The commercial demand for glycosylation engineering is broad, including production of biological therapeutics with defined glycosylation (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch57/">Chapter 57</a>). This chapter describes how knowledge of glycan structures and their metabolism (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch02/">Chapters 2</a>&#x02013;<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch27/">27</a>) has led to the current state of glycosylation engineering in different cell types. Perspectives for rapid advances in this area using precise gene editing technologies are also described.</p><div id="s56.1"><h2 id="_s56_1_">GOALS FOR GLYCOENGINEERING OF CELLS</h2><p>There is a long history of engineering glycosylation in mammalian cells, plants, fungi (yeast), and bacteria using genetic strategies, and many well-characterized glycosylation mutants are available (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch20/">Chapters 20</a>&#x02013;<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch27/">27</a> and <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch49/">49</a>). This chapter focuses on approaches and methods for designing glycosylation in cells, whereas other active areas of engineering glycans to produce structural bioproducts, foods, and fuels are not covered. Today, cellular glycoengineering is often used to produce recombinant therapeutic glycoproteins that require glycosylation for their efficacy and at the same time must have human-compatible glycosylation to avoid immune responses to nonhuman glycans. Glycosylation can alter the size, charge, and solubility of therapeutic glycoproteins to prevent rapid clearance from the circulation. In addition, glycoengineering has been used to improve or develop new therapeutic modalities (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch57/">Chapter 57</a>). Glycans can also serve as ligands for lectin receptors that target therapeutics to certain cells. Of particular importance is the role of N-glycosylation for effector functions of IgG antibodies; therapeutic IgG antibodies with N-glycosylation designed to improve their cytotoxic properties are in clinical use. In the past decade, new methods have emerged to precisely engineer glycosylation by gene editing, and with increased knowledge the field seems to be limited only by imagination.</p><p>Cell lines are widely used as factories to produce recombinant glycoproteins from introduced gene constructs. The most common factories for glycoproteins include yeast, plants, insect cells, nonhuman mammalian cells, and, more rarely, human cells. More recently, bacteria are also being engineered to accommodate production of glycoproteins. The glycosylation capabilities of different species vary substantially in terms of both the sites of glycan attachment and the glycans attached (Figure <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/figure/CSHLP5087CH56F1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56F1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56F1">56.1</a> and <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch09/">Chapters 9</a>&#x02013;<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch27/">27</a>). A first step in glycoengineering strategies is therefore to consider which cell type to use. This decision requires detailed knowledge of glycosylation pathways and genes. Historically, the mammalian Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line has played a dominant role, and today most biologics are produced in CHO cells (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch49/">Chapter 49</a>). The CHO line was selected for human therapeutic production because its glycosylation capacities are relatively simple and resemble those of humans. The CHO cell line produces a comparatively narrow repertoire of glycans that are not immunogenic in humans; glycoengineering can expand their native glycosylation capabilities and provide optimization of glycoforms. Alternate host species in which native glycosylation (or lack thereof) provides a simpler starting point for engineering can also be selected. For example, glycoproteins for enzyme replacement therapies have been produced in yeast and glycan vaccines in bacteria.</p><p>There have been major achievements in glycoengineering of cells from bacteria to yeast and &#x0201c;higher&#x0201d; eukaryotes (Table <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/table/CSHLP5087CH56TB1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56TB1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56TB1">56.1</a> and <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch49/">Chapter 49</a>). New precise gene editing technologies described below enable glycoengineering in a wide variety of species and open opportunities for selection of host cells based on optimal production efficiency and production of human-like glycans. Common principles in glycoengineering via gene editing are described below, followed by more detailed descriptions of progress in cells from various species.</p></div><div id="s56.2"><h2 id="_s56_2_">KNOWLEDGE OF GLYCOSYLATION PATHWAYS ENABLES GLYCOENGINEERING</h2><p>Although the glycomes of different species have distinct features (Figure <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/figure/CSHLP5087CH56F1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56F1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56F1">56.1</a>), the basic biosynthetic machinery and pathways are remarkably conserved in eukaryotes, and there are even similarities with glycosylation pathways in some bacteria and Archaea. Most enzymes involved in glycosylation in eukaryotes are highly conserved in fungi, plants, and animals, facilitating the design and execution of glycoengineering strategies in these organisms. Nevertheless, current knowledge is far from complete, and glycoengineering across species is still in its infancy. Whereas expression of a particular protein in a heterologous host may require only introduction of the single gene for that protein, precise glycosylation engineering of that protein may require introduction of a suite of genes, including those required for the biosynthesis and transport of appropriate activated nucleotide sugar donors, as well as multiple glycosyltransferases.