The T-cell surface glycoprotein CD4 plays an important role in cellular immunity and serves as a receptor for HIV. To study the biosynthesis and assembly of CD4, CD4 was overexpressed in wild-type and glycosylation-deficient Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells by cotransfection of a human CD4 cDNA and a cDNA encoding th
