## Abstract The successful movement of a newly synthesized protein through the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and associated membranous compartments is dependent on appropriate recognition by complex processing systems. Failure to perceive appropriately processed or modified intermediates in the pathwa

β¦ Synopsis
Apoptosis can limit the maximum production of recombinant protein expression from cultured mammalian cells. This article focuses on the links between nutrient deprivation, ER perturbation, the regulation of (growth arrest and DNA damage inducible gene 153) GADD153 expression and apoptosis. During batch culture, decreases in glucose and glutamine correlated with an increase in apoptotic cells. This event was paralleled by a simultaneous increase in GADD153 expression. The expression of GADD153 in batch culture was suppressed by the addition of nutrients and with fed-batch culture the onset of apoptosis was delayed but not completely prevented. In defined stress conditions, glucose deprivation had the greatest effect on cell death when compared to glutamine deprivation or the addition of tunicamycin (an inhibitor of glycosylation), added to generate endoplasmic reticulum stress. However, the contribution of apoptosis to overall cell death (as judged by morphology) was smaller in conditions of glucose deprivation than in glutamine deprivation or tunicamycin treatment. Transient activation of GADD153 expression was found to occur in response to all stresses and occurred prior to detection of the onset of cell death. These results imply that GADD153 expression is either a trigger for apoptosis or offers a valid indicator of the likelihood of cell death arising from stresses of relevance to the bioreactor environment.

The GADD153 gene is strongly transcriptionally activated by many types of cellular injury and the magnitude of the change in GADD153 expression is proportional to the extent of damage. We developed a novel reporter system in which a chimeric gene containing the GADD153 promoter linked to the coding
It is now well documented that apoptosis represents the prevalent mode of death in lymphoid cultures and occurs spontaneously in late-exponential phase of batch cultures following nutrient exhaustion. In an attempt to enhance the cell survival of these cell lines, we have initially engineered nonpro
