The present invention relates to a cell culture process for the production of a soluble CTLA4 molecule. FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to new methods and processes for cuituring mammalian cells which produce a protein product, preferably a glycosylated protein product with increased and enhanced sialic acid content. Performance o1 the ceil cuituring methods and processes in their various aspects result in a high quantity and quality of product, as measured by sialic acid content. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Animal cell culture, notably mammalian cell culture, is preferably used for the expression of recombinantiy produced, glycosylated proteins for therapeutic and/or prophylactic applications. Glycosylation patterns of recombinant glycoproteins are important, because the oligosaccharide side chains of glycoproteins affect protein function, as well as the intramolecular interactions between different regions of a protein. Such intramolecular interactions are involved in protein conformation and tertiary structure of the glycoprotein. (See, e.g., A. Wittwer et al., 1990, Biochemistry, 29:4175-4180; Hart, 1992, Can. Op. Cell Biol., 4:1017-1023; Goochee et al., 1991, Bio/Technol., 9:1347-1355; and R.B. Parekh, 1991, Curr, Op. Struct. Biol., 1:750-754). In addition, oligosaccharides may function to target a particular polypeptide to certain structures based on specific cellular carbohydrate receptors. (M.P. Bevilacqua et al., 1993, J. Clin. invest, 91:379-387; R.M. Nelson etal., 1993, J. Clin. InvesV, 91 ;1157-1166; K.E. Norgard et a!., 1993, Proc.Natl, Acad. Sci. USA, 90:1068-1072; and Y. tmai et al., 1993, Nature, 361-555-557). The terminal sialic acid component of a glycoprotein oligosaccharide side chain is known to have an effect on numerous aspects and properties of a glycoprotein, including absorption, solubility, thermal stability, serum half life, clearance from the serum, as well as its physical and chemical structure/behavior and its immunogenicity . (A. Varki, 1993, Glycobiology, 3:97-100; R.B. Parekh, Id., Goochee et al., Id., J. Paulson et al., 1989, TIBS, 14:272-27'6; and A. Kobata, 1992, Eur. J. Biochem., 209:483-501; E.Q. Lawson et al., 1983, Arch. Biochem. Biophys., 220:572-575; and E. Tsuda et al., 1990, Eur. J. Biochem., 188:405-411). In general, protein expression levels in mammalian cell culture-based systems are considerably lower than in rnicrobial expression systems, for example, bacterial or yeast expression systems. However, bacterial and yeast cells are limited in their ability to optimally express high molecular weight protein products, to properly fold a protein having a complex steric structure, and/or to provide the necessary post-translational modifications to mature an expressed glycoprotein, thereby affecting the immunogenicity and clearance rate of the product. Asra consequence of the limitations of the culturing of animal or mammalian cells, particularly animal or mammalian cells which produce recombinant products, the manipulation of a variety of parameters has been investigated, including the employment of large-scale culture vessels; altering basic culture conditions, such as incubation temperature, dissolved oxygen concentration, pH, and the like; the use of different types of media and additives to the media; and increasing the density of the cultured cells. In addition, process development for mammalian cell culture would benefit from advances in the ability to extend run times to increase final product concentration while maintaining high product quality. An important product quality parameter is the degree and completeness of the glycosylation structure of a polypeptide product, with sialic acid content commonly used as a measure of glycoprotein quality. Run times of cell culture processes, particularly non-continuous processes, are usually limited by the remaining viability of the cells, which typically declines over the course of the run. The maximum possible extension of high cell viabilities is therefore desired. Product quality concerns also offer a motivation for minimizing decreases in viable cell density and maintaining high cell viability, as cell death can release sialidases to the culture supernatant, which may reduce the sialic acid content of the protein expressed. Protein purification concerns offer yet another motivation for minimizing decreases in viable cell density and maintaining high cell viability. The presence of cell debris and the contents of dead cells in the culture can negatively impact on the ability to isolate and/or purify the protein product at the end of the culturing run. By keeping cells viable for a longer period of time in culture, there is thus a concomitant reduction in the contamination of the culture medium by cellular proteins and enzymes, e.g., cellular proteases and sialidases, that can cause degradation and ultimate reduction in quality of the desired glycoprotein produced-by the cells. Various parameters have been investigated to achieve high cell viability in cell cultures. One parameter involved a single lowering of the culture temperature following initial culturing at 37°C (for example, Roessler et al., 1996, Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 18:423-427; U.S. Patent Nos. 5,705,364 and 5,721,121 to T. Etcheverry et al., 1998; U.S. Patent No. 5,976,833 to K. Furukawa et al., 1999; U.S. Patent No. 5,851,800 to L. Adamsonetal.; WO 99/61650 and WO 00/65070 to Genentech, Inc.; WO 00/36092 to Biogen, Inc.; and U.S. Patent No. 4,357,422 to Girard et al.). Other parameters investigated involved the addition of components to the culture. The growth factor inhibitor suramin was shown to prevent apoptosis during exponential growth of CHO K1 :CycE cells (Zhangi et al., Biotechnol. Prog. 2000, 16, 319-325). However, suramin did not protect against apoptosis during the death phase. As a result, suramin was capable of maintaining high viability during the growth phase, but did not allow for an extension of culture longevity. The same authors report that for the CHO 111-10PF cell line, dextran sulfate and polyvinyl sulfate could, similarly to suramin, increase day 3 viable cell density and viability relative to the control culture. The effect of dextran sulfate or polyvinyl sulfate during the death phase was however not reported. Suramin, dextran sulfate and polyvinyl sulfate were also reported to be effective at preventing cell aggregation. Heparin has been supplemented to animal eel! culture media in order to adapt anchorage-dependant cell lines to suspension conditions (e .g. U.S. Patent No. 5,348,877to McKenna and Granados, 1994). Heparin is also known to bind to growth factors, such as the heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HB-EGF; Raab and Klagsbrun, Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1997, 1333, F179-F199). Cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) reportedly enhance HB-EGF binding and bioactivity for certain cell types including wild-type CHO cells (Raab and Klagsbrun, 1997). [Heparan sulfate only differs from heparin in that it has fewer N- and O-sulfate groups and more N-acetyl groups (McKenna and Granados, 1994). For the purpose of this disclosure, heparin and heparan sulfate are considered equivalent and will generically be referred to as heparin.] It has been proposed, for the heparin-binding growth factor FGF-2, that binding to HSPG increases the local FGF-2 concentration on the cell surface, which in turn increases the probability of FGF-2 binding to the tyrosine kinase receptors of the cells (Raab and Klagsbrun, 1997). It has been shown that pentosan polysulfate can block the action of heparin-binding growth factors on cultured cells (Zugmaier et al.,. J. Nat. Cancer Inst. 1992, 84,1716-1724. Patent literature on the use of dextran sulfate in animal cell culture pertain to the supplementation of dextran sulfate to% medium in order: 1-) To improve growth rate and increase the number of population doublings before senescence for human endothelial cells (U. S. Patents Nos. 4,994,387 and 5,132,223 to Levine et al., 1991,1992); 2) To increase recombinant protein yield in mammalian cell lines (U. S. Patents No. 5,318,898 to Israel, 1994); 3) To induce single cell suspension in insect cell lines (U. S. Patents No. 5,728,580 to Shuler and Dee, 1996); 4) To increase growth-promoting activity of human hepatocyte-growth factor and to suppress its degradation (U.S. Patent Nos. 5,545,722 and 5,736,506 to Naka, 1996 and 1998); 5) To increase viable cell density and recombinant protein expression (WO 98/08934 to Gorfien et al., 1997). In all reported cases referring to the presence or supplementation of dextran sulfate in a medium, dextran sulfate was present throughout the culture time in that given medium. In no case were the benefits of a delayed addition reported. Moreover, it has never been reported that dextran sulfate can delay the onset of the death phase, extend the growth phase, or arrest the death phase. With increasing product concentration in the culture, it can be observed in cell culture processes that the product quality decreases, as determined by the measured sialic acid content of the oligosaccharide glycostructure. Usually, a lower limit for an acceptable sialic acid content exists as determined by drug clearance studies. High abundance of a protein produced by cells in culture is optimally accompanied by high quality of the protein that is ultimately recovered for an intended use. Such high protein quality is correlated with the degree and completeness of a protein's glycosylation structure, with sialic acid content used as a measure of these parameters. It has been reported that the addition of D-galactose (4 g/L) to the basal medium of a small scale cell culture, e.g., 2 liter (2L) bioreactors, increased galactosylation of the heavy chain of a monoclonal antibody (MAb) produced by the cultured cells. (S. Weikert et al., "Engineering CHO Cells to Maximize Sialic Acid Content of Recombinant Protein", presentation at the "Protein Expression" Meeting, sponsored by the Cambridge Healthtech Institute, April 5-6, 2001, McLean, VA). As reported, galactose was provided as a one-time additive to small scale cultures, and not as a feeding medium additive provided throughout the entire culture period. The report contains no recognition of the obstacles involved in the sialylation of a glycoprotein produced in cultures maintained on a large scale (e.g., greater than 2 L). WO 01/59075 Al (Genentech, Inc.) discloses a process for improved or enhanced sialylation of glycoproteins by introducing into cells in culture a nucleic acid sequence encoding a mutated UDP-GlcNac2-epimerase, which is a rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway of a specific nucleotide sugar, CMP sialic acid. In a similar manner, X. Gu and D. Wang (1998, Biotech. Bioeng., 58(6):642-648) describe supplementing culture medium with ManNac, a specific precursor for sialic acid synthesis, to increase the availability of CMP-sialic acid and improve product sialylation. Similar to WO 01/59075 A1, X. Gu and D.I.C. Wang (1998, Biotech. Bioeng., 58(6):642-648) disclose that the supplementation of culture medium with N-acetylmannosamine (ManNAc) increased the CMP-sialic acid pool in the cells and ultimately the sialic acid content of the recombinantly produced human IFN-y glycoprotein in cultures of 20 ml scale. ManNAc supplementation involved an initial addition of this component to the cultures prior to sialylation analysis of the produced product after 96 hours of culture. WO 01/59089 A2 (Genentech, Inc.) discloses enhancement of intracellular CAD activity in glycoprotein-producing cells made resistant to CAD inhibitors. This published international application discloses that CAD refers to the multienzyme polypeptide complex (carbamoyl phosphate synthetase (CPS II), aspartate transcarbamoylase and dihydro-orotase) that catalyzes the first three reactions in the de novo biosynthesis of pyrimidines, particularly UMP, which is converted to UTP. CAD-resistant cells are reported to have increased UTP pools, and increased UDP-galactose levels along with increased glycosylation of the protein products; UDP-galactose is a known substrate in the glycosylation pathway. Recombinantly produced protein products that are properly glycosylated and sialylated are increasingly becoming medically and clinically important for use as therapeutics, treatments and prophylactics. Therefore, the development of reliable cell culture processes that economically and efficiently achieve an increased final protein product concentration, in conjunction with a high level of product quality, such as is determined by sialic acid content, fulfills both a desired and needed goal in the art. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides new processes for the production of proteins, preferably recombinant protein products, more preferably glycoprotein products, by animal or mammalian cell cultures. The cell culture processes of this invention advantageously achieve an increased and enhanced sialic acid content of the glycoprotein product produced by the cultured cells through the use of a newly-developed feeding strategy comprising the addition of D-galactose to the culture. It is an aspect of this invention to provide cell culture processes for the production of protein products, preferably glycoprotein products, and more preferably, recombinant glycoprotein products, in which the sialic content of the glycoproteins is increased and enhanced by the culturing conditions and parameters utilized in the culturing processes. In accordance with a preferred aspect of this invention, the sialic content of the produced glycoproteins is increased and enhanced by the use of a feeding method in which D-galactose is added to the culture in a feed, preferably in a feed medium. According to a particular and related aspect of this invention, D-galactose is supplied daily to the cells during the entire culture period, leading to an increased D-galactose content of the product and to the addition of more sialic acid moieties to the glycostructure, thereby increasing the quality of the final glycoprotein product. It is another aspect of the present invention to provide an effective method of reversing the problem of decline of glycoprotein sialylation, which frequently accompanies scale-up production of protein with increased reactor scale, e.g., cell culture volume and reactor size. The process of feeding large scale cultures of cells producing glycoprotein product with sialylation effective amounts of D-galactose allows a reversal of the aforementioned "scale effect". The production of large amounts of highly sialylated glycoprotein by the cells, independent of the reactor scale, is also achieved. It is a further aspectof the present invention to provide a method of increasing the sialylation of glycoprotein produced by cultured cells. The method involves the addition of galactose, preferably D-galactose, as a feed, preferably to a feeding medium. Another aspect provides a cell culture process for protein production in which galactose is supplied to the culture, for example, every day, or intermittently, such as every other day, every third day, every fourth day, and the like. Feeding medium containing D-galactose can be added to the cultures one or more times per day. Preferred feeding regimens include a daily bolus feeding of the culture with feeding medium and a continuous feeding by drip or infusion of feeding medium into the cell cultures. In other aspects, D-galactose can be fed to the culture at any of the aforementioned intervals in some way other than in a feeding medium. As non-limiting examples, D-galactose can be fed to the culture in a medium or culture medium other than in a feed medium, or D-galactose can be fed to the culture in water. As a non-limiting example, the culture may be fed with D-galactose and also fed with a feed medium, i.e. there may be more than one composition being fed. In another of its aspects, the present invention provides a cell culture process for increasing protein production and the sialic acid content of the produced glycoprotein. The process further maintains and sustains a high level of sialylation of the produced protein, as well as cell viability. This aspect of the invention embraces an embodiment in which culturing processes that involve two or more temperature shifts during the cell culturing period are employed, in conjunction with feeding the cultures with D-galactose. In this aspect, the temperature shift cell culture methods sustain a high cell viability of the culture during the duration of the culture run. The two or more temperature shifts can also allow cells to be maintained in culture for a period of time that can advantageously extend the culturing run to achieve increased titer and high quality of the desired product, as characterized by sialic acid content. Methods involving such an extended culture run comprise, for example, a two, three, or four week or more (about 14 to 30 days, or more) total cell culture period, compared with a standard, or two week, (about 10-14 days) culture period. As newly provided by the cell culture processes of thisunvention, a combination of the temperature shifts and feeding of the cells with D-galactose, preferably in a feed medium and preferably on a daily basis, results in an enhanced process for the production of increased and improved quantity and quality of sialylated glycoprotein product by the cells in culture. The method is particularly advantageous for fed-batch cell cultures. In various other aspects of the present invention, multi-step temperature shifts, preferably, timed multi-step temperature shifts comprising two or more downward temperature shifts, are used in the culturing of mammalian cells to produce a desired protein product, particularly, a glycoprotein product. Two or more (i.e., at least two) temperature shifts, which may be performed after the growth phase of the culture comprise the processes of this aspect of the invention. With the at least two temperature shifts, preferably with approximately four day increments between the shifts, a high protein yield with a concomitant high sialic acid content of the desired protein product can be achieved. The multiple temperature shifts comprising the culturing methods can achieve both high quality and quantity of protein product, as well as sustain cell viability for the duration of a culturing period. A preferred parameter associated with the temperature shift cell culture processes as described herein is the feeding of the cultures with D-galactose, preferably with feeding medium supplemented to contain D-galactose. Most preferred is a daily feeding regimen. According to the temperature shift cell culturing methods of this invention, the combination of a second, third, fourth, or further downward shift in temperature with a first temperature shift allows the cell cultures to sustain a high cell viability and provides, in an embodiment of the invention, for an extended production phase during which the titer of the protein product is increased and product quality, as characterized by sialic acid content, remains