</p><p>Successful glycoengineering requires knowledge of the glycosyltransferase genes and substrates required to direct synthesis of a particular glycan. Certain genes may need to be removed and others inserted to create biosynthetic pathways that produce the glycans of interest. Four decades of glycogene discoveries have resulted in the identification of many genes encoding glycosyltransferases, hydrolases, and other enzymes involved in synthesizing and metabolizing the glycans of eukaryotic cells and the biosynthetic pathways involved (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch08/">Chapters 8</a>&#x02013;<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch19/">19</a>). Different glycosylation pathways may function independently using different sets of enzymes or, in some cases, may share enzymes. Enzymes working in consecutive order to assemble mature glycans generally work independently, although there may also be cooperative effects. In principle, there is sufficient knowledge to predict the role of individual enzymes and assign them to specific pathways, allowing prediction of the enzyme repertoire required to generate a particular glycan on a particular glycoconjugate. An excellent resource in this regard is the classification of homologous gene families from diverse species in the &#x0201c;Carbohydrate-Active enZYmes&#x0201d; (CAZy) database (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch08/">Chapter 8</a>).</p><p>Among the prerequisites for glycoengineering a desired glycan in a chosen host is that the appropriate repertoire of activated sugar donors and their transporters are present (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch05/">Chapter 5</a>). This is especially important when engineering glycosylation in prokaryotes or nonmammalian eukaryotes in which the nucleotide sugar donors required to synthesize therapeutics with human glycosylation may not be present. For example, yeast does not produce UDP-GalNAc, and many organisms do not produce CMP-sialic acids.</p></div><div id="s56.3"><h2 id="_s56_3_">THE IN/OUT STRATEGIES OF GENETIC GLYCOENGINEERING IN EUKARYOTES</h2><p>Different genetic strategies may be used to alter the glycosylation capabilities of cells. Knockdown and nontargeted overexpression in eukaryotes have been used for many years, and precisely targeted gene editing strategies are now well-established.</p><div id="s56.3.1"><h3>Knockdown</h3><p>Reducing undesirable glycosyltransferase activities in cells has been achieved by gene silencing strategies. Whereas this has been particularly successful in plants and Drosophila, silencing has not gained wide use in glycoengineering mammalian cell lines because the low efficiency of knockdown often leaves undesirable levels of target glycosyltransferase activity remaining.</p></div><div id="s56.3.2"><h3>Overexpression</h3><p>Adding desirable glycosyltransferase activities to eukaryotic cells is achieved by transfection of glycogenes from any organism, random integration of plasmid DNA, and antibiotic selection of stable clones. Although this strategy is successful, it provides no control over site(s) of genomic integration (unless specific strategies are used), gene copy number, or gene expression levels. Overexpression of enzymes can lead to disruption of normal glycosylation patterns and unpredictable glycosylation. Instability of the introduced glycosylation genes and the use of antibiotics for selection have also been problematic for the long-term use of such engineered cells for production of therapeutic glycoproteins.</p></div><div id="s56.3.3"><h3>Knockout and Knock-In by Precision Genome Editing</h3><p>Knockout of glycosylation genes to eliminate unwanted glycans has long been a simple task in bacteria and yeast. Although powerful, knockout or knock-in strategies have been time-consuming and difficult to use in &#x0201c;higher&#x0201d; eukaryotic cells (see <i>Fut8</i> knockout below). However, these difficulties were substantially reduced with the introduction of nuclease-based precise gene editing tools including zinc-finger nucleases, transcription activator&#x02013;like effector nucleases (TALENs), and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat/targeted Cas9 endonucleases (CRISPR/Cas9), which enable highly specific gene manipulation in all cell types (Figure <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/figure/CSHLP5087CH56F2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56F2" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56F2">56.2</a>; <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch27/">Chapters 27</a> and <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch49/">49</a>). These tools can also be used to activate endogenous silent genes, edit gene sequences to mimic hypomorphic disease mutations, and insert foreign genes at specific genomic sites.</p><p>Precise gene editing can insert foreign genes at &#x0201c;safe harbor&#x0201d; sites in the genome to ensure stable expression and avoid interfering with endogenous gene expression. One such safe harbor in human cells is the AAVS1 site on chromosome 19 known to enable stable expression of transgenes without adverse effects. However, precise genetic engineering allows insertion of one or more foreign genes at any position in the genome. For example, precise knock-in of glycogenes can be combined with knockout by inserting an exogenous gene in place of an unwanted endogenous gene. Precise knock-in strategies also enable control of the number of copies inserted and can be used to insert entire landing platforms of multiple genes inserted consecutively.</p><p>Successful expression of an enzyme or transporter for glycoengineering requires that the expressed protein finds its way to the correct subcellular compartment. Heterologous expression of type 2 Golgi transmembrane glycosyltransferases, for example, often requires testing different Golgi retention sequences. Although design guidance is available, this is often a trial and error exercise, and in some cases a combinatorial screening is required to identify the optimal construct.</p></div></div><div id="s56.4"><h2 id="_s56_4_">GLYCOENGINEERING IN BACTERIA</h2><p>The most common bacterium used for heterologous protein production, <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy/?term=Escherichia+coli" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri"><i>Escherichia coli</i></a>, does not have the native capacity to glycosylate proteins. However, research in the last two decades identified N- and O-glycoproteins, and the glycosylation pathways responsible for their biosynthesis, in the pathogenic proteobacterium <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy/?term=Campylobacter+jejuni" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri"><i>Campylobacter jejuni</i></a> and other bacterial species. Moreover, several bacterial toxins have glycosyltransferase domains that exert their pathogenicity by glycosylating highly specific amino acids in key host proteins to interfere with essential cellular functions. <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch21/">Chapter 21</a> discusses glycosylation in Eubacteria. Another unique feature of bacteria is that sugar nucleotide donors are synthesized and remain in the cytosol, so that engineered glycan assembly on a lipid carrier (for systems based on en bloc glycosylation) or on proteins directly (for systems based on processive glycosylation) must take place in the cytosol unless nucleotide sugar transporters are introduced to the periplasmic membrane.