Dear Wenhe, >From my perspective you have quite a few options. Notably, the presence of glycosylation in the native host does not always (or even often) mean that you *must* have the protein in the native glyco-state in order to be 'right'. Very often glycosylation sites can be trimmed (by e.g.

I would not discard the insect expression right away. In yeast or similar you risk hyperglycosilation while sf tend to have paucimannose and relatively homogeneous glcnac2man5 decorations. It can be hard (and expensive) to homogeneously deglyc enzymatically but not sure if you also want to