high until the end of the culture run. A culture run as used herein refers to the culturing period, preferably, the entire culture period. As provided by this invention, the feeding of a cell culture during a run comprising no temperature shifts, or only a single temperature shift, with D-galactose, preferably with a feeding medium containing D-galactose, achieves high quantity and quality of protein product, as measured by sialylation of the produced product. For a culture run comprising two. or.more.itemperature shifts, as newly provided by this invention, feeding the cells with feeding medium containing D-galactose during the production run led to increased sialic acid content of the produced glycoprotein. (see, e.g., FIG. 1 in which a daily bolus feed was employed). The length of an entire culture run can last from as short as just after the second temperature shift (for example, about 10-14 days) to as long as about 28 to 30 days, or more. For a culture run comprising three (or more) temperature shifts, the length of the entire run can last from as short as just after the third (or the last) temperature shift (for example, about 14 to 21 days) to as long as about 28 to 30 days or more. Thus, in accordance with the methods of the present invention, cells can be cultured fora total run period of greater than 10 days, greater than 14 days, or greater than 21 days. Preferably, the culture run lasts for at least about 10 to 14 days to about 21 to 30 days, or more. The total culturing run can comprise two, three, four, or more step temperature shifts. As a nonlimiting example, a two-step temperature shift is carried out as follows: the culture temperature is initially maintained at 37°C, or near 37°C, from day 0 to about day 6; from about day 6 to about day 10, the culture temperature is maintained at 34°C, or near 34°C; and from about day 10 onward, e.g., to about day 14 to 28, to about day 14 to 18, or to the end of the culture run, the culture temperature is maintained at 32°C, or near 32°C. A three-step temperature shift culture procedure according to this invention comprises the following nonlimiting, exemplifying format: the cell culture temperature is controlled at 37°C, or near 37°C, from day 0 to about day 6; from about day 6 to about day 10, the culture temperature is maintained at 34°C, or near 34°C; from about day 10 to about day 14, the culture temperature is maintained at 32°C, or near 32°C; and from about day 14 onward, e.g., to about day 21 to day 30, or longer, i.e., to the end of the run, the culture temperature is maintained at 30°C, or near 30°C. Thus, employment of the present cell culturing methods comprising two or more temperature shifts in which high quantity and quality of protein production is achieved is beneficial not only for culture runs having "shorter", e.g., standard, durations (e.g., about 10 to about 14 days), but also for culture runs which can endure longer than the standard production run. Such longer duration culturing runs are achieved because the methods of this invention provide an extension of the initial or standard production phase of protein production by the cultured cells (the initial or standard production phase occurs, in general, at about days 6 to 14). For example, by employing two, three, or more temperature shifts in the culture run in accordance with this invention, high quality and quantity of protein production and cell viability can be maintained and sustained for a total run time of about 10-14 days to a total run time of about 21 to 28 days or more, compared with protein production and product quality in cultures employing no temperature shift or, at most, one temperature shift. In another of its aspects, the present invention provides cell culture methods comprising greater than two or three temperature shifts as described above. In such multi-step temperature shift runs, cells are cultured essentially as described for a three step culturing period, and additional downward temperature shifts are performed until the end of the culture period. For example, a fourth downward temperature shift, i.e., temperature lowering, can be carried out following the third temperature shift culture period, in which the cell culture temperature is further shifted from about 30°C, to about 28°C or 29°C, preferably about 29°C, on or about days 15-19, preferably, day 18, from the start of the culture. Additional temperature shifts can be included in the cell culture method, wherein the cells are maintained at a lower temperature, e.g., In one particular aspect, the present invention provides a process (or method) in which the final titer of product is enhanced, and the sialic acid content of the produced glycoprotein is higher, by the use of a two- or more-step temperature shift process. In accordance with this particular aspect, the combination of two or more timed temperature shifts sustains a high cell viability of the culture, thereby enabling an extended production phase during which the titer of product, preferably recombinant product, is increased and the product quality, as characterized by sialic acid content, is maintained at high level. Such a two-or more-step temperature shift can minimize the prevailing trade-off between protein titer and sialic acid content in the production of product during the cell culture process. Thus, the temperature shifts provide a positive effect on enhancing an important performance parameter of the culturing process, i.e., the mathematical product of "end (i.e., final) titer" x "end (i.e., final) sialic acid" ("end titer x end sialic acid"). In the two- or more-step culturing processes, the cells are preferably fed with medium containing D-galactose, in an amount which allows for high levels of sialylation of the protein product, even in large cultures maintained over extended culturing periods, e.g., greater than about two weeks or longer. Accordingly, in another particular aspect for a two-step culturing method as described herein, cells are maintained in culture from day 0 to on or about day 6 at a temperature of 37°C, or near 37°C; on or about day 6, the temperature of the cell culture is lowered to 34°C, or near 34°C; and on or about day 10, the temperature is again lowered to 32°C, or near 32°C. In one aspect of such a two-step temperature shift method, the production phase is extended beyond about day 14 and continues to the end of the culture run, e.g., until about day 21, or to about day 28 to 30, during which time the cells are maintained in culture at the lower temperature of 32°C, or near 32°C. Protein product can be recovered at the end of the extended production phase as further described herein. It is yet another aspect of the present invention to provide a method for increasing the viability of cells in culture by subjecting the cells to two or more shifts in temperature during the culture run. A condition, such as two or more shifts in temperature, causes increased cell viability if cell viability in the culture is higher for a period of time in the presence of the condition than in the absence of the condition. According to this aspect, the two or more temperature shift cell culturing methods as described allow cells to remain viable for increased time periods, such as beyond the standard production period. As discussed herein, a beneficial consequence of increased cell viability of the cultured cells can be that larger quantities of product (of high quality) are produced at the end of the culturing period, under conditions that are conducive to the maintenance of viable nother aspect of this invention is that increased cell viability resulting from the practice of the two or more temperature shift cell culturing methods correlates with a decreased amount of cell debris and released contents of dead or dying cells over time in the culture. The presence of cell debris and the contents of dead cells in the culture can negatively impact on the ability to isolate and/or purify the protein product at the end of the culturing run. By keeping cells viable for a longer period of time in culture, there is thus a concomitant reduction in the contamination of the culture medium by cell proteins and enzymes, e.g., cellular proteases and sialidases, that can cause degradation and ultimate reduction in quality of the desired glycoprotein produced by the cells. In other aspects of this invention, culturing processes that involve the delayed addition of polyanionic compound are employed in conjunction with feeding the cultures with D-galactose. In one aspect of this invention, both culturing processes that involve delayed addition of polyanionic compound and culturing process that involve two or more temperature shifts are employed in conjunction with feeding the cultures D-galactose. In these aspects involving the delayed addition of polyanionic compound to the cell culture, delayed addition of polyanionic compound achieves increased cell viability. Polyanionic compound preferably is dextran sulfate. Polyanionic compound is added to the culture at a time after innoculation. In one aspect of the invention involving delayed addition of polyanionic compound, polyanionic compound is added to a culture at a time after innoculation that is before the beginning of the initial death phase, or is during the initial growth phase, or is during the second half of the initial growth phase, or is on or about the end of the initial growth phase. In accordance with this aspect of the invention, the growth phase is extended and/or the onset of the death phase is delayed for a period of time, such as several days. Additionally, once the death phase has begun, the death rate is greatly reduced. In another aspect, polyanionic compound is added to a culture during the initial death phase. In accordance with this aspect of the invention, cell death is arrested for a period of time, such as several days. In another preferred aspect of this-invention and as further described herein, the newly developed cell culture processes-involving feeding with D-galactose-containing feeding medium are especially suitable for the production of soluble CTLA4 molecules and soluble CTLA4 mutant molecules, such as CTLA4lg and L104EA29Ylg. In preferred embodiments, soluble CTLA4 molecules and soluble CTLA4 mutant molecules are produced in high quantity and quality by host cells genetically engineered to express and produce these proteins. (See Examples 1-5). Preferred embodiments of the present invention encompass the culturing of cells producing CTLA4lg and L104EA29Ylg using multiple temperature shifts combined with feeding of the cultures with feeding medium containing D-galactose during the culture run to achieve large amounts of high quality CTLA4lg and L104EA29Ylg products, as determined by sialic acid measurement of the final products. Other preferred embodiments include multiple temperature shift culturing processes along with feeding the cell cultures with feeding medium containing D-galactose in an amount effective to achieve CTLA4lg and L104EA29Ylg products having high sialic acid content, as described herein. Other preferred embodiments encompass the culturing of cells producing soluble CTLA4 molecules and soluble CTLA4 mutant molecules, such as CTLA4lg and L104EA29Ylg, using delayed addition of polyanionic compound combined with feeding of the cultures with feeding medium containing D-galactose. Other preferred embodiments encompass the culturing of cells producing CTLA4lg and L104EA29Ylg using delayed addition of polyanionic compound and multiple temperature shifts combined with feeding of the cultures with feeding medium containing D-galactose. Further aspects, features and advantages of the present invention will be appreciated upon a reading of the detailed description of the invention and a consideration of the drawings/figures. DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS/FIGURES FIG. 1 shows the results of employing a feeding regimen comprising D-galactose in the feeding medium during the process of cell culture at 50-L reactor scale to obtain glycoprotein product, namely, the CTLA4lg fusion protein. As observed from FIG. 1, the degree of sialylation Increased With a higher concentration (12.5 g/L) of D-galactose in the feed medium at 50 L reactor scale. Moreover, a further increase of the D-galactose concentration in the feed medium to 20.0 g/L had no positive effects on protein sialylation. FIG. 2 illustrates the impact of D-galactose on product titer in a 21-day cell culture run at 50-L reactor scale employing the culturing and feeding methods of the present invention. As observed in FIG. 2, the titer increase (i.e., cell specific productivity) was not found to be significantly affected by the addition of D-galactose. FIG. 3 shows the residual D-galactose concentration cell culture of the invention at the concentration of 12.5 g/L D-galactose in the feeding medium, which was found to be optimal at 50-L and 5000-L reactor scales. During the production phase when the titer increased (i.e., days 6-21), the residual D-galactose concentration in the culture was preferably > 0.25 g/L. FIG. 4 illustrates the scale effect observed during the scale-up of the cell culture process to 5000-L for the production of CTLA4lg. The sialylation of the glycoprotein was found to decline with increasing reactor scale. FIG. 5 shows the reversal of the scale effect after the addition of 12.5 g/L D-galactose into the feed medium with feeding on a daily basis. This D-galactose feeding technique allowed the production of large amounts of highly sialylated CTLA4lg in large-scale production reactors. FIG. 6 shows the impact of different temperature shift profiles on cell viability for cells cultured at a 5 liter (5 L) reactor scale. These results were obtained from the experiments described in Example 5 herein. Comparison is made among culturing methods involving no temperature shift ("no T-shift"), a single temperature shift ("single T-shift") and two downward temperature shifts ("double T-shift"). FIG. 7 shows the impact of different temperature shift profiles on cell viability for cells cultured at a 50 liter (50 L) reactor scale. These results were • obtained from the experiments described in Example 5 herein.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention describes new processes for the production of proteins, preferably recombinant protein products, more preferably glycoprotein products, in mammalian cell culture. The cell culturing processes according to this invention achieve an enhanced and increased sialic acid content of the glycoprotein produced by the cultured cells, thus providing a high quality protein product at the end of the culturing run. Culturina processes involving feeding with D-qalactose This invention is directed to an enhanced process (method) for the preparation of glycoproteins, particularly recombinant glycoproteins, by mammalian cell cultures, in which the sialic acid content of the produced glycoprotein is increased by the use of a newly-described feeding strategy in which D-galactose is fed to the cultures, preferably in a feed medium. D-galactose is provided to the cell cultures so that D-galactose is present in the cultures in an amount that is effective for attaining and maintaining high sialylation of the produced protein until the end of a culturing run. As described herein, a variety of feeding regimens are encompassed by the present invention to result in a residual D-galactose presence in the culture for the duration of a culturing run. In accordance with this invention, the addition of D-galactose to the glycostructure of a produced protein was identified as being a rate-limiting step of product sialylation. The presence of an effective amount of D-galactose in the feeding medium over the course of the culturing process was found to result in an increased D-galactose content of the product. This, in turn, resulted in the addition of more sialic acid moieties to the protein glycostructure, thereby increasing the product quality. To maintain and/or sustain the higher degree of sialylation of product, it is preferred to maintain the D-galactose feeding strategy throughout the culture run. The processes and methods of the present invention are suited to both small (e.g4= 50 L-100 L) and large scale (e.g., 500 Land greater) cell cultures. In addition, the methods of the present invention are particularly suited to cells grown and maintained as fed-batch cultures, of both small and large scale, as further described herein. In addition, a variety of culture media as known in the art can be used in the culturing methods of this invention. Suitable culturing media are further described herein. An advantage of the present invention is that protein production costs are reduced by the increase in overall quality (e.g., as measured by sialic acid content) of the final product as achieved by the culturing methods described herein. In a preferred embodiment, a high sialic acid content of the product was maintained throughout the culture run when D-galactose was included in the feeding medium supplied to the cell culture, preferably on a daily basis, (see, e.g., Examples 1 and 2). Interestingly, an interruption or discontinuation of the D-galactose feed at day 10 of the culture run led to a reversal of high product quality, and the formation of lower sialylated protein species. (Example 2). Moreover, the addition of D-galactose to cell cultures, preferably large scale cultures, producing a given protein, e.g., CTLA4lg, via the feeding medium was able to reverse an observed detrimental scale effect (e.g., increased reactor size) to the quality of the product. The reversal of scale effect was most significant when galactose was present in the daily feeding medium of the cultures. In the absence of D-galactose addition to the feeding medium, the degree of sialylation of the glycoprotein declined with increasing reactor scale. Accordingly, a preferred embodiment of the invention involves the maintenance of the D-galactose feeding strategy throughout a production run, preferably, with daily feeding, to allow for the production of large amounts of highly sialylated glycoprotein independent of the reactor scale. Providing a feed containing D-galactose, preferably a feeding medium comprising D-galactose, at a sialylation effective level throughout the entire cell culture process advantageously causes a reversal of scale-up effects and avoids a decline in protein sialylation and the formation of lower sialylated glycoprotein product species. For example, during the scale-up of cell culture processes to several thousand liters of reactor volume, it can be observed that the product quality, as measurably determined by the degree of sialylation of the glycoprotein, declines with increasing reactor scale. This observation may be due to a higher stress level experienced by the culture at the larger scale, which impacts on the D-galactose metabolism of the cell. As exemplified herein, the addition of D-galactose to the culture via the feeding medium more than one time during the culture run (e.g., on a daily basis) was able to reverse or undo such a detrimental scale-up effect and allowed for the production of glycoprotein of high quality