GlycoErase™ ALG5 Knockout Human Prostate Cancer Cell 22RV1 (CAT#: GLJF-0525-JF260)

Description	The ALG5-deficient 22RV1 cell line constitutes a significant model for analyzing the initial phases of glucosylation within the N-glycosylation cascade; the lack of ALG5 disrupts N-glycosylation and protein folding processes, providing a platform for researchers to assess the consequences of these defects on prostate cancer cell survival, metastatic dissemination, interactions with the surrounding stroma, and the screening of compounds capable of modulating N-glycosylation.
