CHO Lec3.2.8.1 cells have 4 independent mutations in the N and O glycosylation pathways. When cultured with alpha-glucosidase I inhibitor N-butyl-deoxynojirimycin, glycoproteins produced in CHO Lec3.2.8.1 cells are completely susceptible to Endo H digestion. Endo H cleaves chitobiose, leaving a single N-linked N-acetylglucosamine per site which is ideal for maintenance of protein solubility and special carb-protein interactions, such as between the first N-acetyl glucosamine residue and tryp. - [Read Establishment of Stable Transfectant of CHO Lec Cells Protocol]

This protocol uses the plant amino acid mimosine as a G1/S synchronizing agent. Cells are first treated with excess thymidine to accumulate the majority of them at G1/S; however, some cells will have stopped growth within the S phase. Thymidine is then removed to allow all the cells to proceed completely through the S phase. Mimosine is then added to arrest the cells at the G1/S border. When mimosine is removed, cells will begin to enter S phase within about 1 hour. - [Read G1/S Phase Synchronization Using Mimosine Arrest Protocol]
