Abstract
The present invention relates to the production of gene sequences encoding chimerical membrane glycosyltransferases presenting an optimized glycosylation activity in cells transformed with the sequences, the gene sequences corresponding to the fusion: of a first nucleic acid coding for a C-terminal minimal fragment of the catalytic domain (CD) of the native full length glycosyltransferase, to a second nucleic acid coding for a transmembrane peptide comprising in its N-terminal region a cytoplasmic tail (CT) region located upstream from a transmembrane domain (TMD), itself located upstream of a stem region (SR), provided that at least one of these CT, TMD, SR peptides being different from the primary structure of the naturally occurring peptide counterparts present in the native glycosyltransferase from which is derived the CD fragment with optimal glycosyltransferase activity as defined above.
