The disclosure includes a method of preparing a cancer spheroid, a method of selecting a colorectal cancer patient being sensitive to an FGFR inhibitor, and a pharmaceutical composition for treating colorectal cancer comprising an FGFR inhibitor.

The present invention relates to a mammalian cell comprising a gene encoding a polypeptide of interest, wherein the polypeptide of interest is expressed comprising one or more posttranslational modification patterns. These modifications are useful for example in glycoprotein production where the antibodies with the modifications have an enhanced antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). The present invention also relates to methods for producing the glycoproteins and compositions comprising the glycoproteins, and their uses.

The present invention also relates to methods for producing the glycoproteins and compositions comprising the glycoproteins, and their uses.

The present disclosure provides, inter alia, compositions and methods for detecting changes in level of expression of cell-surface Type 2 terminal lactosamines on a population of cultured cells propagated under different conditions. The disclosure also provides compositions and methods for enforcing stably expressed glycans on human cells. In certain embodiments, the compositions and/or methods utilize one or more members of the α(1,3)-fucosyltransferase family. In certain embodiments, glycoengineered CD44 glycosylated product (e.g. HCELL) is stable for at least 48 hours at 4° C., with retained expression after cell cryopreservation.

These modifications are useful for example in glycoprotein production where the antibodies with the modifications have an enhanced antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). The present invention also relates to methods for producing the glycoproteins and compositions comprising the glycoproteins, and their uses.

Disclosed are methods, compositions of matter, and kits useful for augmentation of cells through modification of cellular membrane properties following ex vivo treatment.

Provided herein are methods of reducing or eliminating undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells, where the methods comprise contacting an effective amount of a compound to a heterogeneous cell population or sample comprising or suspected of comprising differentiated cell types and undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells, whereby the contacting selectively reduces or eliminates undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells from the cell population or sample. Also provided are methods for obtaining a population of stem cell-derived cell types substantially free of undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells as well as isolated populations of such of stem cell-derived cell types.

The present invention relates to a cell comprising a gene encoding a polypeptide of interest, wherein the polypeptide of interest is expressed comprising one or more posttranslational modification patterns. These modifications are useful for example in improvement of pharmacokinetic properties, i.e. by attaching PEG chains to proteins. The present invention also relates to methods for producing the antibodies and compositions comprising the antibodies, and their uses.

The present invention provides methods for performing an imaging method to detect a moiety associated with labeled hydroxymethylated bases in nucleic acid sequences, such as detecting a moiety associated with glucosylated 5-hydroxmethylated cytosines.

The present invention provides for novel methods for regulating and detecting the cytosine methylation status of DNA. The invention is based upon identification of a novel and surprising catalytic activity for the family of TET proteins, namely TET1, TET2, TET3, and CXXC4. The novel activity is related to the enzymes being capable of converting the cytosine nucleotide 5-methylcytosine into 5-hydroxymethylcytosine by hydroxylation.
