The similar biological activity of rhPC and hPC indicates that porcine mammary gland can perform many of the processing reactions necessary for recombinant synthesis of complex human proteins and produce them at levels suitable for industrial bioreactor applications. The health of the transgenic pigs appeared unaffected by the expression of high levels of the heterologous protein. We suggest that one of the advantages of using the mammary gland as a bioreactor appears to be the high cell density relative to that of cell culture.

D011486 Protein C A vitamin-K dependent zymogen present in the blood, which, upon activation by thrombin and thrombomodulin exerts anticoagulant properties by inactivating factors Va and VIIIa at the rate-limiting steps of thrombin formation.
D011499 Protein Processing, Post-Translational Any of various enzymatically catalyzed post-translational modifications of PEPTIDES or PROTEINS in the cell of origin. These modifications include carboxylation; HYDROXYLATION; ACETYLATION; PHOSPHORYLATION; METHYLATION; GLYCOSYLATION; ubiquitination; oxidation; proteolysis; and crosslinking and result in changes in molecular weight and electrophoretic motility.
