Compartment‐specific 13C metabolic flux analysis reveals boosted NADPH availability coinciding with increased cell‐specific productivity for IgG1 producing CHO cells after MTA treatment
Abstract Increasing cell‐specific productivities (CSPs) for the production of heterologous proteins in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells is an omnipresent need in the biopharmaceutical industry.

Sumario: | Abstract Increasing cell‐specific productivities (CSPs) for the production of heterologous proteins in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells is an omnipresent need in the biopharmaceutical industry. The novel additive 5′‐deoxy‐5′‐(methylthio)adenosine (MTA), a chemical degradation product of S‐(5′‐adenosyl)‐ʟ‐methionine (SAM) and intermediate of polyamine biosynthesis, boosts the CSP of IgG1‐producing CHO cells by 50%. Compartment‐specific 13C flux analysis revealed a fundamental reprogramming of the central metabolism after MTA addition accompanied by cell‐cycle arrest and increased cell volumes. Carbon fluxes into the pentose‐phosphate pathway increased 22 fold in MTA‐treated cells compared to that in non‐MTA‐treated reference cells. Most likely, cytosolic ATP inhibition of phosphofructokinase mediated the carbon detour. Mitochondrial shuttle activity of the α‐ketoglurarate/malate antiporter (OGC) reversed, reducing cytosolic malate transport. In summary, NADPH supply in MTA‐treated cells improved three fold compared to that in non‐MTA‐treated cells, which can be regarded as a major factor for explaining the boosted CSPs. |