</p><div id="s56.4.1"><h3>Engineering Free and Lipid-Linked Oligosaccharides</h3><p>Bacteria efficiently produce free and lipid-linked oligo- and polysaccharides including capsular polysaccharides (CPSs) and lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch21/">Chapter 21</a>), and these pathways have been engineered to produce a variety of complex human-like glycans. In particular, the LPS pathway has been used to engineer and display glycans in <i>E. coli</i>. LPS consists of a base lipid (lipid A) linked to a core oligosaccharide followed by highly diverse O-polysaccharides (O-antigens). Genetically interrupting biosynthesis of the lipid A core oligosaccharide prevents coupling of the O-antigen, thereby allowing engineering of novel glycans on lipid A for display on the cell surface. This strategy has been used to engineer the synthesis of a variety of human glycan epitopes, including blood group antigens (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch14/">Chapter 14</a>) and cancer-associated glycolipid glycans (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch11/">Chapter 11</a>).</p><p>In a complex example of engineering large free complex glycans in bacteria, 4-O-sulfated chondroitin sulfate, a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch17/">Chapter 17</a>), was produced in <i>E. coli</i> by deleting a fructosyltransferase (<i>kfoE</i>), introducing bacterial UDP-Glc/-GlcNAc 4-epimerase and chondroitin synthase genes, and introducing a mutated human chondroitin-4-O-sulfotransferase gene, opening the way for glycosaminoglycan production in bacteria.</p></div><div id="s56.4.2"><h3>Engineering N-Glycosylation</h3><p>Two types of native protein N-glycosylation occur in some bacteria, although not in <i>E. coli</i>. One type is similar to eukaryotic cell N-glycosylation with production of a lipid-linked oligosaccharide in the cytosol, which is then transferred en bloc to Asn by an oligosaccharyltransferase (OST) in the periplasm. The OST of <i>C. jejuni</i>, PglB, is a single polypeptide related to the catalytic STT3 subunits of the multiprotein OST complex of eukaryotes (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch09/">Chapter 9</a>). PglB shows a more restricted acceptor sequence motif than the eukaryotic N-X-S/T, with requirement of an acidic residue (D/EXNXS/T, in which X cannot be P) (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch21/">Chapter 21</a>). This places some restrictions on the usefulness of engineering human-like N-glycans, because most N-glycan sites in mammalian proteins do not conform to this extended consensus sequence. PglBs from other species, or mutants evolved by adaptive evolution, have been identified to address this problem, but further improvements are needed. Importantly, PglB has rather relaxed donor substrate specificity. Although bacterial lipid-linked oligosaccharides are distinct from those in eukaryotes, PglB can use mammalian-type lipid-linked oligosaccharides as donors.</p><p>An important feature for using prokaryotes for glycoengineering is the arrangement of entire glycosylation machineries in multigene operons. This enables the transfer of large genetic elements of 10&#x02013;20 kb between species. A major achievement was the successful transfer of the entire N-glycosylation operon from <i>C. jejuni</i> to <i>E. coli</i>, producing N-linked glycoproteins in <i>E. coli</i>. Production of glycoproteins carrying a Man<sub>3</sub>GlcNAc<sub>2</sub> core N-glycan has been achieved by introduction of eukaryotic enzymes (Table <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/table/CSHLP5087CH56TB1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56TB1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56TB1">56.1</a>). Bacterial N-linked glycosylation is being exploited as an alternative method for glycoconjugate vaccine production, and vaccines against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria have been developed.</p><p>Another type of N-glycosylation found in &#x003b3;-proteobacteria involves a cytosolic N-glycosyltransferase (NGT) that targets the N-X-S/T acceptor sequence motif recognized by mammalian OST (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch09/">Chapter 9</a>). NGT transfers a single monosaccharide (e.g., Glc) from an activated sugar nucleotide donor, with loose donor substrate specificity that includes both UDP and GDP sugar nucleotides. This provides an entirely new approach to engineering alternate types of N-glycosylation. Engineering this pathway in bacteria resulted in the assembly of glycan motifs including &#x003b1;1-3-galactose epitopes as well as fucosylated and sialylated lactose or poly-<i>N</i>-acetyllactosamine (LacNAc) units primed by Glc residues on glycoproteins (Table <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/table/CSHLP5087CH56TB1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56TB1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56TB1">56.1</a>).</p><p>Although most bacteria do not have the capacity for sialylation, there are exceptions (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch15/">Chapters 15</a> and <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch21/">21</a>). Bacterial genes for CMP-sialic acid synthesis and for sialyltransferases with specificities similar to those in mammals have been introduced with plasmids or integrated into the genome of host bacteria cells, enabling the production of sialylated N- and O-glycoproteins.</p></div><div id="s56.4.3"><h3>Engineering O-Glycosylation</h3><p>Some bacteria have processive O-glycosylation pathways controlled by glycosyltransferases using activated sugar donors. These pathways inspired the engineering of human O-glycosylation reactions in <i>E. coli</i>. By introducing mammalian polypeptide GalNAc-transferase genes and a UDP-Glc/GlcNAc 4-epimerase, O-GalNAc protein glycosylation (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch10/">Chapter 10</a>) has been achieved. Further introduction of a &#x003b2;1-3-galactosyltransferase enabled biosynthesis of core 1 O-glycans (T antigen) on cytoplasmic acceptor proteins. Introduction of GalNAc residues has been used for postexpression enzymatic addition of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-derivatized sialic acids to enhance the therapeutic properties of protein drugs.</p><p>Other bacteria possess a protein O-glycosylation mechanism that is unlike the stepwise biosynthesis of O-glycans in eukaryotes (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch10/">Chapter 10</a>), in that preassembled undecaprenol-PP-linked oligosaccharides are transferred en bloc to proteins by several OSTs with relaxed donor substrate specificities and poorly understood acceptor substrate specificities. Engineering of this endogenous glycosylation machinery has been used for en bloc transfer of human O-GalNAc glycans (Tn, T, sialyl-Tn, and sialyl-T antigens) onto acceptor proteins (Table <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/table/CSHLP5087CH56TB1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56TB1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56TB1">56.1</a>).