Abstract
The invention relates to the field of cell culture technology. It concerns the knockdown, using RNA interference, or gene knockout, of activating transcription factor 6 beta (ATF6B), or the combination of ceramide synthase 2 (CERS2) and TBC1 domain family member 20 (TBC1 D20) proteins, which play central roles in the cellular secretion pathway. This downregulation leads to improved secretion of biopharmaceutically relevant products produced in mammalian cells. The invention specifically relates to mammalian cells having enhanced secretion of a recombinant therapeutic protein compared to a control cell, a method of producing said mammalian cell, a method for the production of a recombinant secreted therapeutic protein and the use of said mammalian cell for increasing the yield of a recombinant secreted therapeutic protein.