and sialylation characteristics, independent of the reactor size utilized. Thus, the presence of a sustained level of D-galactose in a feed, preferably in a feed medium, is particularly advantageous for large scale cell cultures having the most pronounced scale effect. An effective concentration of D-galactose as a component in a feed, preferably in the cell culture feeding medium, enhances, increases, maintains and/or sustains a high sialic acid content of the product throughout the production run. The amount of D-galactose suitable for use in the feeding medium can be determined by the skilled practitioner based on the reactor size and volume of the culture. The methods of the present invention are suitable for all reactor scales at which protein production occur, including, but not limited to, large and small production scale, and reactor scale, e.g., large scale cultures or commercial scale cultures, e.g., over 50 L, more preferably over 500 L. For example, the galactose feed methods are applicable for production scale cultures, e.g., having a volume of about 50 liters (50 L) or less, as well as for reactor scale cultures, which can have a volume of several hundreds or thousands of liters. In accordance with the methods of this invention, the galactose concentration in the feeding medium is preferably provided in an amount which affords a sustained or maintained level of D-galactose in the culture, or reactor, during the culturing process. An amount of D-galactose suitable for use in the feeding medium comprises from about 1 g/L to about 50 g/L, preferably about 3 g/L to about 25 g/L, more preferably about 3 g/L to about 20 g/L. As a specific yet nonlimiting example, 12.5 g/L of D-galactose in the feeding medium is suitable for use in the culturing method of the invention, particularly for example, for 50 L reactor scale. Further, it is preferred that the residual galactose concentration in the culture medium used for culturing cells (e.g., in a reactor or culturing vessel) is maintained and sustained throughout the culturing run in an arnountof about 0.1-10 g/L, preferably, about 0.1-5 g/L, more preferably, about 0.2-5 g/L, more preferably, about 0.2-2.5 g/L, even more preferably, about 0.5-2 g/L, and most preferably about 0.5-1.0 g/L. These residual concentrations of galactose in the culture medium apply whether the galactose is fed via a feeding medium or in some other way. Cell cultures are fed with feeding medium containing D-galactose using a variety of feeding schedules or regimens to deliver and maintain D-galactose in the cultures in amounts that sustain a sialylation effective D-galactose concentration and enhance and increase the sialylation of glycoprotein. In general, the culturing methods of the present invention comprise the feeding of cell cultures with D-galactose in the feeding medium more than one time during the culture run. It is to be understood that the culture volume contributed by the feeding medium at the end of a culture run typically comprises approximately 30-60% of the original culture volume. The cell cultures can be fed D-galactose on a daily basis, or on other than a daily basis, e.g., less often than once per day, and at varying intervals, preferably timed intervals, including every other day, every third day, every fourth day, and the like. For example, the feeding of cell cultures with D-galactose, preferably with D-galactose-containing feeding medium, can be performed once per day, more than once per day, or less than once per day, and can occur one time, two times, or more than two times, e.g., three, four, five or more times, during the total culture run. In one embodiment, the cells are fed with D-galactose more than once. Also encompassed by this invention is a continuous feeding schedule, for example, involving a continuous infusion of D-galactose, preferably a D-galactose-containing feeding medium, into the cultures. In such a continuous feeding regimen, the cultures receive D-galactose, preferably in feeding medium, for example, as a continuously-supplied "drip", or infusion, or other automated addition to the culture, in a timed, regulated, and/or programmed fashion so as to achieve and maintain the appropriate amount of galactose in the culture. Most preferred is a feeding regimen comprising a one time per day bolus feed with D-galactose, preferably with feeding medium containing D-galactose on each day of the culture-run, from the beginning of the culture run to the day of harvesting the cells. In accordance with the invention, D-galactose can be fed to the cell culture at any of the aforementioned intervals in some way other than in the feed medium. As non-limiting examples, D-galactose can be fed to the culture in a medium or culture medium other than in a feed medium, or D-galactose can be fed to the culture in water. As a non-lirniting example, the culture may be fed with D-galactose and also fed with a feed medium, i.e. there may be more than one composition being fed. As used herein, the term "feed" refers to any addition of any substance made to a culture after inoculation. Feeding can be one or more additions. As used herein, the term "inoculation" refers to the addition of cells to starting medium to begin the culture. As used herein, the terms "feed medium" and "feeding medium" refer to a medium containing one or more nutrients that is added to the culture beginning at some time after inoculation. As used herein, the term "basal medium" refers to starting medium to which cells are added to begin the culture. In another of its embodiments, the present invention encompasses a cell culture method or process of increasing sialylation of a glycoprotein product produced by cell culture, comprising the addition of galactose, e.g., D-galactose, to the culturing medium. A related embodiment involves a cell culture method in which D-galactose is supplied to the culture for the duration of the production run, and preferably is present in the feeding medium. A preferred embodiment relates to processes of culturing cells comprising a daily feeding of the culture with medium containing D-galactose. The availability of galactose to the cells in culture as provided by this method, preferably supplied more than one time during the culture run, more preferably, on a daily basis, overcomes the potential for a limiting amount of galactose in the culture, thereby allowing the glycoprotein to form with ample sialic acid moieties added to the structure, so as to increase the sialylation of the final product and to reverse the aforementioned problem of a scale up effect. In accordance with this invention, sialylation of protein is increased, on average, about 1.2 to 1.5 fold when cell cultures are fed with D-galactose during the culture run, as compared with cell cultures in the absence of D-galactose feeding, or with cultures in which feeding with D-galactose is discontinued or stopped prior to the end of the culture run. In a preferred embodiment involving the culture of cells producing soluble CTLA4 glycoprotein molecules, such as CTLA4lg, and soluble CTLA4 mutant molecules, such as L104EA29Ylg, as described further below, a concentration of D-galactose effective to maintain a high sialic acid content of the product throughout the production run was present in the feeding medium and was fed to the cell culture on a daily basis. (Example 2). Illustratively, an effective amount of D-galactose in the feeding medium constitutes from about 1 g/L to about 50 g/L, preferably about 3 g/L to about 25 g/L, more preferably about 3 g/L to about 20 g/L. D-galactose in the amount of about 12.5 g/L in the feeding medium is particularly suitable for use in the large scale cultures (e.g., 50 L) according to the method of the invention. The addition of D-galactose to the CTLA4lg glycostructure was determined to be the rate-limiting step of product sialylation. An interruption or discontinuation of the D-galactose feed led to a reversal and a formation of lower sialylated CTLA4lg glycoprotein product. Accordingly, the inclusion of D-galactose in the daily feeding medium was preferably maintained throughout the production run to achieve and sustain a completely sialylated product of high quality. The daily addition of D-galactose to the feeding medium for large scale cultures producing CTLA4lg was found to achieve the reversal of an observed detrimental scale effect to the quality of the final product. More specifically, in the absence of D-galactose in the feeding medium, the degree of sialylation of the CTLA4lg glycoprotein declined with increasing reactor scale. The daily addition of D-galactose to large scale cultures producing CTLA4lg allowed the production of large amounts of highly sialylated glycoprotein, independent of reactor scale. Culturing methods involving feeding with galactose in combination with temperature shifts during the culture run Other embodiments of this invention relate'to cell culturing processes involving two or more temperature shifts that achieve increased cell viability and can result in extended production phases for product and increased product, as well as high quality of the product as measured by sialic acid content. Cell culturing processes and methods involving two or more temperature shifts are disclosed in commonly-assigned patent applications U.S. Serial No. 60/436,101, filed December 23, 2002, and U.S. Serial No. 107, filed concomitantly herewith, the contents of which are incorporated by reference herein, and are further described below. Such temperature shift culturing methods may be conveniently used in combination with the galactose feeding processes as described herein, to result in high levels of end product quality and quantity. In accordance with the temperature shift culturing methods of this invention, the combination of two or more temperature shifts, preferably downward temperature shifts, during the cell culturing period can allow for a high quantity and quality of protein product to be produced by the cells at the end of the culturing period, compared with culturing methods involving no temperature shift, or only one temperature shift. Illustratively, as shown in Example 5, a culturing process with two or three temperature shifts was demonstrated to yield an increase in the quantity of protein (e.g., end titer) compared with no temperature shift or only one temperature shift, regardless of the total length of the culture run. In additional embodiments of the present invention, timed multi-step temperature shifts are used in the culturing of mammalian cells to produce a desired protein product, particularly, a glycoprotein product. More preferably, the cells produce a recombinantly produced protein, polypeptide or peptide product. However, in some cases, the cells may actively produce, or overproduce, an endogenous or natural product which can be harvested or recovered following the practice of the present invention. As described herein, two or more temperature shifts, preferably controlled, downward temperature shifts, carried out at appropriately timed intervals during the culturing period, can be used in the processes of this invention to achieve a high protein yield with a concomitant high sialic acid content. In accordance with the cell culturing methodsvand processes of this invention (also referred to as production or fermentation runs), cells cultured in conjunction with two or more temperature shifts during a eulturing run can produce a high quantity and quality of product during the run, as measured by end titer and sialic acid content at the end of the run. The high quantity and quality of protein production associated with the methods of this invention are obtained relative to methods in which no temperature shift, or at most, one temperature shift is used, regardless of whether a culture run is carried out for a total run time of about 10-14 days or for more than 14 days. Moreover, as a result of the two or more temperature shifts during the culturing process, cells can be maintained in culture for a period of time that essentially extends the standard or initial production phase. A standard or initial production phase is typically about 6 to 14 days. Increased production of high quality protein, as well as sustained cell viability, are achieved during the extended production phase of the present culturing methods involving two or more temperature shifts. Also according to the present culturing methods, cells can be cultured for a total run period of greater than about 10 days, greater than about 14 days, greater than about 21 days, or greater than about 28 days, preferably, about 14 to 30 days, or more. For example, in a culture run of this invention that comprises two or more temperature shifts, the length of the entire run can last from as short as just after the second (or last) temperature shift (for example, about 14 days) to as long as about 21 to 30 days or more, preferably about 28 days or more. In an embodiment of the present invention, the extended production phase is associated with the multiple temperature shifts that comprise the cell culturing methods of this invention. According to the new cell culture methods of this invention, the combination of a second, third, or further temperature shift with a first temperature shift not only allows the cell cultures to produce high quantity and quality of product throughout the duration of the culture run, but also allows the culture to sustain a high cell viability throughout the run and/or throughout an extended production phase until the end of the culture run. During the culture run, including the extended production phase, the titer of the protein product is increased and product quality, as characterized by sialic acid content, remains high. Mqre particularly, in one of its specific embodiments, the present invention embraces cell culture methods that extend the initial production phase of protein production by cultured cells (i.e., the standard production phase that encompasses about days 6-14 is extended). By employing two or more temperature shifts in the culture run in accordance with this invention, an extended production phase at about days 14-21 was achieved. With three (or more) temperature shifts in the culture run, the culture run was further extended to about 21-28 or 30 days, or more, with concomitantly higher yields of protein product of high quality (e.g., high sialic acid content), (e.g., Example 5). Thus, the present invention advantageously combines the two or more temperature shift cell culture methods according to this invention with the inclusion of a feeding regimen comprising the addition of D-galactose to the feeding medium. By including D-galactose as a component in the feeding medium, a significant increase in product sialylation was found to occur throughout the cell culture process, and high levels of sialylated protein were produced at the end of the culturing run. In a particular embodiment of this invention, the cell culturing (or fermentation) process encompasses a two step downward temperature shift in which cells are maintained at three different temperatures during the total culturing run. In this embodiment, the total cell culturing period lasts greater than about 10 days, more specifically, about 14 to 28 days or more, i.e., about two to three weeks or more, prior to obtaining the end protein product (and measuring sialic acid content). For example, in such a two step method, cells are maintained at a first temperature of about 36°C to 38°C, preferably, 37°C, or near 37°C, for an initial culturing period of from day 0 to about day 6. Thereafter, from about day 5 to day 7, preferably day 6, to about day 10, the culture temperature is maintained at a second temperature of about 33°C to 35°C, preferably, 34°C, or near 34°C. Following cell culture at or near 34°C, the temperature is shifted a second time (secondary T-shift) to a third temperature of about 31 °C to 33°C, preferably, 32°C, or near 32°C. The secondary T-shift occurs on or about day 6 to about day 14, preferably from about day 10 to about day 14, more preferably, on or about day 10; which in various embodiments may be during the standard production phase, during the growth phase, or during the death phase. Preferably there are approximately four day increments between the first and the second temperature shifts, more preferably four day increments. The cells are maintained at a temperature of 32°C, or near 32°C until the end of the total culture run, e.g., for longer than about day 10, more specifically, to about days 12-18, or to about days 14-18, or to about days 14-28 or 30, or more. At the end of the culturing process, the protein product is typically isolated and/or purified, for example, from the culture supernatant, if the product is secreted into the culture medium. Alternatively in the multiple temperature shift culturing methods of this invention, the temperature may be first lowered based on the phase of the culture. The first temperature shift preferably occurs before the start of the death phase. In one embodiment, the temperature is first lowered concurrently with the slowing of cell growth. For example, the temperature is shifted from 37°C, or near 37°C, to 34°C, or near 34°C, when the cells are no longer in their exponential growth phase and the culture is in the stationary phase, for example, on or about day 6 of culture. At this time, the viable cell concentration has reached a suitable cell density for protein production, preferably enhanced protein production, for example, about 2-12 x 106 cells/mL, such as 2-9 x 106 cells/mL, 3-7 x 106 cells/mL, 4-5 x 106 cells/mL, 3-4 x 106 cells/ml, 2-4 x 106 cells/mL, 4-6 x 106 cells/ml, 6-8 x 106 cells/mL, 8-10 x 106 cells/mL, or 10-12 x 106 cells/mL. