    摘要: A method is described for the rapid identification and isolation of cells based on the presence or absence of an ectopically-expressed N-acetyllactosaminide 3-α Galactosyltransferase (αGT) enzyme for the production of αGalactosyl-(1,3)Galactosyl (αGal) epitopes on the surface of αGal-negative cells. These cells which are genetically modified to express the αGT enzyme and αGal epitopes on glycosylated lipids and proteins of the cell surface are then labeled via an antibody composition which recognizes and binds the αGal epitopes on the cell surface. Cells labeled with the anti-αGal antibody can be isolated by sorting via fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS), or by magnetic panning techniques. This method is suitable for the rapid positive or negative selection of αGal-positive cells from within a population of αGal-negative cells without the need to expose cells to antibiotics for any period of time. In addition, the specification provides a method for the production and purification of anti-αGal antibodies from chicken egg yolk.
