title: The effects of immortalization on the N-glycome and proteome of CDK4-transformed lung cancer cells
abstract: Biological experiments are often conducted in vitro using immortalized cells due to their accessibility and ease of propagation compared to primary cells and live animals. However, immortalized cells may present different proteomic and glycoproteomic characteristics from the primary cell source due to the introduction of genes that enhance proliferation (e.g. CDK4) or enable telomere lengthening. To demonstrate the changes in phenotype upon CDK4-transformation, we performed LC-MS/MS glycomic and