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is possible that the slowing of cell growth correlates with the depletion of nutrients and/or particular components of the cell culture medium, e.g., a nitrogen limitation in the medium. In another embodiment, the first shift in temperature occurs during the growth phase, for example when the viable cell concentration is about 2-12 x 106 cells/mL, such as 2-9 x 106 cells/mL, 3-7 x 106 cells/mL, 4-5 x 106 cells/mL, 3-4 x 106 cells/mL, 2-4 x 106 cells/mL, 4-6 x 106 cells/mL, 6-8 x 106 cells/mL, 8-10 x 106 cells/mL, or 10-12 x 106 cells/mL. In another specific embodiment embracing the two-step temperature shift culturing process, cells are cultured for a 14 day run in which the culture temperature is maintained at or near 37°C from day 0 to day 6. From about day 6 to about day 10, the culture temperature is maintained at or near 34°C; and from about day 10 to about day 14, the culture temperature is maintained at or near 32°C. As another embodiment, cells are cultured for about a 21 day period in which the culture temperature is maintained at or near 37°C from day 0 to about day 6; from about day 6 to about day 10, the culture temperature is maintained at or near 34°C; and from about day 10 to about day 21, the culture temperature is maintained at or near 32°C. As yet another embodiment, cells are cultured for about a 28 day period in which the culture temperature is maintained at or near 37°C from day 0 to about day 6; from about day 6 to about day 10, the culture temperature is maintained at or near 34°C; and from about day 10 to about day 28, the culture temperature is maintained at or near 32°C. The present invention also encompasses embodiments in which the cell culturing methods comprise three or more temperature shifts. In one embodiment involving a three-step temperature shift culturing process, cells are initially cultured at a first temperature of about 36°C to 38°C, preferably, at or near 37°C for about 6 days; thereafter, the culture temperature is shifted and maintained at about 33°C to 35°C, preferably, at or near 34°C for a given time period; a second shift to a temperature of about 31 °C to 33°C, preferably, at or near 32°C occurs thereafter. A third temperature shift to a temperature of about 29°C to 31 °C, preferably at or near 30°C, follows the culturing period at 32°C or near 32°C; the temperature is then held at or near 30°C until the end of the run. In other embodiments, further temperature shifts, preferably downward temperature shifts, can be performed following the third temperature shift of the culture method. For example, a fourth temperature shift can follow the third shift on or about day 15-20, preferably at about day 18 from the start of the culture. The fourth downward shift maintains the culture temperature at or near 28°C to 29°C, preferably, about 29°C, and increases the culture run to greater than about 28 days, e.g., to about 28-32 days or more, at which time product is obtained. As in the two-step temperature shift culturing run procedure according to this invention, the first shift in temperature in the multiple temperature shift processes of the present invention can occur when the cells have essentially stopped growing and have become stationary or approximately so. Illustratively, the temperature shift is performed when the viable celt concentration is about 2-12 x 106 cells/mL, such as 2-9 x 106 cells/ml, 3-7 x 106 cells/ml, 4-5 x 106 cells/mL, 3-4 x 106 cells/mL, 2-4 x 106 cells/ml, 4-6 x 106 cells/ml, 6-8 x 106 cells/mL, 8-10 x 106 cells/mL, or 10-12 x 106 cells/mL. Alternatively, the first shift in temperature occurs during the growth phase, for example when the viable cell concentration is about 2-12 x 106 cells/mL, such as 2-9 x 106 cells/mL, 3-7 x 106 cells/mL, 4-5 x 106 cells/mL, 3-4 x 106 cells/mL, 2-4 x 106 cells/mL, 4-6 x 106 cells/mL, 6-8 x 106 cells/mL, 8-10 x 106 cells/mL, or 10-12 x 106 cells/mL. In a preferred embodiment, the multi-step cell culturing process comprises three timed and controlled temperature shifts during a culturing period of about three to four weeks, e.g., 21-30 days or more, preferably 28 days or more, providing extended production of product by the cells in culture. To illustrate, the three-step temperature shift process comprises an initial culturing period from 0 to about 6 days, preferably 6 days, during which time cells are cultured at a temperature of 37°C, or near 37°C. From about day 6 to about day 10, the cells are cultured at 34°C, or near 34°C. From about day 10 to about day 14, the culture temperature is maintained at 32°C, or near 32°C; and from about day 14 onward, i.e., to about day 21 to day 30 or more, or to the end of the run, the culture temperature is maintained at 30°C, or near 30°C. Accordingly, in the three-step temperature shift culture process of this invention, the production phase may also be extended to yield higher end titer of protein and higher cell viability for a time period longer than about 14 days, in contrast to the standard production phase of about 6 to 14 days with only one or no temperature shift(s). Advantageously, the production phase and cell viability may be further extended by the three-step T-shift method, i.e., to about three weeks or more, with accompanying high quality of product, as measured by sialic acid content. In the various embodiments of the present invention, the second temperature shift to 32°C, or near 32°C allows higher quantity and quality of protein at the end of the culture run, and is also associated with extended protein production during a run that can last for more than about two weeks. The two or more shifts in temperature permit the culture to stabilize a slow decline in cell viability which can occur during the previous two weeks in culture. Yet another temperature shift from 32°C, or near 32°G, to 30°C, or near 30°C,itimed at about two weeks, or thereabouts, provides a further extension of the production phase, thus prolonging the production phase of the cell culture to the end of the culturing run, e.g., to about day 21 to day 30 or more, while maintaining cell viability without sacrificing the quality (as determined by measurement of sialylation) of the product produced. (See Example 5, Tables 2 and 3). Additional temperature shifts can extend cell production beyond that of the two and three temperature shift runs. In other embodiments, the present invention is directed to (i) a cell culturing process, (ii) a method of increasing protein production, preferably associated with increased cell viability, (iii) a method of enhancing sialylation of a protein product, (iv) a method of enhancing cell viability, or (v) a method of extending protein production, involving two or more temperature shifts, comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest at a temperature at or near 37°C under conditions and for a time period that allow for cell growth; lowering the temperature of the cell culture and culturing the cells at a second temperature at or near 34°C when the culture is in the stationary phase; again lowering the temperature of the cell culture and culturing the cells at a third temperature at or near 32°C at a time during the standard production phase of about day 6 to day 14, e.g., on or about ten days from the start of the culture, until the end of culturing period. As has been noted herein, the culturing period can comprise a total run time of greater than 10 days, greater than 14 days, greater than 21 days, or greater than 28-30 days. Following culture of the cells at 32°C, i.e., at the end of the culture run, the produced protein product, preferably a glycoprotein, is obtained. In other embodiments, the present invention is directed to (i) a cell culturing process, (ii) a method of increasing protein production, preferably associated with increased cell viability, (iii) a method of enhancing sialylation of a protein product, (iv) a method of enhancing cell viability, or (v) a method of extending protein production, involving two or more temperature shifts, comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest at a temperature at or near 37°C under conditions and for a time period that allow for cell growth; lowering the temperature of the cell culture and culturing the cells at a second temperature at or near 34°C starting about day 5 to day 7; again lowering the temperature of the cell culture and culturing the cells at a third temperature at or near 32°C starting, about day 6 to day 14, e.g., on or about ten days from the start of the culture, until the end of culturing period. As has been noted herein, the culturing period can comprise a total run time of greater than 10 days, greater than 14 days, greater than 21 days, or greater than 28-30 days. Following culture of the cells at 32°C, i.e., at the end of the culture run, the produced protein product, preferably a glycoprotein, is obtained. In another of its embodiments, the present invention provides culture methods further comprising another temperature downshift from at or near 32°C to at or near 30°C on or about 14 days from the start of the culture until the end of the culturing process, thereby extending the culture period well beyond a standard production phase. To further extend protein production during the culturing process, as well as cell viability, the method can comprise a fourth temperature downshift from at or near 30°C to at or near 29°C on or about 15 to 19 days, preferably 18 days, from the start of the culture until the end of the culturing process. The temperature shifts of this invention are typically on or about day 6 of the culture period, which may be during or after the growth phase of the culture, and thereafter at approximately 4 day increments, preferably 4 day increments. In some embodiments, the timing of the shifts in temperature may approximate the beginning (e.g., on or about day 6), the middle (e.g., on or about day 10) and the end (e.g., on or about day 14) of the standard production phase. In the culturing processes or methods according to this invention in which the final titer and sialic acid content of a produced glycoprotein is enhanced by the use of a multi-step (e.g., two step, three step or more) temperature shift profile, the combination of at least two, timed temperature shifts allows a total culture run to be carried out for greater than 10 days, greater than 14 days, greater than 21 days, or greater than 28 or more days, without sacrificing end titer and sialylation of the product In accordance with the culturing processes of this invention, the two or more temperature shifts sustain a high cell viability of the culture and can allow more high titer and high quality protein to be produced in a culture run compared with a run that occurs for the same period of time,-but does not include two or more temperature shifts. Also, the two or more temperature shifts can allow the production phase of the culture to extend beyond that of a standard production phase and/or beyond the production of a culture having no temperature shift, or at most, one temperature shift. Such multi-step temperature shifts, such as the two-or more-step temperature shift, can minimize the prevailing trade-off between titer ("end titer") and sialic acid content in the production of protein product in the cell culture process. Thus, the temperature shifts provide a positive effect on enhancing the mathematical product of "end titer x end sialic acid", which improves on the protein production process. In a particular embodiment, the present invention is directed to (i) a cell culturing process, (ii) a method of increasing protein production, or (iii) a method of enhancing cell viability, in conjunction with an increase and enhancement of sialylation of a given protetn glycoprotein product, comprising the two or more temperature shift steps as described above, and further including feeding the cells, preferably on a daily basis with D-galactose, preferably with medium supplemented to contain D-galactose, at a sustained concentration that results in increased sialylation of the glycoprotein product at the end of the culturing run. ** a cell culture process for the production of protein, comprising: culturing host cells which produce a protein of interest in cell culture under conditions that allow for protein production; feeding the cells with D-galactose; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture at a time after innoculation. In a particular embodiment, the invention is directed to a cell culture process for the production of protein, comprising: culturing host cells which produce a protein of interest in cell culture under conditions that allow for protein production; culturing the host cells at a temperature at or near 37°C under conditions and for a time period that allow for cell growth; culturing the cells at a second temperature at or near 34°C; culturing the cells at a third temperature at or near 32°C; and feeding the cells with D-galactose. Additional embodiments in accordance with the invention of cell culture processes involving two or more temperature shifts In one .embodiment of this invention, a multiple temperature shift culturing process is encompassed, comprising culturing host cells which express a protein of interest at a first temperature at or near 37°C under conditions and for a time that allow for cell growth. Following the cell growth period, the cells are cultured at a second temperature at or near 34°C when cell growth has slowed and becomes approximately stationary. Thereafter, the cells are cultured at a third temperature at or near 32°C during the standard production phase of culture, i.e., on or about day 6 to on or about day 14. Cells are fed daily. At the end of the culturing process, the produced protein product can be obtained. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of this invention, the cells are cultured in a batch-fed process comprising several phases, namely, a growth phase, during which cells are cultured at a first temperature at or near 37°C; an initial or standard production phase, during which cells are cultured at a second temperature at or near 34°C and at a third temperature at or near 32°C so as to provide an extended protein production phase, which can include a fourth temperature at or near 30°C, and optionally thereafter, additional lower temperatures, such as at or near 29°C. In the cases of the two or more-step temperature shift runs of this invention, extension of protein production is related to the two or more downward shifts in temperature. The cultures are preferably fed with feeding medium containing D-galactose on a daily, or continuous, basis. As described herein, an extended production phase comprises a successive lowering of the temperature of the culture at different intervals two or more times following the first temperature switch from at or near 37°C to at or near 34°C. Relative to no temperature shifting, or only one temperature shift, protein production is increased and high product quality (as measured by sialic acid content of the final product) is attained by the practice of these methods involving two or more downward temperature shifts during the culturing run. During the growth phase of cell culture, e.g., from day 0 to about day 6, the . cell density in the culture increases as the cells are typically rapidly dividing in this period of exponential cell growth, or log phase. In the non-growth associated cell culturing and protein production methods present in some aspects of this invention, no significant amounts of protein produc^afe produced during the growth phase in which cell growth is essentially maximized under appropriate growth conditions. Thus, as a consequence of nutrient limitations in the culture, the cells typically enter a stationary phase on about days 4 to 6, in which rapid cell growth plateaus and/or declines. In these culturing methods, the protein production phase begins when cell growth has essentially ended (e.g., at about day 6 to about day 10). (Example 4). In accordance with the culturing method of a preferred embodiment, when the cells reach stationary phase on about day 6, the temperature is shifted downward from at or near 37°C to at or near 34°C. Thereafter, at a time that is near the midpoint between the first temperature shift (about day 6) and the onset of the extended production phase (about day 14), the temperature of the culture is again lowered from at or near 34°C to at or near 32°C. The second temperature shift allows the culture to stabilize cell viability, which typically slowly declines through about day 14; thereafter, an extension of the production phase begins (at about day 14 to about day 21 to day 30 or longer, preferably to about day 21 to day 28 or longer). As has been described above, other temperature shifts, e.g., a third, fourth, or more, can be employed during the extended production phase of the culture run. Culturina methods involving feeding with aalactose in combination with delayed addition of polvanionic compound Other embodiments of this invention relate to cell culturing processes involving delayed addition of polyanionic compound. Cell culturing methods involving delayed addition of polyanionic compound are disclosed in commonly - assigned patent application U.S. Serial No. 107 , filed concomitantly herewith, the contents of which are incorporated by reference herein, and are further described below. Such delayed addition of polyanionic compound may be used in combination with the galactose feeding processes described herein. In accordance with the embodiments of the present invention involving the delayed addition of polyanionic compound is provided, the process comprises adding polyanionic compound to a cell culture at a time after innoculation. The delayed addition of polyanionic compound achieves increased cell viability as compared to that observed in the absence of additionsof ipolyanionJacompound, or as compared to that observed when polyanionic compound is added at inoculation. Thus, in one embodiment, the invention is directed to a cell culturing process comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture at a time after innoculation. It has been found (see Example 8) that when carrying the present invention the percent cell viability of the cell culture is increased. Percent cell viability, also known as cell viability, is the percent of viable cells in the total number of cells. A condition, such as delayed addition of polyanionic compound, causes increased cell viability if cell viability in the culture is higher for a period of time in the presence of the condition than in the absence of the condition. Thus, in other embodiments, the invention is directed to (1) a cell culturing process, and (2) a method of increasing the cell viability in a culture comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture at a time after innoculation; wherein the cell viability of the cell culture is increased. Polyanionic compounds include, but are not limited to, dextran sulfate (available from Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), heparin (available from Sigma-Aldrich), heparan sulfate (available from Sigma-Aldrich), mannan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate (available from Sigma-Aldrich), dermatan sulfate (available i from Sigma-Aldrich), keratan sulfate (available from Sigma-Aldrich), hyaluronate (available from Sigma-Aldrich), poly(vinyl sulfate) (available from Sigma-Aldrich), kappa-carrageenan (available from Sigma-Aldrich), and suramin (available from Sigma-Aldrich). The compounds are readily available from the listed sources, or readily obtainable through means known to one of skill in the art. These compounds are frequently available in the form of a salt, including but not limited to sodium salt, but may also be used in non-salt forms. A polyanionic compound includes all forms thereof, including but not limited to salt forms, such as sodium salts. Preferred polyanionic compounds are poysulfated compounds, including but not limited to: dextran sulfate, heparin, heparan sulfate, pentosan sulfate, -xylofuranan sulfate, curdlan sulfate, curdlan galactose sulfate, curdlan arabinose sulfate, mannan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, keratan sulfate, poly(vinyl sulfate), kappa-carrageenan, and suramin. Most preferred is dextran sulfate. Dextran sulfate may have an average molecular weight of 5,000 to 500,000 Da. Preferred is dextran sulfate with a molecular weight of 5,000 Da. In accordance with the invention, polyanionic compound is added at a time after innoculation, i.e. it is not present in the basal medium and not present at