Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells-LEC-1

Product Overview

Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells-LEC-1 is a mutant strain resistant to wheat germ agglutinin, selected from the proline-deficient CHO clone Pro-5. Lec1 lacks the glycosyltransferase known as GlcNAc-T1, which blocks N-linked carbohydrate synthesis at the Man5GlcNAc2Asn intermediate. These cells are highly useful for studying the effects of altered N-linked glycosylation on the function and compartmentalization of endogenous glycoproteins, or on glycoproteins produced by viral infection or cloned DNA transfection.