</p></div></div><div id="s56.5"><h2 id="_s56_5_">GLYCOENGINEERING IN YEAST</h2><p>Yeast natively produce N-glycans and O-mannosyl glycans on diverse glycoproteins. The general features of the biosynthetic pathways for initial glycan transfer are common in eukaryotes from yeast to human, and the enzymes involved are highly homologous. However, subsequent glycan processing in yeast generally results in polymannosylated glycans instead of the complex N- and O-glycans found in &#x0201c;higher&#x0201d; eukaryotes (Figure <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/figure/CSHLP5087CH56F1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56F1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56F1">56.1</a>). Yeast have similar systems for protein folding, quality control, and posttranslational modifications to other eukaryotic cells, in contrast to bacteria. Because genetic engineering in yeast has long been rapid and easy, experience with glycoengineering is more advanced in this organism compared with most others. Several commercial ventures have been based on engineering &#x0201c;humanized&#x0201d; N-glycosylation in yeast; the Pichia GlycoSwitch platform uses engineered yeast to add simple human N-glycans to expressed proteins.</p><div id="s56.5.1"><h3>Engineering N-Glycosylation</h3><p>N-glycans on yeast glycoproteins differ from those in vertebrates (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch09/">Chapter 9</a>), comprising large polymannosyl glycans on a poly(Man&#x003b1;1-6)<sub><i>n</i></sub> backbone, which are highly immunogenic in mammals (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch23/">Chapter 23</a>). A key &#x003b1;1-6-mannosyltransferase, Och1p largely initiates polymannosylation. Knockout of the <i>och1</i> gene, however, does not completely abrogate polymannosylation, and additional knockouts of mannosyl- and phosphomannosyltransferases, depending on yeast strain, are needed to achieve a homogenous Man<sub>8</sub>GlcNAc<sub>2</sub> N-glycan suitable for further engineering. Reducing Man<sub>8</sub>GlcNAc<sub>2</sub> to Man<sub>5</sub>GlcNAc<sub>2</sub> is achieved by expressing an &#x003b1;1-2-mannosidase in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), creating a convenient platform for generating complex N-glycans. Introduction of GlcNAcT-I (<i>MGAT1</i>) in the Golgi initiates complex N-glycan synthesis, and further addition of &#x003b1;3/6-mannosidase II (<i>MAN2A1</i>) and GlcNAcT-II (<i>MGAT2</i>) results in the biantennary GlcNAc<sub>2</sub>Man<sub>3</sub>GlcNAc<sub>2</sub> N-glycan suitable for appending galactose and sialic acid by further engineering. Some yeast species, including <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy/?term=Pichia+pastoris" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri"><i>Pichia pastoris</i></a>, do not contain UDP-Gal, and all yeast lack the native ability to synthesize CMP-Neu5Ac, so considerable engineering with introduction of multiple genes is required to obtain mature complex N-glycans. Although the engineering appears simple in silico, considerable efforts have been devoted to identifying optimal chimeric gene constructs with respect to both catalytic efficiency and ER/Golgi targeting.</p></div><div id="s56.5.2"><h3>Engineering O-Glycosylation</h3><p>Yeast perform extensive co- and posttranslational ER protein O-mannosylation (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch23/">Chapter 23</a>) using several polypeptide mannosyltransferases (PMTs). <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy/?term=Saccharomyces+cerevisiae" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri"><i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i></a> has six PMTs, and only a subset can be knocked out without reducing viability. Protein O-Man residues undergo polymannosylation in the Golgi. Muticellular eukaryotes also perform O-mannosylation and express two PMT orthologs, <i>POMT1</i> and <i>POMT2</i> (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch13/">Chapter 13</a>), but these have narrower acceptor substrate specificities. However, multicellular eukaryotes perform several other types of O-glycosylation (Figure <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/figure/CSHLP5087CH56F1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56F1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56F1">56.1</a>) (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch10/">Chapters 10</a>, <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch13/">13</a>, and <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch14/">14</a>), and their O-GalNAc glycans tend to be located in similar regions and protein sites as O-Man glycans in yeast. This means that expression of human O-glycoproteins in yeast may result in O-mannosylation at sites that carry O-GalNAc in mammals. Examples of this include the hinge region of IgA and mucin sequences. Because it is still difficult to predict types of O-glycosylation, human proteins expressed in yeast must be tested to determine if they are O-mannosylated.</p><p>Human O-GalNAc glycans have been successfully engineered into yeast by introducing human polypeptide GalNAc-transferases (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch10/">Chapter 10</a>) along with UDP-Glc/GlcNAc C4-epimerase and a UDP-Gal/GalNAc Golgi transporter. The entire biosynthetic machinery for CMP-Neu5Ac synthesis and transport has also been introduced together with a human sialyltransferase, and sialylated O-glycans have been produced in yeast. The problem with competing endogenous O-mannosylation can be partly eliminated by including a mannosyltransferase inhibitor (rhodanine-3-acetic acid). A deeper understanding of the yeast O-Man and human O-GalNAc glycosylation pathways is needed to provide new strategies to circumvent competition between the two systems and enhance O-glycan engineering in yeast.</p></div></div><div id="s56.6"><h2 id="_s56_6_">GLYCOENGINEERING IN PLANT CELLS</h2><p>Plants offer a simpler starting point than yeast for N-glycan humanization because the predominant native N-glycans of plants are paucimannose (Man<sub>3</sub>GlcNAc<sub>2</sub>) and biantennary terminating in GlcNAc (GlcNAc<sub>2</sub>Man<sub>3</sub>GlcNAc<sub>2</sub>). The abundance of paucimannose N-glycans appears to be due to a &#x003b2;-hexosaminidase that removes attached GlcNAc residues in competition with GlcNAc-transferases, a feature also found in insect cells. Two plant-specific N-glycan modifications include core &#x003b1;1-3-Fuc (instead of mammalian core &#x003b1;1-6-Fuc) and &#x003b2;1-2-Xyl linked to the &#x003b2;-Man in the N-glycan core. Both modifications are potentially immunogenic in humans. Plants also produce unique types of O-glycosylation not found in other species that pose potential problems for the generation of therapeutic glycoproteins.