*The productivities were calculated by comparing the GCR bands of subclones with a standard curve of non-glycosylated recombinant GCR purified from E. coli, in a western blotting assay followed by densitometric analysis. The experiment was conducted in triplicate. The volume of conditioned medium applied to the gel corresponded to the supernatant of 70,000 cells.
