The effect of different Cell Culture conditions on N-glycosylation site-occupancy has been elucidated for two different recombinant glycoproteins expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, recombinant human tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) and a recombinant enzyme (glycoprotein 2-GP2). Both molecules contain a N-glycosylation site that is variably occupied. Different environmental factors that affect the site-occupancy (the degree of occupied sites) of these molecules were identified. Supplementing the culture medium with additional manganese or iron, increased the fraction of hilly occupied t-PA (type I t-PA) by approximately 2.5-4%. Decreasing the cultivation temperature from 37 to 33 degrees C or 31 degrees C gradually increased site-occupancy of t-PA up to 4%. The addition of a specific productivity enhancer, butyrate, further increased site-occupancy by an additional 1% under each cultivation temperature tested. In addition, the thyroid hormones triiodothyronine and thyroxine increased site-occupancy of t-PA compared to control conditions by about 2%. In contrast, the addition of relevant nucleoside precursor molecules involved in N-glycan biosynthesis (e.g., uridine, guanosine, mannose) either had no effect or slightly reduced site-occupancy. For the recombinant enzyme (GP2), it was discovered that Culture pH and the timing of butyrate addition can be used to control N-glycan site-occupancy within a specific range. An increase in culture pH correlated with a decrease in site-occupancy. Similarly, delaying the timing for butyrate addition also decreased site-occupancy of this molecule. These results highlight the importance of understanding how cell culture conditions and media components can affect the product quality of recombinant glycoproteins expressed in mammalian cell cultures. Furthermore, the identification of relevant factors will enable one to control product quality attributes, specifically N-glycan site-occupancy, within a specific range when applied appropriately.