</p><div id="s56.6.1"><h3>Engineering N-Glycosylation</h3><p>Great advances in engineering plants for human-like N-glycosylation have been achieved. Knockdown or knockout of the &#x003b2;-hexosaminidase that inhibits complex N-glycan formation, as well as the &#x003b1;1-3 fucosyltransferase and &#x003b2;1-2 xylosyltransferase, have been achieved in different plants, including <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy/?term=Arabidopsis+thaliana" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri"><i>Arabidopsis thaliana</i></a> and <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy/?term=Nicotiana+benthamiana" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri"><i>Nicotiana benthamiana</i></a>. Nearly homogeneous biantennary GlcNAc<sub>2</sub>Man<sub>3</sub>GlcNAc<sub>2</sub> N-glycans were produced. These were further engineered by the introduction of Gal (using <i>B4GALT1</i>) and sialic acid (using <i>ST6GAL1</i> along with the enzymes needed to synthesize and transport CMP-Neu5Ac) in an engineering design using up to six gene constructs. Such humanized plants produced &#x003b1;2-6-Neu5Ac capped biantennary N-glycans without core fucose on a variety of recombinant glycoproteins. These achievements depended on combinatorial screening strategies to identify appropriate chimeric constructs of exogenous enzymes to drive the engineered glycosylation toward homogeneity.</p><p>Glycoproteins produced in plants carrying native paucimannose N-glycosylation are in use as approved drugs. For enzyme replacement therapy, the terminal mannose N-glycans of glucocerebrosidase (taliglucerase alfa) produced in carrots is beneficial for targeting to endogenous human mannose receptors, despite &#x003b1;1-3-Fuc and &#x003b2;1-2-Xyl modifications, and is in clinical use. Moreover, glycoengineered <i>N. benthamiana</i> cells without &#x003b1;1-3-Fuc and &#x003b2;1-2-Xyl have been used to produce a triple-antibody cocktail used to treat Ebola virus infections.</p></div><div id="s56.6.2"><h3>Engineering O-Glycosylation</h3><p>Plants do not have the types of O-glycosylation found in other eukaryotes but produce extensins and arabinogalactan proteins with two unique O-glycans. A family of prolyl-4-hydroxylases (P4H) converts selected Pro residues to hydroxyproline that may be arabinosylated by a series of enzymes. In addition, Ser residues may be O-glycosylated by the addition of Gal residues. Although a number of the P4Hs and glycosyltransferases have been knocked out in different plants, it is unclear whether these modifications can be completely eliminated without affecting viability. Nonetheless, the human machinery for O-GalNAc glycosylation has been engineered into plants by introducing the necessary polypeptide GalNAc-transferases and elongation enzymes, whereas UDP-Glc/-GlcNAc 4-epimerase and a UDP-GalNAc transporter may not be required. Human core 1 O-glycan biosynthesis and sialylation machinery including ST3GalI sialyltransferase have also been successfully introduced into plants. If issues related to hydroxyproline can be resolved, plants offer a valuable system in which different types of mammalian O-glycosylation could be engineered and exploited. A clear highlight of glycoengineering in plants was the combined introduction of 14 genes for production of the major human therapeutic glycoprotein erythropoietin with human sialylated biantennary N-glycans and core 1 O-glycans in tobacco cells (Table <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/table/CSHLP5087CH56TB1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56TB1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56TB1">56.1</a>).</p></div></div><div id="s56.7"><h2 id="_s56_7_">GLYCOENGINEERING IN INSECT CELLS</h2><p>Engineering in insect cells involves multiple strategies. Two different platforms are generally used for recombinant expression of proteins&#x02014;transient expression in the baculovirus-insect cell system and constitutive expression in Sf9 <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy/?term=Spodoptera+frugiperda" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri"><i>Spodoptera frugiperda</i></a> or S2 <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy/?term=Drosophila+melanogaster" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri"><i>Drosophila melanogaster</i></a> cells. The baculovirus-insect cell platform can be glycoengineered by including glycosylation genes in either the recombinant baculovirus vector genome or the insect cell line host genome. Engineering host insect cell lines has been the more common strategy, but remarkable success has been achieved by incorporating up to nine glycogenes in a baculovirus vector (Table <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/table/CSHLP5087CH56TB1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56TB1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56TB1">56.1</a>). CRISPR/Cas gene targeting of Sf9 insect cells has been established, and their use for glycoengineered baculovirus protein expression is feasible.</p><div id="s56.7.1"><h3>Engineering N-Glycosylation</h3><p>Insect cells produce mostly high-mannose and paucimannose N-glycans despite having the genetic capacity to produce complex sialylated N-glycans (Figure <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/figure/CSHLP5087CH56F1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56F1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56F1">56.1</a>). This is due in part to the action of a processing &#x003b2;-hexosaminidase, FDL, which removes attached GlcNAc residues from the &#x003b1;1-3-Man branch, and in part to low levels of GlcNAcT-II (MGAT2) activity. Like plants, some insect cells may add a potentially immunogenic core &#x003b1;1-3-Fuc and do not typically add terminal sialic acids. However, sialylation has been engineered by introducing genes encoding a CMP-sialic acid synthase and an <i>N</i>-acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate 2&#x02032;-epimerase into insect cells. For efficient sialylation, a dedicated CMP-sialic acid transporter appears to be needed as well. Using different strategies, production of glycoproteins carrying biantennary N-glycans with galactosylation and sialic acid capping has been achieved. Precision gene editing was used to knock out <i>fdl</i> in Sf9 and S2 cells to greatly improve complex N-glycan formation.</p></div><div id="s56.7.2"><h3>Engineering O-Glycosylation</h3><p>Insect cells perform the same range of O-glycosylation reactions as mammalian cells (Figure <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/figure/CSHLP5087CH56F1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56F1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56F1">56.1</a>), although the extent to which O-GalNAc glycans are attached at the same sites as in mammals is unexplored. Moreover, processing of O-glycans is limited to mainly truncated core 1 structures (Tn and T). Although insect cells offer a straightforward host for production of glycoproteins with human O-glycans, little has been investigated in this regard.