MANUFACTURING PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF PEPTIDES GROWN IN INSECT CELL LINES
摘要
<p>The present invention provides a manufacturing method for the production of peptides that are grown in insect cell lines. The peptides are grown in insect cell cultures that are infected with baculovirus particles in a culture supplemented with a lipid mixture. The peptides are then isolated from the insect cell culture using a method that employs a tangential flow filtration cascade. The isolated peptides are glycopeptides having an insect specific glycosylation pattern. The glycopeptides may then be conjugated to a modifying group via linkage through a glycosyl linking group interposed between and covalently attached to the peptide and the modifying group. The conjugates are formed from glycosylated peptides by the action of a glycosyltransferase.</p>
