modified UDP-GlcNac 2-epimerases have reduced binding to sialic acid.