</p></div></div><div id="s56.8"><h2 id="_s56_8_">GLYCOENGINEERING IN MAMMALIAN CELLS</h2><p>The cores of all types of glycoprotein glycans (Figure <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/figure/CSHLP5087CH56F1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56F1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56F1">56.1</a>) are highly conserved among mammals, although there are terminal glycan variations (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch14/">Chapter 14</a>). At least 16 different glycosylation pathways have been delineated in mammalian cells; maps of the predicted genetic regulation of biosynthetic steps by more than 170 distinct glycosyltransferases have been generated. The most popular mammalian cell line used for glycoengineering is the CHO cell line established more than 60 years ago. The success of the CHO cell line is partly due to the ease with which glycosylation mutants could be isolated (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch49/">Chapter 49</a>), and it was the first cell used to manufacture a recombinant therapeutic with relatively simple human-type terminal glycans without expression of antigenic nonhuman glycans or unusual modifications of the glycans. As discussed in <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch49/">Chapter 49</a>, the CHO cell line has an important place in glycoengineering history, exemplified by the Lec mutant lines generated by lectin selection. These cell lines with distinct mutations in glycosylation genes have provided tools for the scientific community for more than three decades and illustrate the importance of access to recombinant proteins with particular glycoforms for discovery of biological functions of glycans.</p><p>CHO cells can be considered as Glycobiology's gift to Biopharma. Major successes have been achieved in engineering CHO and other mammalian cell lines for production of human therapeutics (Table <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/table/CSHLP5087CH56TB1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56TB1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56TB1">56.1</a> and <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch49/">Chapters 49</a> and <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch57/">57</a>). The field is, however, undergoing a revolution with the new methods for facile, targeted, precise gene editing that allow the design of almost any conceivable glycosylation capacity in any mammalian cell by combining knockout and knock-in events.</p><div id="s56.8.1"><h3>Engineering N-Glycosylation</h3><p>The first major feat in gene editing of mammalian cells was elimination of the core &#x003b1;1-6-Fuc for production of recombinant IgG antibodies with enhanced binding to the Fc&#x003b3;-IIIa receptor (Table <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/table/CSHLP5087CH56TB1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56TB1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56TB1">56.1</a>). Overexpression of bisecting GlcNAcT-III (<i>MGAT3</i>) resulted in stable CHO cells with highly limited capacity for core fucosylation (commercialized by Roche). A second strategy involved a tour-de-force approach using homologous recombination (HR) to knock out the two <i>Fut8</i> alleles in CHO cells. More than 10,000 CHO clones were screened to identify the final knockout cell. Although this was an impressive achievement, such laborious random selection limits options for selecting cell clones that retain the attributes needed for optimal bioprocessing. Using precise gene editing, the same engineering was rapidly replicated, providing ample clones for selection of those with optimal properties. Glycoengineered CHO lines optimized for antibody production are now commercially available (Potelligent CHOK1SV, Lonza/Kyowa Kirin BioWa). Another elegant strategy introduced GDP-6-deoxy-D-lyxo-4-hexulose reductase to deflect the endogenous production of GDP-Fuc and enable fine-tuning of fucosylation by exogenous addition of fucose.</p><p>Engineering N-glycan sialylation has been another focus in the field. CHO cells produce only &#x003b1;2-3-linked sialic acids on N-glycans, whereas human HEK293-T cells (for example) produce a mixture of &#x003b1;2-3- and &#x003b1;2-6-linked sialic acids. Most soluble glycoproteins in human blood (including IgG) have &#x003b1;2-6-linked sialic acids on N-glycans, and reports have suggested that the sialic acid linkage may influence immunomodulatory functions as well as circulatory half-life. It has therefore been of interest to engineer more homogeneous &#x003b1;2-6-sialylation in cells. These efforts have mainly been limited to the overexpression of &#x003b1;2-6-sialyltransferases to override endogenous &#x003b1;2-3-sialylation with variable results, illustrating the complexity of engineering glycosylation in cells with competing pathways.</p><p>An innovative glycoengineering strategy (GlycoDelete) reduced the inherent heterogeneity of mammalian N-glycan structures. Human HEK293-T cells lacking <i>MGAT1</i> were stably transfected to express a fungal endo-N-acetylglucosaminidase (EndoT) that efficiently truncated N-glycans to a single GlcNAc, which was an acceptor for galactosylation and sialylation. Recombinant antibodies with truncated N-glycans had lower affinity for Fc&#x003b3; receptors, suggesting that this glycoengineering strategy may be suitable for use with neutralizing antibodies.</p><p>Deconstruction of the N-glycosylation pathway in CHO cells was performed by precise gene editing to knock out 19 glycosyltransferases, including all four &#x003b1;2-3-sialyltransferases that function on N-glycans (Figure <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/figure/CSHLP5087CH56F3/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56F3" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56F3">56.3</a>). Combining knockout of <i>St3gal4</i> and <i>St3gal6</i> with site-specific knock-in of <i>St6gal1</i> resulted in homogeneous &#x003b1;2-6-sialylation. Combinatorial knockout of all isoenzymes involved in N-glycan sialylation, galactosylation/LacNAc formation, branching, and core fucosylation has provided a design matrix for improving the homogeneity of N-glycans in CHO cells. A combination of five gene knockouts and the knock-in of <i>St6gal1</i> created the glycoprotein therapeutic erythropoietin having homogeneous biantennary N-glycans with terminal &#x003b1;2-6-Neu5Ac. Wider engineering of almost all genes involved in N-glycosylation in CHO cells has shown that there are few limitations for engineering of glycosylation. For example, the GlcNAc-1-phosphate transferase (<i>Gnptab</i>) that tags select oligomannose N-glycans on glycoproteins destined for lysosomal targeting was knocked out to produce lysosomal enzymes bearing complex-type sialylated glycans with extended blood circulation and improved biodistribution.