Session 115 - Advances in Protein Expression and Post-Translational Modification
Increasing demand for recombinant proteins has focused research on techniques for improving protein expression and controlling post-translational processing. We invite papers on all aspects of protein expression including novel cell systems, expression vectors, and culture conditions. Submissions dealing with post-translational processing including glycosylation, editing and secretion are also invited. Papers may deal with any cell type including bacteria, yeast, mammalian, insect and plant cell cultures.