innoculation. Preferably, the polyanionic compound is added on day 1 of the culture or later. Innoculation takes place on day 0. In accordance with the invention, polyanionic compound may be added to the cell culture one time, two times, three times, or any number of times during the specified time period (eg. at a time after innoculation). One or more polyanionic compounds may be used in conjunction. That is, any given single addition of a polyanionic compound may include the addition of one or more other polyanionic compounds. Similarly, if there is more than one addition of a polyanionic compound, different polyanionic compounds may be added at the different additions. Additional compounds and substances, including polyanionic compounds, may be added to the culture before, with or after the addition of polyanionic compound - either during or not during the specified time period. In a preferred embodiment, there is a single, i.e. one time, addition of polyanionic compound. In a preferred embodiment, one polyanionic compound is added. In accordance with the invention, polyanionic compound may be added to the cell culture by any means. Means of adding polyanionic compound include, but are not limited to, dissolved in water, dissolved in culture medium, dissolved in feed medium, dissolved in a suitable medium, and in the form in which it is obtained. Preferably, polyanionic compound is added dissolved in water. In accordance with the invention, polyanionic compound is added to bring the concentration in the culture to an appropriate level. As non-limiting examples, polyanionic compound is added to a concentration of 1-1000 mg/L, 1-200 mg/L, 1-100 mg/L, or 25-75 mg/L. Preferably polyanionic compound is added to a concentration of 25-200 mg/L or 25-100 mg/L, more preferably about 50-100 mg/L or 50-100 mg/L, more preferably about 50 mg/L or about 100 mg/L, most preferably 50mg/L or '100 mg/L. • In accordance with the invention, the culture may be run for any length of time after addition of polyanionic compound. The culture run time may be determined by one of skill in the art, based on relevant factors such as the quantity and quality of recoverable protein, and the level of contaminating cellular species (e.g. proteins and DNA) in the supernatant resulting from cell lysis, which will complicate recovery of the protein of interest. In particular embodiments of the cell culturing process and method of increasing cell viability of the invention, polyanionic compound is added at a time after innoculation that is before the beginning of the initial death phase. Preferably, polyanionic compound is added at a time after innoculation that is during the initial growth phase. More preferably, polyanionic compound is added during the second half the initial growth phase. More preferably, polyanionic compound is added on or about the end of the initial growth phase. The initial growth phase refers to the growth phase that is observed in the absence of the specified addition of polyanionic compound. The initial death phase refers to the death phase that is observed in the absence of the specified addition of polyanionic compound. The initial growth phase may end when the initial death phase begins, or there may be a stationary phase of any length between the initial growth phase and the initial death phase. In a specific embodiment, in a cell culture in which the initial growth phase is from day 0 to day 6 and the initial death phase begins on day 7, in a particular embodiment polyanionic compound is added at a time after innoculation and before day 7, In a specific embodiment, polyanionic compound is added after innoculation and by day 6. In a specific embodiment, polyanionic compound is added between days 1 and 6. In another specific embodiment, polyanionic compound is added on day 4, 5 or 6. In other specific embodiments, polyanionic compound is added on about day 6, or on day 6. It has been found (see Examples 8 and 12), that when polyanionic compound is added at a time after innoculation and before the beginning of the initial .death phase, the growth phase may be .extended beyond the initial growth phase. A growth phase that is extended beyond the initial growth phase has a longer duration than the initial growth phase, i.e. longer than the growth phase observed in the absence of addition of polyanionic compound. Preferably, during the extended growth phase a higher peak viable cell density is achieved than the peak viable cell density achieved during the initial growth phase. Thus, in other embodiments, the invention is directed to (1) a cell culturing process, and (2) a process for extending the growth phase of a cell culture comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture at a time after innoculation that is before the beginning of the initial death phase; wherein the growth phase is extended. In more particular embodiments, the invention is directed a (1) a cell culturing process, and (2) process for extending the growth phase of a cell culture comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture at a time after innoculation that is during the initial growth phase; wherein the growth phase is extended In more particular embodiments the invention is directed to (1) a cell culturing process, and (2) a process for extending the growth phase of a cell culture comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture during the second half of the initial growth phase; wherein the growth phase is extended. In other particular embodiments the invention is directed to (1) a cell culturing process, and (2) a process for extending the growth phase of a cell culture comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture on or about the end of the initial growth phase; wherein the growth phase is extended. The growth phase may be extended for any period of time beyond the duration of the initial growth phase. By way of example only, the growth phase may be extended for 1-10 days, for 2-9 days, for 3-8 days, or for about 5 days. Preferably, the growth phase is extended for one or more days, more preferably for two or more days, more preferably for three or more days, most preferably for four or more days. For example, in Example 6 the growth phase is extended to - day 11 where the initial growth phase is until day 6. Thus, in Example 8 the growth phase has been extended iforrS days beyond the duration of the initial growth phase. The extended growth phase may be succeeded by a death phase or by a stationary phase. Likewise, the initial growth phase may be succeeded by a death phase or by a stationary phase. It has been found (see Examples 8 and 12), that when polyanionic compound is added at a time after innoculation and before the beginning of the initial death phase, the onset of the death phase may be delayed beyond the onset of the initial death phase, i.e. beyond the onset of the death phase observed in the absence of the addition of polyanionic compound. A death phase whose onset is delayed begins at a later time than the initial death phase. Thus, in other embodiments, the invention is directed to (1) a cell culturing process, and (2) a process for delaying the death phase of a cell culture comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture at a time after innoculation that is before the beginning of the initial death phase; wherein the onset of the death phase is delayed. In more particular embodiments, the invention is directed to (1) a cell culturing process, and (2) a process for delaying the death phase of a cell culture comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture at a time after innoculation that is during the initial growth phase; wherein the onset of the death phase is delayed. In more particular embodiments the invention is directed to (1) a cell culturing process, and (2) a process for delaying the death phase of a cell culture comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture during the second half of the initial growth phase; wherein the onset of the initial death phase is delayed. In other particular embodiments the invention is directed to a process for delaying the death phase of a cell culture comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture on or about the end of the initial growth phase; wherein the onset of the death phase is delayed. The onset of the death phase may be delayed for any period of time. By way of example only, the onset of the death phase may be delayed for 1-10 days, for 2-9 days, for 3-8 days, or for about 5 days. Preferably, the onset of the death - phase is delayed for one or more days,: more preferably for two or more days, more preferably for three or more days, most preferably for four or more days. In another particular embodiment of the cell culture process and method of increasing cell viability of the invention described above, polyanionic compound is added at a time after innoculation that is during the initial death phase. It has been found (see Examples 9 andIO) that when polyanionic compound is added during the initial death phase, the death phase may be arrested. To arrest the death phase means to stop, for some period of time, the decline in viable cell density observed in the absence of the addition of polyanionic compound. The arrest may occur immediately following the addition of the polyanionic compound, or may occur at a later time. When the death phase is arrested, what follows may be either a growth phase or a stationary phase. Eventually, of course, the culture will again enter a death phase. Thus, in other embodiments, the invention is directed to (1) a cell culturing process, and (2) a process for arresting.the death phase of a cell culture comprising: culturing host cells which express a protein of interest; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture at a time during the initial death phase; wherein the death phase is arrested.. The death phase may be arrested for any period of time before death phase is re-entered. By way of example only, the death phase may be arrested for 1-20 days, for 2-18 days, for 5-15 days, or for 8-13 days. Preferably, the death phase is arrested for one or more days, more preferably for n two or more days, more preferably for three or more days, most preferably for four or more days. Continuity of the arrest of death is not necessarily implied, i.e. there may be "local" decreases in the viable cell density profile between two stretches of constant or increasing viable cell density. Run times of cell culture processes, particularly non-continuous processes, are usually limited by the remaining viable cell density, which decreases during the death phase. Longer run times may allow higher product titers to be achieved. Delaying the death phase, including extending the growth phase, as much as possible, or arresting the death phases is therefore desirable. Product quality concerns also offer a motivation for delaying or arresting the death phase,- as cell death can release sialidases to the culture supernatant, which may reduce the sialic acid content of the protein expressed. Protein purification concerns offer yet another motivation for delaying or arresting the death phase. The presence of cell debris and the contents of dead cells in the culture can negatively impact on the ability to isolate and/or purify the protein product at the end of the culturing run. In particular embodiments, any of the herein-described cell culture processes involving two or more temperature shifts and any of the herein-described the cell culture processes involving delayed addition of polyanionic compound are used together in a cell culture. In particular embodiments, the invention is directed to (i) a cell culturing process, and (ii) a process for increasing cell viability, comprising: a) culturing host cells which produce a protein of interest at a temperature at or near 37°C under conditions and for a time period that allow for cell growth; b) lowering the temperature of the cell culture and culturing the cells at a second temperature at or near 34°C starting about day 5 to day 7; (c) again lowering the temperature of the cell culture and culturing the cells at a third temperature at or near 32°C starting about day 6 to day 14;and (d) adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture at a time after innoculation. In a particular embodiment, the present invention is directed to a cell culturing process comprising delayed addition of polyanionic compound as described above and further including feeding the cells with D-galactose. In another particular embodiment, the present invention is directed to a cell culturing process comprising delayed addition of polyanionic compound as described above, two or more temperature shifts as described above, and feeding the cells with D-galactose. Thus, in a particular embodiment, the invention is directed to a cell culture process for the production of protein, comprising: culturing host cells which produce a protein of interest in cell culture under conditions that allow for protein production; feeding the cells with D-galactose; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture at a time after innoculation. In another particular embodiment, the invention is directed to a cell culture process for the production of protein, comprising: culturing host cells which produce a protein of interest in cell culture under conditions that allow for protein production; culturing the host cells at a temperature at or near 37°C under conditions and for a time period that allow for cell growth; culturing the cells at a second temperature at or near 34°C; culturing the cells at a third temperature at or near 32°C; feeding the cells with D-galactose; and adding polyanionic compound to the cell culture at a time after innoculation. Techniques and procedures relating to alvcoprotein purification and analysis In the culturing methods encompassed by the present invention, the protein produced by the cells is typically collected, recovered, isolated, and/or purified, or substantially purified, as desired, at the end of the total cell culture period using isolation and purification methods as known and practiced in the art. Preferably, glycoprotein that is secreted from the cultured cells is isolated from the culture medium or supernatant; however, protein can also be recovered from the host cells, e.g., cell lysates, using methods that are known and practiced in the art and as further described below. The complex carbohydrate comprising the glycoprotein produced by the processes of this invention can be routinely analyzed, if desired, by conventional techniques of carbohydrate analysis. For example, techniques such as lectin blotting, well-known in the art, reveal proportions of terminal mannose or other sugars such as galactose. Termination of mono-, bi-, tri-, or tetra-antennary oligosaccharide by sialic acids can be confirmed by release of sugars from the protein using anhydrous hydrazine or enzymatic methods and fractionation of oligosaccharides by ion-exchange chromatography, size exclusion chromatography, or other methods that are well-known in the art. The pi of the glycoprotein can also be measured, before and after treatment with neuraminidase, to remove sialic acids. An increase in pi following neuraminidase treatment indicates the presence of sialic acids on the glycoprotein. Carbohydrate structures typically occur on the expressed protein as N-linked or O-linked carbohydrates. The N-linked and O-linked carbohydrates differ primarily in their core structures. N-linked glycosylation refers to the attachment of the carbohydrate moiety via GlcNAc to an asparagine residue in the peptide chain. The N-linked carbohydrates all contain a common Man1-6(Man1-3)Manp1-4GlcNAcp1-4GlcNAcj3-R core structure, where R in this core structure represents an asparagine residue. The peptide sequence of the protein produced will contain an asparagine-X-serine, asparagine-X-threonine, and asparagine-X-cysteine, wherein X is any amino acid except proline. In contrast, O-linked carbohydrates are characterized by a common core structure, which is GalNAc attached to the hydroxyl group of a threonine or serine. Of the N-linked and O-linked carbohydrates, the most important are the complex N- and O-linked carbohydrates. Such complex carbohydrates contain several antennary structures. The mono-, bi-, tri,-, and tetra-, outer structures are important for the addition of terminal sialic acids. Such outer chain structures provide for additional sites for the specific sugars and linkages that comprise the carbohydrates of the protein products. The resulting carbohydrates can be analyzed by any method known in the art. Several methods are known in the art for glycosylation analysis and are useful in the context of the present invention. These methods provide information regarding the identity and the composition of the oligosaccharide attached to the produced peptide. Methods for carbohydrate analysis useful in connection with the present invention include, but are not limited to, lectin chromatography; HPAEC-PAD, which uses high pH anion exchange chromatography to separate oligosaccharides based on charge; NMR; Mass spectrometry; HPLC; GPC; monosaccharide compositional analysis; and sequential enzymatic digestion. In addition, methods for releasing oligosaccharides are known and practiced in the art. These methods include 1) enzymatic methods, which are commonly performed using peptide-N-glycosidase F/endo-p-galactosidase; 2) p elimination methods, using a harsh alkaline environment to release mainly 0-linked structures; and 3) chemical methods using anhydrous hydrazine to release both N-and O-linked oligosaccharides. Analysis can be performed using the following steps: 1. Dialysis of the sample against deionized water to remove all buffer salts, followed by lyophilization. 2. Release of intact oligosaccharide chains with anhydrous hydrazine. 3. Treatment of the intact oligosaccharide chains with anhydrous methanolic HCI to liberate individual monosaccharides as O-methyl derivatives. 4. N-acetylation of any primary amino groups. 5. Derivatization to yield per-Otrimethylsilyl methyl glycosides. 6. Separation of these derivatives by capillary gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) on a CR-:SIL8 column. .7. Identification of individual glycoside derivatives by retention time from the GLC and mass spectroscopy, compared to known standards. 