</p><p>Therapeutic glycoprotein production still suffers from heterogeneity, including variations in which Asn residues are glycosylated (site occupancy, macroheterogeneity) and/or the diversity of mature glycan structures at any one site (microheterogeneity). This is currently addressed by ensuring reproducibility in batch-to-batch production through the use of highly standardized bioprocessing protocols, but this strategy is far from optimal. For example, incompletely sialylated therapeutic glycoproteins may be cleared by the hepatic asialoglycoprotein receptor (Ashwell&#x02013;Morell receptor), resulting in inconsistent circulatory half-lives of therapeutic glycoproteins (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch34/">Chapter 34</a>). Considerable efforts have been devoted to improving sialylation by overexpressing relevant sialyltransferases as well as inhibiting or knocking out endogenous sialidases in host cells. Protein-specific glycosylation patterns and heterogeneity are more difficult to control.</p><p>Nonhuman mammalian cell lines can produce two immunogenic nonhuman glycans: &#x003b1;1-3-Gal added to <i>N</i>-acetyllactosamine and Neu5Gc added to Gal or GalNAc (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch14/">Chapters 14</a> and <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch15/">15</a>). The &#x003b1;1-3-galactosyltransferase and CMP-<i>N</i>-acetylneuraminic acid hydrolase genes responsible are inactive in humans. Although &#x003b1;1-3-Gal and Neu5Gc are not produced in CHO cells, both genes have been knocked out as a precaution. Even so, Neu5Gc scavenged from animal glycoproteins used in cell culture can appear in expressed glycoproteins, so use of defined media lacking nonhuman glycoproteins is also necessary. In engineering mammalian cell lines, it is important to consider that the glycosylation capacity is driven by the expression of a subset of available enzyme genes, but unexpressed genes can become activated. Thus, cell-specific glycosylation features are generally controlled by transcriptional regulation rather than mutations or gene aberrations. Analysis of all known glycosylation genes in five distinct CHO production cell lines derived from the original CHO-K1 cell line found no apparent deleterious mutations or loss of genes, despite severe chromosomal alterations. This suggests that one must consider all the known glycogenes in a mammalian cell line for glycoengineering strategies.</p><p>Engineering the glycosylation capacity of CHO cells has also enabled more homogeneous bioconjugation of therapeutic drugs. For example, therapeutic drugs may be chemically conjugated with PEG chains to enhance circulatory half-life, but chemical conjugation is difficult to direct to specific sites in glycoproteins. A strategy for enzymatic modification of glycans postproduction has been developed that involves desialylation of recombinant glycoproteins, followed by in vitro transfer of a modified (PEGylated) Neu5Ac (as its CMP analog) to exposed Gal/GalNAc residues by a sialyltransferase. The process is in use with approved drugs, although heterogeneous modifications occur when multiantennary N-glycans are targeted. CHO cells have now been engineered to produce monoantennary, unsialylated N-glycans, which circumvent heterogeneity while retaining multiple exposed Gal acceptor sites for sialo-PEGylation.</p></div><div id="s56.8.2"><h3>Engineering O-Glycosylation</h3><p>Mammalian cells perform many different types of O-glycosylation (Figure <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK579915/figure/CSHLP5087CH56F1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figCSHLP5087CH56F1" rid-ob="figobCSHLP5087CH56F1">56.1</a>), and although these exert diverse and important biological functions, the interest in O-glycans for recombinant therapeutics has been limited. Nevertheless, recombinant coagulation factors in clinical use carry O-GalNAc, O-Fuc, and/or O-Glc glycans, and many other approved drugs including erythropoietin and Enbrel have O-GalNAc glycans. O-GalNAc glycans are also used for site-specific bioconjugation.</p><p>Engineering O-GalNAc glycans involves a new level of complexity because up to 20 isoenzymes (polypeptide GalNAc-transferases) direct the initiation of O-GalNAc glycans. It may therefore be important to consider the repertoire of these enzymes in a cell line. In theory, a protein that is naturally found with an O-glycan may not be O-glycosylated when expressed in a specific production cell line, and vice versa. An illuminating case is the important phosphaturic factor FGF23, a potential drug for patients with a congenital deficiency associated with hyperphosphatemia, which requires an O-GalNAc glycan for activity. The repertoire of polypeptide GalNAc-transferases in CHO and HEK293 cells has been extensively engineered by knockout and also knock-in of <i>GALNT</i> genes, revealing adaptation of mammalian cells to loss of O-glycosylation capacities.</p></div></div><div id="s56.9"><h2 id="_s56_9_">GLYCOENGINEERING IN GLYCOSCIENCE</h2><p>Glycoengineering of cell lines has vast potential to address a number of unmet needs in the glycosciences. As already mentioned, the CHO Lec, Ldl, Pgs, and Pig mutant cell lines (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch12/">Chapters 12</a> and <a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch49/">49</a>) served the research community for decades by providing defined alterations in glycosylation that enable studies of the functional roles of glycans. For example, CHO and HEK293-T mutant cells with MGAT1 deficiency have been widely used to produce recombinant proteins with homogeneous N-glycans suitable for crystallization studies.</p><p>Moreover, targeting glycosylation genes in whole organisms has provided immense insight into the importance of glycosylation and has revealed biological functions of specific glycosylation genes (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch41/">Chapter 41</a>). However, discovery of distinct biological functions of specific glycans, and the molecular mechanism(s) involved in multicellular organisms, is complicated by cell-type regulation of glycosylation and the cellular heterogeneity of tissues. Cell lines help to answer certain specific questions and complement whole organism studies.