Applications of L-fucose pathway-based Cell Surface Metabolic Glycoengineering (MGE)

Cell surface MGE is a technological approach to altering the glycan structure of the cell surface. It involves the modulation of cellular metabolic pathways to alter or modify the composition of cell surface glycoconstituents. L-fucose pathway-based cell surface MGE is a specific technology that utilizes the metabolic processes of the L-fucose pathway to achieve modification and modulation of glycan structures of the cell surface. By modifying the glycan structures, the interaction of cells with pathogens and drugs can be modulated. This is essential for improving drug effectiveness and reducing side effects. For instance, through glycoengineering, the surface sugar group structure of tumor cells can be modified, allowing drugs to more accurately recognize and target these cells with enhanced precision. Modifications to the glycan structure on the cell surface of antigens can enhance its interaction with the immune system, thereby increasing the immunogenicity and immune response levels of the vaccine.

L-fucose Pathway-based Cell Surface MGE Service at CD BioGlyco

CD BioGlyco has a cutting-edge and comprehensive Glycoengineering Platform to provide clients with customized L-fucose pathway-based cell surface MGE service. The specific services we offer are as follows:

• Cell cultivation and preparation
  We select a suitable cell line and culture it to ensure that the cells are in a healthy state and collect a sufficient number of cells for subsequent experiments.
• Processes of cell surface MGE based on the L-fucose pathway
  Firstly, L-fucose pathway-related genes, enzymes, or other related vectors are introduced into cells by transfection or other means. Secondly, we use genetic engineering techniques such as overexpression, silencing, or knockdown to modulate key enzymes in the L-fucose pathway to achieve regulation of the metabolic pathway. Finally, the cell surface is modified by modulating specific enzyme activities or mediating the corresponding metabolic pathways to modify the sugar chain.
• Analysis and validation
  We analyze the structure of the glycan chains and examine the surface glycoproteins.