8. Quantification of individual derivatives by FID with an internal standard (13-O-methyl-D-glucose). Neutral and amino sugars can be determined by high performance anion-exchange chromatography combined with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAE-PAD Carbohydrate System; Dionex Corp.). For instance, sugars can be released by hydrolysis in 20% (v/v) trifluoroacetic acid at 100°C for 6 hours. Hydrolysates are then dried by lyophilization or with a Speed-Vac (Savant Instruments). Residues are then dissolved in 1% sodium acetate trihydrate solution and analyzed on an HPLC-AS6 column (as described by Anumula et al., 1991, Anal. Biochem., 195:269-280). Alternatively, immunoblot carbohydrate analysis can be performed. In this procedure protein-bound carbohydrates are detected using a commercial glycan detection system (Boehringer), which is based on the oxidative immunoblot procedure described by Haselbeck et al. (1993, Glycoconjugate J., 7:63). The staining protocol recommended by the manufacturer is followed except that the protein is transferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride membrane instead of a nitrocellulose membrane and the blocking buffers contain 5% bovine serum albumin in 10 mM Tris buffer, pH 7.4, with 0.9% sodium chloride. Detection is carried out with anti-digoxigenin antibodies linked with an alkaline phosphate conjugate (Boehringer), 1:1000 dilution in Tris buffered saline using the phosphatase substrates, 4-nitroblue tetrazolium chloride, 0.03% (w/v) and 5-bromo-4 chIoro-3-indoyl-phosphate 0.03% (w/v) in 100 mM Tris buffer, pH 9.5, containing 100 mM sodium chloride and 50 mM magnesium chloride. The protein bands containing carbohydrate are usually visualized in about 10 to 15 minutes. Carbohydrate associated with protein can also be analyzed by digestion with peptide-N-glycosidase F. According to this procedure the residue is suspended in 14 (iL of a buffer containing 0.18% SDS, 18 mM beta-mercaptoethanol, 90 mM phosphate, 3.6 mM EDTA, at pH 8.6, and heated at 100°C for 3 minutes. After codling to room temperature, the sample is divided into two equal parts. One part, which is not treated further/serves as a control. The other part is adjusted to about 1% NP-40 detergent folloVvedby the addition of 0.2 units of peptide-N-glycosidase F (Boehringer). Both samples are warmed at 37°C for 2 hours and then analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In addition, the sialic acid content of the glycoprotein product is assessed by conventional methods. For example, sialic acid can be separately determined by a direct colorimetric method (Yao et al., 1989, Anal. Biochem., 179:332-335), preferably using triplicate samples. Another method of sialic acid determination involves the use of thiobarbaturic acid (TBA), as described by Warren et al., 1959, J. Biol. Chem., 234:1971-1975. Yet another method involves high performance chromatography, such as described by H.K. Ogawa et al., 1993, J. Chromatography, 612:145-149. Illustratively, for glycoprotein recovery, isolation and/or purification, the cell culture medium or cell lysate is centrifuged to remove particulate cells and cell debris. The desired polypeptide product is isolated or purified away from contaminating soluble proteins and polypeptides by suitable purification techniques. The following procedures provide exemplary, yet nonlimiting purification methods for proteins: separation or fractionation on immunoaffinity or ion-exchange columns; ethanol precipitation; reverse phase HPLC; chromatography on a resin, such as silica, or cation exchange resin, e.g., DEAE; chromatofocusing; SDS-PAGE; ammonium sulfate precipitation; gel filtration using, e.g., Sephadex G-75, Sepharose; protein A sepharose chromatography for removal of immunoglobulin contaminants; and the like. Other additives, such as protease inhibitors (e.g., PMSF or proteinase K) can be used to inhibit proteolytic degradation during purification. It will be understood by the skilled practitioner that purification methods for a given polypeptide of interest may require modifications which allow for changes in the polypeptide expressed recombinantly in cell culture. Those purification procedures that can select for carbohydrates and enrich for sialic acid are particularly preferred, e.g., ion-exchange soft gel chromatography, or HPLC using cation- or anion-exchange resins, in which the more acidic fraction(s) is/are collected. Cells, proteins and cell culture •In the cell culture processes or methods of this invention, the cells can be maintained in a variety of cell culture media, i.e., basal.culture, media, as conventionally known in the art. For example, the methods are applicable for use with large volumes of cells maintained in cell culture medium, which can be supplemented with nutrients and the like. Typically, "cell culturing medium" (also called "culture medium") is a term that is understood by the practitioner in the art and is known to refer to a nutrient solution in which cells, preferably animal or mammalian cells, are grown and which generally provides at least one or more components from the following: an energy source (usually in the form of a carbohydrate such as glucose); all essential amino acids, and generally the twenty basic amino acids, plus cysteine; vitamins and/or other organic compounds typically required at low concentrations; lipids or free fatty acids, e.g., linoleic acid; and trace elements, e.g., inorganic compounds or naturally occurring elements that are typically required at very low concentrations, usually in the micromolar range. Cell culture medium can also be supplemented to contain a variety of optional components, such as hormones and other growth factors, e.g., insulin, transferrin, epidermal growth factor, serum, and the like; salts, e.g., calcium, magnesium and phosphate, and buffers, e.g., HEPES; nucleosides and bases, e.g., adenosine, thymidine, hypoxanthine; and protein and tissue hydrolysates, e.g., hydrolyzed animal protein (peptone or peptone mixtures, which can be obtained from animal byproducts, purified gelatin or plant material); antibiotics, e.g., gentamycin; and cell protective agents, e.g., a Pluronic polyol (Pluronic F68). Preferred is a cell nutrition medium that is serum-free and free of products or ingredients of animal origin. As is appreciated by the practitioner, animal or mammalian cells are cultured in a medium suitable for the particular cells being cultured and which can be determined by the person of skill in the art without undue experimentation. Commercially available media can be utilized and include, for example, Minimal Essential Medium (MEM, Sigma, St. Louis, MO); Ham's F10 Medium (Sigma); Dulbecco's Modified Eagles Medium (DMEM, Sigma); RPMI-1640 Medium (Sigma); HyClone cell culture medium (HyClone, Logan, UT); and chemically-defined (CD) media, which are formulated for particular cell types, e.g., CD-CHO Medium (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). To the foregoing exemplary media can be added the above-described supplementary components or ingredients, including optional components, in appropriate concentrations or amounts, as necessary or desired, and as would be known and practiced by those having in the art using routine skill. In addition, cell culture conditions suitable for the methods of the present invention are those that are typically employed and known for batch, fed-batch, or continuous culturing of cells, with attention paid to pH, e.g., about 6.5 to about 7.5; dissolved oxygen (Oa), e.g., between about 5-90% of air saturation and carbon dioxide (CO2), agitation and humidity, in addition to temperature. As an illustrative, yet nonlimiting, example, a suitable cell culturing medium for the fed-batch processes of the present invention comprises a modified CD-CHO Medium (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) and a feeding medium, preferably containing D-galactose. (e.g., Examples 1 and 3). Animal cells, mammalian cells, cultured cells, animal or mammalian host cells, host cells, recombinant cells, recombinant host cells, and the like, are all terms for the cells that can be cultured according to the processes of this invention. Such cells are typically cell lines obtained or derived from mammals and are able to grow and survive when placed in either monolayer culture or suspension culture in medium containing appropriate nutrients and/or growth factors. Growth factors and nutrients that are necessary for the growth and maintenance of particular cell cultures are able to be readily determined empirically by those having skill in the pertinent art, such as is described, for example, by Barnes and Sato, (1980, Cell, 22:649); in Mammalian Cell Culture, Ed. J.P. Mather, Plenum Press, NY, 1984; and in U.S. Patent No. 5,721,121. Numerous types of cells can be cultured according to the methods of the present invention. The cells are typically animal or mammalian cells that can express and secrete, or that can be molecularly engineered to express and secrete, large quantities of a particular protein, more particularly, a glycoprotein of interest, into the culture medium. It will be understood that the glycoprotein produced by a host cell can be endogenous or homologous to the host cell. Alternatively, and preferably, the glycoprotein is heterologous, i.e., foreign, to the host cell, for example, a human glycoprotein produced and secreted by a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) host cell. Also, preferably, mammalian glycoproteins, i.e., those originally obtained or derived from a mammalian organism, are attained by the methods the present invention and are preferably secreted by the cells into the culture medium. Examples of mammalian glycoproteins that can be advantageously produced by the methods of this invention include, without limitation, cytokines, cytokine receptors, growth factors (e.g., EGF, HER-2, FGF-oc, FGF-fJ, TGF-a, TGF-|3, PDGF. IGF-1, IGF-2, NGF, NGF-0); growth factor receptors, including fusion or chimeric proteins. Other nonlimiting examples include growth hormones (e.g., human growth hormone, bovine growth hormone); insulin (e.g., insulin A chain and insulin B chain), proinsulin; erythropoietin (EPO); colony stimulating factors (e.g., G-CSF, GM-CSF, M-CSF); interleukins (e.g., IL-1 through IL-12); vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor (VEGF-R); interferons (e.g., IFN-oc, p, or y); tumor necrosis factor (e.g., TNF-a and TNF-J3) and their receptors, TNFR-1 and TNFR-2; thrombopoietin (TPO); thrombin; brain natriuretic peptide (BNP); clotting factors (e.g., Factor VIII, Factor IX, von Willebrands factor, and the like); anti-clotting factors; tissue plasminogen activator (TPA), e.g., urokinase or human urine or tissue type TPA; follicle stimulating hormone (FbH); luteinizing hormone (LH); calcitonin; CD proteins (e.g., CDS, CD4, CDS, CD28, CD19, etc.); CTLA proteins (e.g., CTLA4); T-cell and B-cell receptor proteins; bone morphogenic proteins (BNPs, e.g., BMP-1, BMP-2, BMP-3, etc.); neurotrophic factors, e.g., bone derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF); neurotrophins, e.g., 3-6; renin; rheumatoid factor; RANTES; albumin; relaxin; macrophage inhibitory protein (e.g., MIP-1, MIP-2); viral proteins or antigens; surface membrane proteins; ion channel proteins; enzymes; regulatory proteins; antibodies; immunomodulatory proteins, (e.g., HLA, MHC, the B7 family); homing receptors; transport proteins; superoxide dismutase (SOD); G-protein coupled receptor proteins (GPCRs); neuromodulatory proteins; Alzheimer's Disease associated proteins and peptides, (e.g., A-beta), and others as known in the art. Fusion proteins and polypeptides, chimeric proteins and polypeptides, as well as fragments or portions, or mutants, variants, or analogs of any of the aforementioned proteins and polypeptides are - also included among the suitable proteins, polypeptides and peptides that can be produced, by the methods of the preseht-rinventron. Nonlimiting examples of animal or mammalian host cells suitable for harboring, expressing, and producing proteins for subsequent isolation and/or purification include Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO), such as CHO-K1 (ATCC CCL-61), DG44 (Chasin et al., 1986, Som. Cell Molec. Genet, 12:555-556; Kolkekar et al., 1997, Biochemistry, 36:10901-10909; and WO 01/92337 A2), dihydrofolate reductase negative CHO cells (CHO/-DHFR, Urlaub and.Chasin, 1980, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 77:4216), and dp12.CHO cells (U.S. Patent No. 5,721,121); monkey kidney CV1 cells transformed by SV40 (COS cells, COS-7, ATCC CRL-1651); human embryonic kidney cells (e.g., 293 cells, or 293 cells subcloned for growth in suspension culture, Graham et al., 1977, J. Gen. Virol., 36:59); baby hamster kidney cells (BHK, ATCC CCL-10); monkey kidney cells (CV1, ATCC CCL-70); African green monkey kidney cells (VERO-76, ATCC CRL-1587; VERO, ATCC CCL-81); mouse sertoli cells (TM4, Mather, 1980, BioL Reprod, 23:243-251); human cervical carcinoma cells (HELA, ATCC CCL-2); canine kidney cells (MDCK, ATCC CCL-34); human lung cells (W138, ATCC CCL-75); human hepatoma cells (HEP-G2, HB 8065); mouse mammary tumor cells (MMT 060562, ATCC CCL-51); buffalo rat liver cells (BRL 3A, ATCC CRL-1442); TRI cells (Mather, 1982, Annals NYAcad. ScL, 383:44-68); MCR 5 cells; FS4 cells. Preferred are CHO cells, particularly, CHO/-DHFR cells. The cells suitable for culturing in the methods and processes of the present invention can contain introduced, e.g., via transformation, transfection, infection, or injection, expression vectors (constructs), such as plasmids and the like, that harbor coding sequences, or portions thereof, encoding the proteins for expression and production in the culturing process. Such expression vectors contain the necessary elements for the transcription and translation of the inserted coding sequence. Methods which are well known to and practiced by those skilled in the art can be used to construct expression vectors containing sequences encoding the produced proteins and polypeptides, as well as the appropriate transcriptional and translational control elements. These methods include in vitro recombinant DMA techniques, synthetic techniques, and in vivo genetic recombination. Such techniques are described in J. Sambrook et al., 1989, Molecular Cloning, A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Press, Plainview, N.Y. and in R.M. Ausubel et al., 1989, Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, John Wiley & Sons, New York, N.Y. Control elements, or regulatory sequences, are those non-translated regions of the vector, e.g., enhancers, promoters, 5' and 3' untranslated regions, that interact with host cellular proteins to carry out transcription and translation. Such elements can vary in their strength and specificity. Depending on the vector system and host cell utilized, any number of suitable transcription and translation elements, including constitutive and inducible promoters, can be used. In mammalian cell systems, promoters from mammalian genes or from mammalian viruses are preferred. The constructs for use in protein expression systems are designed to contain at least one promoter, an enhancer sequence (optional, for mammalian expression systems), and other sequences as necessary or required for proper transcription and regulation of gene expression (e.g., transcriptional initiation and termination sequences, origin of replication sites, polyadenylation sequences, e.g., the Bovine Growth Hormone (BGH) poly A sequence). As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the selection of the appropriate vector, e.g., plasmid, components for proper transcription, expression, and isolation of proteins produced in eukaryotic (e.g., mammalian) expression systems is known and routinely determined and practiced by those having skill in the art. The expression of proteins by the cells cultured in accordance with the methods of this invention can placed under the control of promoters such as viral promoters, e.g., cytomegalovirus (CMV), Rous sarcoma virus (RSV), phosphoglycerol kinase (PGK), thymidine kinase (TK), or the a-actin promoter. Further, regulated promoters confer inducibility by particular compounds or molecules, e.g., the glucocorticoid response element (GRE) of mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) is induced by glucocorticoids (V. Chandler et al., 1983, Cell, 33:489-499). Also, tissue-specific promoters or regulatory elements can be used (G. Swift et al., 1984, Cell, 38:639-646), if necessary or desired. Expression constructs can be introduced into cells by a variety of gene transfer methods known to those skilled in the art, for example, conventional gene transfection methods, such as calcium phosphate co-precipitation, liposoma transfection, microinjection, electroporation, and infection or viral transduction. The choice of the method is within the competence of the skilled practitioner in the art. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that one or more constructs carrying DNA sequences for expression in cells can be transfected into the cells such that expression products are subsequently produced in and/or obtained from the cells. In a particular aspect, mammalian expression systems containing appropriate control and regulatory sequences are preferred for use in protein expressing mammalian cells of the present invention. Commonly used eukaryotic control sequences for generating mammalian expression vectors include promoters and control sequences compatible with mammalian cells such as, for example, the cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter (CDM8 vector) and avian sarcoma virus (ASV) rcLN vector. Other commonly used promoters include the early and late promoters from Simian Virus 40 (SV40) (Fiers et al., 1973, Nature, 273:113), or other viral promoters such as those derived from polyoma, Adenovirus 2, and bovine papilloma virus. An inducible promoter, such as hMTII (Karin et al., 1982, Nature, 299:797-802) can also be used. Examples of expression vectors suitable for eukaryotic host cells include, but are not limited to, vectors for mammalian host cells (e.g., BPV-1, pHyg, pRSV, pSV2, pTK2 (Maniatis); pIRES (Clontech); pRc/CMV2, pRc/RSV, pSFV1 (Life Technologies); pVPakc Vectors, pCMV vectors, pSG5 vectors (Stratagene), retroviral vectors (e.g., pFB vectors (Stratagene)), pcDNA-3 (Invitrogen), adenoviral vectors; Adeno-associated virus vectors, baculovirus vectors, yeast vectors (e.g., pESC vectors (Stratagene)), or modified forms of any of the foregoing. Vectors can also contain enhancer sequences upstream or downstream of promoter region sequences for optimizing gene expression. A selectable marker can also be used in a recombinant vector (e.g., a plasmid) to confer resistance to the cells harboring (preferably, having stably integrated) the vector to allow their selection in appropriate selection medium. A number of selection systems can be used, including but not limited to, the Herpes - Simplex Virus thymidine kinase (HSVTK), (Wigler et al., 1977, Celt, 11:223), hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT), (Szybalska and Szybalski, 1992, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 48:202), and adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (Lowy et al., 1980, Cell, 22:817) genes, which can be employed in tk-, hgprt-, or aprt- cells (APRT), respectively. Anti-metabolite resistance can also be used as the basis of selection for the following nonlimiting examples of marker genes: dhfr, which confers resistance to methotrexate (Wigler et al., 1980, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 77:357; and O'Hare et al., 1981, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 78:1527); gpt, which confers resistance to mycophenolic acid (Mulligan and Berg, 1981, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 78:2072); neo, which confers resistance to the aminoglycoside G418 (Clinical Pharmacy, 12:488-505; Wu