</p><p>Precise gene editing provides vast opportunities for glycoengineering cell lines and designing new strategies to probe glycan functions. Truncation of O-glycan elongation was used to produce homogeneous simple O-glycoproteomes (SimpleCell strategy), which enabled enrichment and sensitive mapping of the O-GalNAc and O-Man glycoproteomes of human cell lines. The development of isogenic cell lines differing in only one glycosyltransferase gene allows comparative studies to explore the function of a particular glycan or glycosylation pathway. For example, truncation of O-GalNAc glycans by targeting of the COSMC chaperone (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch10/">Chapter 10</a>) induced oncogenic features (proliferation, growth, and invasive behavior) of human nontransformed keratinocytes, an interesting finding in light of the frequent overexpression of truncated O-glycans (Tn, sialyl-Tn) in cancer. Large libraries of isogenic cells with comprehensive engineered glycosylation are used for cell-based glycan arrays and are useful for studying glycan binding in the natural context of the cell surface. The strategy has been expanded to organotypic tissue models used to address the more complex functions of distinct types of glycoconjugates (glycolipids, N-glycans, O-GalNAc, O-Fuc, O-Glc glycans) in human tissue formation.</p><p>A related approach is to use glycoengineering for discovery of host glycans required for microbial and viral infectivity. In one remarkable study using binding of Lassa virus to a haploid cell line, the large number of glycogenes required for synthesis of the extended O-Man glycan termed matriglycan (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch13/">Chapter 13</a>) that are bound by Lassa virus were identified and validated using a combination of selection for virus resistance and TALEN-mediated gene knockout.</p></div><div id="s56.10"><h2 id="_s56_10_">FUTURE PERSPECTIVES</h2><p>Glycoengineering of cells has entered a phase that may be described as &#x0201c;LEGO toying&#x0201d; because of the efficiency of precise gene editing. Entire glycosylation machineries can be deconstructed and rebuilt in various cell types. Cells show remarkable plasticity for engineering glycosylation pathways, with only a few glycosylation enzymes essential for cell growth in vitro. The essential functions for viability of mammalian cells are the initial steps of N-glycosylation (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch09/">Chapter 9</a>) and nuclear/cytosolic O-GlcNAc modifications (<a href="/books/n/glyco4/ch19/">Chapter 19</a>). These aside, essentially all glycosylation pathways in cells can be genetically deconstructed. Combining engineering of glycosylation pathways in creative ways by introducing completely foreign enzymes can be used to produce novel glycans for study.</p><p>Large-scale glycosylation screening and discovery strategies are possible. The CRISPR/Cas9 editing tool is particularly suited for multiplexed screening strategies, and whole-genome lentiviral-based knockout libraries have already been used for screening mutations that result in altered biological function. Although knockdown strategies have been successful for screening biological functions of glycogenes in multiple organisms (worms, flies, frogs, and zebrafish), these have generally not been effective in mammalian cells because of the low efficiency of knockdown. It is now possible to apply whole-glycogenome screening strategies in cell lines to probe and dissect the roles of glycosylation. These tools are dramatically improving options for dissection of structure&#x02013;function relationships in the field.</p><p>Glycoengineered cell lines and validated targeting constructs (knockout, knock-in, and mutated) including libraries for screening will become important community resources that will advance the glycoscience field and help disseminate and integrate glycosciences more broadly in biology. Large libraries of engineered isogenic cells with subtle differences of all types of glycosylation are available for dissection of glycan functions using different assays not limited to binding. Expanding these to organotypic tissue models is providing deeper insights. The ability to produce glycoproteins with a large variety of glycans opens up for unbiased testing of different glycoforms and determines the optimal design for therapeutic uses. Glycans can be custom designed, for example, to improve homogeneity, circulation time, targeting to select organs, or stimulating immunity.</p><p>A word of caution, however: Whereas glycoengineering by knockout is fairly straightforward, there is still considerable work needed to establish methods to build robust complex glycosylation capabilities requiring multiple gene insertions in cells. Here, activation of endogenous genes in mammalian cells may provide a solution. Gene editing technologies caused a revolution in the glycoscience field, and we have only begun to see the new possibilities for manipulating glycosylation in cells and organisms and for exploiting glycoengineering in therapeutic glycoproteins and biologics.</p><p>Finally, the well-established power and cost efficiency of using bacteria as reactors for production of proteins is now being harnessed to generate designer glycoproteins. There remains much to be explored in this rapidly developing area, but the potential is enormous.</p></div><div id="ack56"><h2 id="_ack56_">ACKNOWLEDGMENTS</h2><p>The authors acknowledge contributions to previous versions of this chapter by Catherina Steenhoft and appreciate helpful comments and suggestions from Jenny Mortimer.</p></div><div id="ref56"><h2 id="_ref56_">FURTHER READING</h2><ul class="first-line-outdent"><li><div class="bk_ref" id="CSHLP5087CH56C1">Wacker M, Linton D, Hitchen PG, Nita Lazar M, Haslam SM, North SJ, Panico M, Morris HR, Dell A, Wren BW, et al.

Examples of gene editing for gene disruption (knockout), mutation, tagging, and insertion of heterologous glycosyltransferases at a &#x0201c;safe harbor&#x0201d; locus are shown. Precise gene editing uses targeted nucleases to introduce double-stranded DNA breaks at specific locations. In mammalian cells, these breaks are repaired by nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) or homologous recombination (HR). NHEJ is an error-prone mechanism that often introduces small insertions or deletions (indels) resulting in frameshift mutations. Editing (to introduce targeted mutations) or insertion of glycosyltransferase genes mainly relies on HR following cotransfection of appropriate donor DNA constructs. For efficient knockout of type 2 transmembrane glycosyltransferases, it is often sufficient to target one of the first coding exons, which leads to nonsense-mediated decay of mRNA or causes alternative splicing that usually gives rise to nonfunctional proteins, but more generally it is advisable to target exons encoding functional domains.</p></div><p><a href="/books/NBK579915/bin/ch56f02.pptx">Download Teaching Slide</a><span class="small"> (PPTX, 11M)</span></p></div></div><div class="whole_rhythm bk_prnt_obj"><div id="CSHLP5087CH56F3" class="figure bk_fig"><div class="graphic"><a href="/core/lw/2.0/html/tileshop_pmc/tileshop_pmc_inline.html?title=FIGURE%2056.3..%20(A)%20A%20complex%20N-glycan%20with%20glycosyltransferases%20responsible%20for%20each%20reaction.&amp;p=BOOKS&amp;id=579915_ch56f03.jpg" target="tileshopwindow" class="inline_block pmc_inline_block ts_canvas img_link" title="Click on image to zoom"><div class="ts_bar small" title="Click on image to zoom"></div><img src="/books/NBK579915/bin/ch56f03.jpg" alt="FIGURE 56.3..
