Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides: genetically modified yeasts such as mutant yeasts having an ability to produce N-linked sugar chains of Man 5 GlcNAc 2 and a decreased ability to produce O-linked sugar chains, mutant yeasts having an ability to produce N-linked sugar chains of Man 5 GlcNAc 2 and further having an ability to produce N-linked sugar chains of GlcNAc 1 Man 5 GlcNAc 2 , and mutant yeasts having an increased ability to produce and secrete proteins and an ability to produce N-linked sugar chains of Man 5 GlcNAc 2 ; and a method for producing glycoproteins using them.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A mutant yeast having an ability to produce N-linked sugar chains of Man 5 GlcNAc 2 , wherein: (a) the yeast is functionally deficient in a protein-O-mannosyltransferase gene, an α-1,6-mannosyltransferase gene, an α-1,3 mannosyltransferase gene and a mannose-1-phosphorylation control gene; (b) the yeast has a decreased ability to produce O-linked sugar chains relative to a corresponding yeast that is not functionally deficient in a protein-O-mannosyltransf…