and Wu, 1991, Biotherapy, 3:87-95; Tolstoshev, 1993, Ann. Rev. Pharmacol. Toxicol., 32:573-596; Mulligan, 1993, Science, 260:926-932; Anderson, 1993, Ann. Rev. Biochem., 62:191-21; May, 1993, TIB TECH, 11 (5):155-215; and hygro, which confers resistance to hygromycin (Santerre et al., 1984, Gene, 30:147). Methods commonly known in the art of recombinant DNA technology can be routinely applied to select the desired recombinant cell clones, and such methods are described, for example, in Ausubel et al. (eds.), Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, John Wiley & Sons, NY (1993); Kriegler, 1990, Gene Transfer and Expression, A Laboratory Manual, Stockton Press, NY; in Chapters 12 and 13, Dracopoli et al. (eds), Current Protocols in Human Genetics, John Wiley & Sons, NY (1994); Colberre-Garapin et al., 1981. J. Mol. Biol., 150:1, which are incorporated by reference herein in their entireties. In addition, the expression levels of an expressed protein molecule can be increased by vector amplification (for a review, see Bebbington and Hentschel, "The use of vectors based on gene amplification for the expression of cloned genes in mammalian cells in DNA cloning", Vol. 3, Academic Press, New York, 1987). When a marker in the vector system expressing a protein is amplifiable, an increase in the level of inhibitor present in the host cell culture will increase the number of copies of the marker gene. Since the amplified region is associated with the protein-encoding gene, production of the protein will concomitantly increase (Grouse et al., 1983, Mol. Cell. Biol., 3:257). Vectors which harbor glutamine synthase (GS) or dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) encoding nucleic acid as the selectable markers can be amplified in the presence of the drugs methionine sulphoximine or methotrexate, respectively. An advantage of glutamine synthase based vectors is the availability of cell lines (e.g., the murine myeloma cell line, NSO) which are glutamine synthase negative. Glutamine synthase expression systems can also function in glutamine synthase expressing cells (e.g., CHO cells) by providing additional inhibitor to prevent the functioning of the endogenous gene. Vectors that express DHFR as the selectable marker include, but are not limited to, the pSV2-dhfr plasmid (Subramani et al., Mol. Cell. Biol. 1:854 (1981). Vectors that express glutamine synthase as the selectable marker include, but are not limited to, the pEE6 expression vector described in Stephens and Cockett, 1989, Nucl. Acids. Res., 17:7110. A glutamine synthase expression system and components thereof are detailed in PCT publications: W087/04462; W086/05807; W089/01036; W089/10404; and W091/06657 which are incorporated by reference herein in their entireties. In addition, glutamine synthase expression vectors that can be used in accordance with the present invention are commercially available from suppliers, including, for example, Lonza Biologies, Inc. (Portsmouth, NH). In a particular embodiment, a nucleic acid sequence encoding a soluble CTLA4 molecule or a soluble CTLA4 mutant molecule can be inserted into a vector designed for expressing foreign sequences in a eukaryotic host. The regulatory elements of the vector can vary according to the particular eukaryotic host. Vectors which express the soluble CTLA4 or soluble CTLA4 mutant in eukaryotic host cells can include enhancer sequences for optimizing protein expression. Types of cell cultures For the purposes of understanding, yet without limitation, it will be appreciated by the skilled practitioner that cell cultures and culturing runs for protein production can include three general types; namely, continuous culture, batch culture and fed-batch culture. In a continuous culture, for example, fresh culture medium supplement (i.e., feeding medium) is provided to the cells during the culturing period, while old culture medium is removelf daily and the product is harvested, for example, daily or continuously. In continuous culture, feeding medium can be added daily and can be added continuously, i.e., as a drip or infusion. For continuous culturing, the cells can remain in culture as long as is desired, so long as the cells remain alive and the environmental and culturing conditions are maintained. In batch culture, cells are initially cultured in medium and this medium is neither removed, replaced, nor supplemented, i.e., the cells are not "fed" with new medium, during or before the end of the culturing run. The desired product is harvested at the end of the culturing run. For fed-batch cultures, the culturing run time is increased by supplementing the culture medium one or more times daily (or continuously) with fresh medium during the run, i.e., the cells are "fed1 with new medium ("feeding medium") during the culturing period. Fed-batch cultures can include the various feeding regimens and times as described above, for example, daily, every other day, every two days, etc., more than once per day, or less than once per day, and so on. Further, fed-batch cultures can be fed continuously with feeding medium. The desired product is then harvested at the end of the culturing/production run. The present invention preferably embraces fed-batch cell cultures, with daily feeding with D-galactose-containing feeding medium, in which the two or more temperature shifts during the culture period yield increased quality protein production and can extend the protein production phase beyond that which occurs when no temperature shift is used, or when only one temperature shift is used. Multiple temperature shift culturing processes are described in commonly-assigned patent applications U.S. Serial No. 60/436,101, filed December 23, 2002, and U.S. Serial No. 107 , filed concomitantly herewith, the contents of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety. In the aspects of the invention involving two or more temperature shifts two or more temperature shifts comprising the cell culture processes of this invention result in more viable cells surviving in culture until the end of the process or production run. The greater the number of cells that survive, the greater the amount of protein product that is produced in a non-growth associated process of .protein production, such as some of those exemplified herein:, Thus, a greater , accumulated amount of a desired product results at the end of the .process. The rate of protein or glycoprotein production by individual cells in the culture (i.e., cell specific productivity) is not affected or increased by the temperature shift culturing processes of the invention, (e.g., Example 6). In contrast, in growth-associated culture processes, protein is primarily produced by growing cells during the growth phase of the culture. According to the present invention, cell culture can be carried out, and glycoproteins can be produced by cells, under conditions for the large or small scale production of proteins, using culture vessels and/or culture apparatuses that are conventionally employed for animal or mammalian cell culture. As is appreciated by those having skill in the art, tissue culture dishes, T-flasks and spinner flasks are typically used on a laboratory scale. For culturing on a larger scale (e.g., 500 L, 5000 L, and the like), procedures including, but not limited to, a fluidized bed bioreactor, a hollow fiber bioreactor, roller bottle culture, or stirred tank bioreactor systems can be used. Microcarriers may or may not be used with the roller bottle or stirred tank bioreactor systems. The systems can be operated in a batch, continuous, or fed-batch mode. In addition, the culture apparatus or system may or may not be equipped with a cell separator using filters, gravity, centrifugal force, and the like. Phases of cell culture and associated parameters The term "innoculation" refers to the addition of cells to starting medium to begin the culture. The growth phase of a culture is the phase during which the viable cell density at any time point is higher than at any previous time point. The stationary phase of a culture is the phase during which the viable cell density is approximately constant (i.e. within measuring error) over a time period of any length. The death phase of a culture is the phase that comes after the growth phase or after the growth phase and the stationary phase, and during which the viable cell density at any time point is lower than at any previous time point during that phase. ~ In a growth-associated culture process, such as cases where a polyanionic compound causes an extended growth phase, the production phase may start during the extended growth phase. In a non-growth associated culture process, the production phase of cell culture may be the stationary phase. Preferably, the culture medium is supplemented ("fed") during the production phase to support continued protein production, particularly in an extended production phase, and to attain ample quantities of high quality glycoprotein product (as exemplified and/or determined by a high level of end sialic acid content upon protein recovery). Feeding can occur on a daily basis, or according to other schedules to support cell viability and protein production. During an extended production phase at temperatures which are shifted to be successively lower than the temperature(s) at the growth and standard (initial) production phases, the cells are fed and remain viable. This results in the production of desired protein product for an extended or longer total period of time than occurs at the initial culturing temperature, or when the temperature is shifted from the initial culturing temperature only one time. The culturing process according to the present invention may result in more viable cell survival until the end of the culturing period. Accordingly, in some embodiments, the more cells that survive, the more cells that are producing the desired product. This, in turn, results in a greater accumulated amount of the product at the end of the culturing process, with the rate of protein production by individual cells, i.e., cell specific productivity, remaining the same. (See, e.g., Example 4).Cell specific productivity or cell specific rate, as known in the art, typically refers to the specific expression rate of product produced per cell, or per measure of cell mass or volume. Cell specific productivity is measured in grams of protein produced per cell per day, fo example, and can be measured according to an integral method involving the following formulae: dP/dt = qp X, or P = qPJotXdt where qp is the cell specific productivity constant; X is the number of cells or cell volume, or cell mass equivalents; and dP/dt is the rate of protein productioi Thus, qp can be obtained from a plot of product concentration versus time Integra of viable cells (lo Xdt "viable cell days"). According to this formula, when the amount of glycoprotein product produced is plotted against the viable cell days, the slope is equivalent to the cell specific rate. Viable cells can be determined by several measures, for example, biomass, 02 uptake rate, lactase dehydrogenase (LDH), packed cell volume or turbidity, (e.g., U.S. Patent No. 5,705,364 to T. Etcheverry et al.) Production of soluble CTLA4 molecules and soluble CTLA4 mutant molecules by the culturina methods of the present invention In other embodiments encompassed by the present invention, the cell culture methods are utilized to produce a soluble CTLA4 molecule or a soluble CTLA4 mutant molecule, as described below. A soluble CTLA4 molecule is preferably a CTLA4 fusion protein, preferably a CTLA4lg. More preferred is CTLA4lg that comprises amino acids -1 to 357 or +1 to 357 as shown in FIG. 8. Most preferred is CTLA4lg that consists of amino acids -1 to 357 or +1 to 357 as shown in FIG. 8. A soluble CTLA4 mutant molecule is preferably L104EA29Ylg that comprises amino acids -1 to 357 or +1 to 357 as shown in FIG. 9, most preferably that consists of amino acids -1 to 357 or +1 to 357 as shown in FIG. 9. The two- and three-step temperature shift cell culture methods involving extended production phases for protein product and feeding with medium containing D-galactose are especially suitable for generating high quality and large amounts of soluble CTLA4 molecules and soluble CTLA4 mutant molecules, by their host cells in culture. In a preferred embodiment, CTLA4lg is produced by recombinantly engineered host cells. The CTLA4lg fusion protein can be recombinantly produced by CHO cells transfected with a vector containing the DMA sequence encoding CTLA4lg. (See, U.S. Patent No. 5,844,095 to P.S. Linsley et al., and the Examples herein). The CTLA4lg fusion protein is produced in high quantity and is appropriately sialylated when cultured in accordance with the multi-step temperature shift processes of this invention: The invention affords the production of high levels of recoverable protein product; e;.g.,'sialylated CTLA4lg protein product. In another preferred embodiment, the soluble CTLA4 mutant molecule L104EA29Ylg that comprises amino acids -1 to 357 or +1 to 357 as shown in FIG. 9 is produced by the cell culture methods of the present invention. A ligand for CTLA4 is a B7 molecule. As used herein, "ligand" refers to a molecule that specifically recognizes and binds another molecule. The interaction of a molecule and its ligand can be regulated by the products of the culturing processes of this invention. For example, CTLA4 interaction with its ligand B7 can be blocked by the administration of CTLA4lg molecules. As other examples, the interaction of Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) with its ligand, TNF receptor (TNFRj, can be blocked by administration of etanercept or other TNF/TNFR blocking molecules. Wild type CTLA4 or "non-mutated CTLA4" has the amino acid sequence of naturally occurring, full length CTLA4 as.shown in FIG. 10 (and also as described in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,434,131, 5,844,095, and 5,851,795, incorporated herein bj reference in their entirety), or any portion thereof that recognizes and binds a B7 molecule, or interferes with a B7 molecule, so that binding to CD28 and/or CTLAI- (e.g., endogenous CD28 and/or CTLA4) is blocked. Wild type CTLA4 comprises particular portions, including, for example, the extracellular domain of wild type CTLA4 beginning with methionine at position +1 and ending at aspartic acid at position +124, or the extracellular domain of wild type CTLA4 beginning with alanine at position -1 and ending at aspartic acid at position +124 as shown in FIG. 10. The naturally occurring wild type CTLA4 is a cell surface protein having an N-terminal extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain, and a C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. The extracellular domain binds to a target molecule, such as a B7 molecule. In a cell, the naturally occurring, wild type CTLA4 protein is translated as an immature polypeptide, which includes a signal peptide at the amino, or N-terminal, end. The immature polypeptide undergoes post-translational processing, which includes cleavage and removal of the signal peptide to generate a CTLA4 cleavage product having a newly generated N-temninal end that differs from the N-terminal end in the immature form. One skilled in the art will appreciate that additional post-translati.Qnal processing may occur, which removes one or more of the amino acids from the newly generated N-terminal end of the CTLA4 cleavage product. The mature CTLA4 protein may start at methionine at position +1 or alanine at position -1. The mature form of the CTLA4 molecule includes the extracellular domain or any portion thereof, which binds to B7. A CTLA4 mutant molecule, as used herein, refers to a molecule comprising wild type CTLA4 as shown in FIG. 10, or any portion or derivative thereof, that has a mutation, or multiple mutations, in the wild type CTLA4 sequence, preferably in the extracellular domain of wild type CTLA4, and binds B7. A CTLA4 mutant molecule has a sequence that it is similar, but not identical, to the sequence of wild type CTLA4 molecule, but still binds B7. The mutations can include one or more amino acid residues substituted with an amino acid having conservative (e.g., a ieucine substituted for an isoleucine) or non-conservative (e.g., a glycine substituted with a tryptophan) structure or chemical properties, amino acid deletions, additions, f rameshifts, or truncations. CTLA4 mutant molecules can include a non-CTLA4 molecule therein or attached thereto, i.e., CTLA4 mutant fusion proteins. The mutant molecules can be soluble (i.e., circulating) or they can be bound to a cell surface (membrane-bound). CTLA4 mutant molecules include L104EA29Ylg and those described in U.S. Patent Application Serial Numbers 09/865,321, 60/214,065 and 60/287,576; in WO 01/92337 A2; in U.S. Patent Numbers 6,090,914, 5,844,095 and 5,773,253; and as described in R.J. Peach et al., 1994, J Exp Med, 180:2049-2058. CTLA4 mutant molecules can be synthetically or recombinantly produced. CTLA4lg is a soluble fusion protein comprising an extracellular domain of wild type CTLA4, or a portion thereof that binds B7, joined to an immunoglobulin (Ig) molecule, or a portion thereof. The extracellular domain of CTLA4 or portion thereof is joined to an Ig moiety comprising all or a portion of an immunoglobulin molecule, preferably all or a portion of an immunoglobulin constant region such as all or a portion of IgCyl (IgCgammal), lgOy2 (lgCgamma2), IgGyS (IgCgammaS), lgCy4 (lgCgamma4), lgC|i (IgCmu), IgCal (IgCalphal), lgCo2 (lgCalpha2), lgC5 (IgCdelta)'or IgCe (IgCepsilon), rendering the fusion molecule soluble. Thelg moiety can include the hinge, CH2 and CHS domains, or the CH1, hinge, CH2 and CHS domains, of the aforementioned constant regions or other constant regions. Preferably, the Ig moiety is human or monkey and comprises the hinge, CH2 and CHS domains. Most preferably the Ig moiety comprises the hinge, CH2 and CHS domains of human IgCyl, or consists of the hinge, CH2 and CH3 domains of human IgCyl. In an Ig moiety of CTLA4lg, the Ig constant region or portion thereof can be mutated, thus resulting in a reduction of its effector functions (see, e.g., U.S. Patent Nos. 5,637,481, 5,844,095 and 5,434,131). As used herein, the terms Ig moiety, Ig constant region, Ig C(constant) domain, IgCyl (IgCgammal), lgCy2 (lgCgamma2), IgCyS (IgCgammaS), lgCy4 (lgCgamma4), Igfyi (IgCmu), IgCal (IgCalphal), lgCo2 (lgCalpha2), lgC6 (IgCdelta) or IgCe (IgCepsilon), include both native sequences and sequences that have been mutated, such as, for example, sequences having mutations in the constant region that reduce effector function. A particular embodiment related to CTLA4 comprises the extracellular domain of wild type CTLA4 starting at methionine at position +1 and ending at aspartic acid at position +124, or starting at alanine at position -1 to aspartic acid at position +124; a junction amino acid residue glutamine at position +125; and an immunoglobulin portion encompassing glutamic acid at position +126 through lysine at position +357, as shown in FIG. 8. DMA encoding this CTLA4lg was deposited on May 31,1991, in the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), 10801 University Blvd., Manassas, VA 20110-2209, under the provisions of the Budapest Treaty, and has been accorded ATCC accession number ATCC 68629; P. Linsley et al., 1994, Immunity 1:793-80. A CHO cell line expressing CTLA4lg was deposited on May 31, 1991 in ATCC under identification number CRL-10762. The soluble CTLA4lg molecules produced according to the methods described herein may or may not include a signal (leader) peptide sequence. FIGS. 8 and 9 include an illustration of a signal (leader) peptide sequence. Typically, the -molecules do not include a signal peptide sequence. l_104EA29Ylg is a fusion protein that is a soluble CTLA4 mutant molecule: comprising an extracellular domain of wild type CTLA4 with amino acid changes A29Y (a tyrosine amino acid residue substituting for an alanine at position 29) and L104E (a glutamic acid amino acid residue substituting for a leucine at position +104) joined to an Ig tail. FIG. 9 illustrates L104EA29Ylg. The amino acid sequence of L104EA29Ylg comprises alanine at amino acid position -1 to lysine at amino acid position +357 as shown in FIG. 9.

L104EA29Ylg comprises a junction amino acid residue glutamine at position +125 and an Ig portion encompassing glutamic acid at position +126 through lysine at position +357. DMA encoding L104EA29Ylg was deposited on June 20, 2000, in the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) under the provisions of the Budapest Treaty, and has been accorded ATCC accession number PTA-2104. 104EA29Y-lg is described in co-pending U.S. Patent Application Serial Numbers 09/579,927, 60/287,576 and 60/214,065, and in WO/01/923337 A2, which are incorporated by reference herein in their entireties. The soluble L104EA29Ylg molecules produced by the culturing methods of this invention may or may not include a signal (leader) peptide sequence. Typically, the molecules produced according to the invention do not include a signal peptide sequence. As used herein, the term soluble refers to any molecule, or fragment thereof, not bound or attached to a cell, i.e., circulating. For example, CTLA4, B7 or CD28 can be made soluble by attaching an Ig moiety to the extracellular domain of CTLA4, B7 or CD28, respectively. Alternatively, a molecule such as CTLA4 can be rendered soluble by removing its transmembrane domain. Typically, the soluble molecules produced according to the invention do not include a signal (or leader) sequence. A soluble CTLA4 molecule refers to a non-cell-surface-bound (i.e., circulating) molecule comprising wild type CTLA4, or any portion or derivative that binds B7, including, but not limited to, soluble CTLA4 fusion proteins; soluble CTLA4 fusion proteins such as CTLA4lg fusion proteins (e.g., ATCC 68629), wherein the extracellular domain of CTLA4 is fused to an Ig moiety that is all or a portion of an Ig molecule, preferably all or a portion of an Ig constant region, such as all or a portion of IgCyl (IgCgammal), lgCy2 (lgCgamma2), IgCyS (IgCgammaS), lgCy4 lgCgamma4), IgCp. (IgCmu), IgCod (IgCalphal), lgCoc2 (lgCalpha2), lgC.5 (IgCdelta) or IgCe (IgCepsilon), rendering the fusion molecule soluble; soluble CTLA4 fusion proteins in which the extracellular domain is fused or joined with a portion of a biologically active or chemically active protein such as the papillomavirus E7 gene product (CTLA4-E7), melanoma-associated antigen p97 (CTLA4-p97) or HIV env protein (CTLA4-env gp120), as described in U.S. Patent No. 5,844,095, herein incorporated by reference in its entirety; hybrid (chimeric) fusion proteins such as CD28/CTLA4lg as described in U.S. Patent No. 5,434,131, herein incorporated by reference in its entirety; CTLA4 molecules with the transmembrane domain removed to render the protein soluble (See, e.g., M.K. Oaks et al., 2000, Cellular Immunology, 201:144-153, herein incorporated by reference in its entirety); the soluble CTLA4 mutant molecule L104EA29Ylg.. A soluble CTLA4 molecule can also be a soluble CTLA4 mutant molecule. The soluble CTLA4 molecules produced according to this invention may or may not include a signal (leader) peptide sequence. The signal peptide can be any sequence that will permit secretion of the molecule, including the signal peptide from oncostatin M (Malik et al., 1989, Molec. Cell. Biol., 9:2847-2853), or CDS (N.H. Jones et al., 1986, Nature, 323:346-349), or the signal peptide from any extracellular protein. The soluble CTLA4 molecule produced by the culturing processes of the invention can include the oncostatin M signal peptide linked at the N-terminal end of the extracellular domain of CTLA4. Typically, in the invention the molecules do not include a signal peptide sequence. CTLA4 fusion protein as used herein refers to a molecule comprising the extracellular domain of wild type CTLA4, or portion thereof that binds to B7, fused to a non-CTLA4 moiety that renders the CTLA4 molecule soluble, such as an Ig moiety. For example, a CTLA4 fusion protein can include the extracellular domain of CTLA4 fused to all or a portion of an Ig constant region. Examples of Ig constant domains (or portions thereof) that may be fused to CTLA4 include all, but are not limited to those listed hereinabove. A CTLA4 fusion protein can also be a CTLA4 mutant molecule. , As used herein, "non-Qll;A4moiety", refers to a molecule or portion thereof that does not bind CD80 and/or CP86 and does not interfere with the binding of CTLA4 to its ligand. Examples include, but are not limited to, an If moiety that is all or a portion of an Ig molecule, a portion of a biologically active or chemically active protein such as the papillomavirus E7 gene product (CTLA4-E7), melanoma-associated antigen p97 (CTLA4-p97) or HIV env protein (CTLA4-env gp120) (as described in U.S. Serial No. 5,844,095, herein incorporated by reference in its entirety). Examples of Ig moieties include all or a portion of an immunoglobulin constant domain, such as IgCyl (IgCgammal), lgOy2 (lgCgamma2), IgCyS (IgCgammaS), lgCy4 lgCgamma4), IgCjo. (IgCmu), IgCcd (IgCalphal), lgCo2 (lgCalpha2), lgC.8 (IgCdelta) or IgCe (IgCepsilon). The Ig moiety can include the hinge, CH2 and CHS domains, or the CH1, hinge, CH2 and CHS domains of the aforementioned constant regions or other constant regions. Preferably, the Ig moiety is human or monkey and includes the hinge, CH2 and CHS domains. Most preferably the Ig moiety includes the hinge, CH2 and CHS domains of human IgCyl, or is the hinge, CH2 and CHS domains of human IgCyl. In an Ig moiety, the Ig constant region or portion thereof can be mutated so as to reduce its effector functions (see, e.g., U.S. Patent Nos. 5,637,481, 5,844,095 and 5,434,131). The extracellular domain of CTLA4 refers to any portion of wild type CTLA4 that recognizes and binds B7. For example, an extracellular domain of CTLA4 comprises methionine at position +1 to aspartic acid at position +124 (FIG. 10). For example, an extracellular domain of CTLA4 comprises alanine at position -1 to aspartic acid at position +124 (FIG. 10). As used herein, the term mutation refers to a change in the nucleotide or amino acid sequence of a wild type molecule, for example, a change in the DMA and/or amino acid sequences of the wild type CTLA4 extracellular domain. A mutation in the DNA may change a codon leading to a change in the encoded amino acid sequence. A DNA change may include substitutions, deletions, insertions, alternative splicing, or truncations. An amino acid change may include substitutions, deletions, insertions, additions, truncations, or processing or cleavage errors of the protein. Alternatively, mutations in a nueleotkJe sequence may result in^a silent mutation in.the amino acid sequence,;aaisnvvelKiunderstood in the art. As is also understood, certain nucleotide codons encode the same amino acid. Examples include nucleotide codons CGU, CGG, CGC, and CGA which encode the amino acid, arginine (R); or codons GAU, and GAC which encode the amino acid, aspartic acid (D). Thus, a protein can be encoded by one or more nucleic acid molecules that differ in their specific nucleotide sequence, but still encode protein molecules having identical sequences. The mutant molecule may have one, or more than one, mutation. For guidance, the amino acid coding sequence is as follows: As used herein, a fragment or portion is any part or segment of a molecule. For CTLA4 or CD28, a fragment or portion is preferably the extracellular domain of CTLA4 or CD28, or a part or segment thereof, that recognizes and binds B7 or interferes with a B7 so that it blocks binding to CD28 and/or CTLA4. Also, as used herein, "corresponding" means sharing sequence identity. B7, as used herein, refers to any member of the B7 family of molecules including, but not limited to, B7-1 (CD80) (Freeman et al., 1989, J Immunol., 143:2714-2722, herein incorporated by reference in its entirety), B7-2 (CD86) (Freeman et al., 1993, Science, 262:909-911 .herein incorporated by reference in its entirety; Azuma et al., 1993, Nature, 366:76-79, herein incorporated by reference in its entirety) that recognizes and binds CTLA4 and/or CD28. CD28 refers to the molecule that recognizes and binds B7 as described in U.S. Serial No. 5,580,756 and .5,521,288 (herein incorporated by reference in their entireties). As used herein, 67-positive cells include any cells with one or more types of B7 molecules expressed on the cell surface. As used herein, a "derivative" is a molecule that shares sequence similarity and activity of its parent molecule. For example, a derivative of CTLA4 includes a soluble CTLA4 molecule having an amino acid sequence at least 70% similar to the extracellular domain of wildtype CTLA4, and which recognizes and binds B7 e.g. CTLA4lg or soluble CTLA4 mutant molecule L104EA29Ylg. A derivative means any change to the amino acid sequence and/or chemical quality of the amino acid e.g., amino acid analogs. As used herein, to regulate an immune response is to activate, stimulate, up-regulate, inhibit, block, reduce, attenuate, down-regulate or modify the immune response. A variety of diseases, e.g., autoimmune diseases, may be treated by regulating an immune response, e.g., by regulating functional CTLA4- and/or CD28- positive cell interactions with B7-positive cells. For example, a method of regulating ansimmune response comprises contacting .67-positive cells with a soluble CTLA4 molecule, such as those produced according to this invention, to form soluble CTLA4/B7 complexes, wherein the soluble CTLA4 molecule interferes with the reaction of an endogenous CTLA4 and/or CD28 molecule with the B7 molecule. To "block" or "inhibit" a receptor, signal or molecule, as referred to herein, means to interfere with the activation of the receptor, signal or molecule, as detected by an art-recognized test. Blockage or inhibition can be partial or total. As used herein, "blocking B7 interaction" refers to interfering with the binding of B7 to its ligands, such as CD28 and/or CTLA4, thereby obstructing T-cell and B7-positive cell interactions. Examples of agents that block B7 interactions include, but are not limited to, molecules such as an antibody (or portion thereof) that recognizes and binds to the any of CTLA4, CD28 or B7 molecules (e.g., B7-1, B7-2); a soluble form (or portion thereof) of the molecules such as soluble CTLA4; a peptide fragment or other small molecule designed to interfere with the cell signal through a CTLA4/CD28/B7-mediated interaction. In a preferred embodiment, the blocking agent is a soluble CTLA4 molecule, such as CTLA4lg (ATCC 68629) or L104EA29Ylg (ATCC PTA-2104); a soluble CD28 molecule, such as CD28lg (ATCC 68628); a soluble B7 molecule, such as B7-lg (ATCC 68627); an anti-B7 monoclonal antibody (e.g., ATCC HB-253, ATCC CRL-2223, ATCC CRL-2226, ATCC HB-301, ATCC HB-11341 and monoclonal antibodies as described in U.S. Patent No. 6,113,898 or in Yokochi et al., 1982, J. Immunol., 128(2):823-827); an anti-CTLA4 monoclonal antibody (e.g., ATCC HB-304, and monoclonal antibodies as described in references 82-83); and/or an anti-CD28 monoclonal antibody (e.g. ATCC HB 11944 and MAb 9.3, as described in Hansen et al., 1980, Immunogenetics, 10: 247-260, or Martin et al., 1984, J. din. Immunol., 4(1 ):18-22). Blocking B7 interactions can be detected by art-recognized tests such as determining reduction of immune disease (e.g., rheumatic disease) associated symptoms, by determining a reduction in T-cell/B7-cell interactions, or by determining a reduction in the interaction of B7 with CTLA4/CD28. Blockage can be partial or total. Also as used herein, an effective amount of a molecule refers to an amount that blocks the interaction of the molecule with its ligand. For example, an effective amount of a molecule that blocks the interaction of B7 with CTLA4 and/or CD28 is the amount of the molecule that, when bound to B7 molecules on B7-positive cells, inhibits B7 molecules from binding endogenous ligands such as CTLA4 and CD28. Alternatively, an effective amount of a molecule that blocks the interaction of B7 with CTLA4 and/or CD28 is the amount of the molecule that, when bound to CTLA4 and/or CD28 molecules on T cells, inhibits B7 molecules from binding endogenous ligands such as CTLA4 and CD28. The inhibition or blockage can be partial or complete. For clinical protocols, it is preferred that the Ig moiety of a fusion protein, such as CTLA4lg or mutant CTLA4lg, does not elicit a detrimental immune response in a subject. The preferred moiety is all or a portion of the Ig constant region, including human or non-human primate Ig constant regions. Examples of suitable Ig regions include IgCyl (IgCgammal), lgCy2 (lgCgamma2), IgCyS (IgCgammaS), lgCy4 lgCgamma4), IgC^i(lgCmu), IgCcd (IgCalphal), lgCoc2 (lgCalpha2), lgC.8 (IgCdelta) or IgCe (IgCepsilon), including the hinge, CH2 and CHS domains, or the CH1, hinge, CH2 and CHS domains, which are involved in effector functions such as binding to Fc receptors, complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), or antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). The Ig moiety can have one or more mutations therein, (e.g., in the CH2 domain to reduce effector functions such as CDC or ADCC) where the mutation modulates the capability of the Ig to bind its ligand by increasing or decreasing the capability of the Ig to bind to Fc receptors. For example, mutations in the Ig moiety can include changes in any or all of its cysteine residues within the hinge domain. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the cysteines at positions +130, +136, and +139 are substituted with serine. The Ig moiety can also include the proline at position +148 substituted with a serine, as shown in FIG. 8. Further, mutations in the Ig moiety can include having the leucine at position +144 substituted with phenylalanine; leucine at position +145 substituted with glutamic acid; or glycine at position +147 substituted with alanine. EXAMPLES The following examples set forth specific aspects of the invention to illustrate the invention and provide a description of the present methods for those of skill in the art. The examples should not be construed as limiting the invention, as the examples merely provide specific methodology and exemplification that are useful in the understanding and practice of the invention and its various aspects. Examples 1 and 2 as set forth below describe experiments relating to cell culture processes involving a galactose feed employed in combination with multiple temperature shifts. Examples 3-6 describe experiments relating to cell culture processes involving temperature shifts during the culture run, with no galactose feed. Examples 7-13 describe experiments relating to cell culture processes involving delayed addition of polyanionic compound in combination with galactose feed and multiple temperature shifts. EXAMPLE 1 This Example generally describes the D-galactose continuous feed culturing process of the present invention for the culturing of recombinant cells that produce the exemplified CTLA4lg fusion protein as described herein in Example 2. Cells were expanded in modified CD-CHO medium (Invitrogen, CA) containing glutamine, sodium bicarbonate, insulin, and methotrexate (Table 1) using T-75 flasks, 250, 500 and 1000-mL spinners. T-flasks and spinners were incubated at 37°C and 6% CO2. After sufficient inoculum was generated, the culture was transferred into a 5 or 50 L bioreactor with 3 or 30 L working volume, respectively, of the same medium. Initial seeding density was 200,000 viable cells/mL. The 5 L vessel was a glass reactor equipped with one marine impeller (Applikon, Foster City, CA), the 50 L vessel was a stainless steel reactor (Feldmeier, Syracuse, NY) equipped with two marine impellers. A data acquisition system using Intellution Fix32 recorded temperature, pH, and DO throughout runs. Gas flows were controlled via rotameters. Air was sparged into the reactor via a submerged frit (5 |j,m pore size) and through the reactor head space for CO2 removal. Molecular oxygen was sparged through same frit for DO control. CO2 was sparged through same frit for high side pH control. Low side pH control was realized via addition of 1 N NaOH. The culture in the bioreactor was given a daily bolus feed using modified eRDF medium (Invitrogen, CA), (Table 2), containing glucose, glutamine, insulin, TO Yeastolate (Becton Dickinson) and D-galactose in the following manner: starting one day post inoculation, a minimum of 1% culture volume was added as feeding medium; if the glucose level fell below 3 g/L, a calculated volume was added to bring the glucose level back to 3 g/L. The fermentation process had a duration of 14-21 days. Samples were taken on a daily basis from the reactor. Sample used for cell count was stained with trypan blue (Sigma, MO). Cell count and cell viability determination was performed via Hemocytometer/ Microscope. For analysis of metabolites, additional sample was centrifuged for 20 minutes at 2000 rpm (4°C) for cell separation. Supernatant was analyzed for the following parameters: liter, sialic acid, glucose, lactate, glutamine, glutamate, pH, pCO2, ammonia, and LDH. Large-scale cell cultures were conducted at 5000 L reactor scale with 4500 L working volume using stainless steel reactors (Feldmeier, NY) with and aspect ration of 3:1 equipped with three marine impellers. Inoculum culture was expanded from spinners to seed reactors and the initial seeding density at 5000-L scale was 150-200,000 viable cells/mL Experimental methods related to the large scale cultures and process controls were identical to those described for the 5 L and 50 L processes. EXAMPLE 2 This Example describes the culturing of cells producing CTLA4lg, shown as -1 to 357 or +1 to 357 in FIG. 3, (encoding DNA deposited as ATCC 68629), using several sets of experimental culture conditions for comparisons related to the end titer and end sialic acid parameters of the protein product. These results were obtained from a cell culturing method involving both a two step temperature shift process and a daily feeding regimen in which a sialic acid sustaining effective amount of D-galactose was present in the feeding medium. Improved product quality enhancement was observed. Culture conditions in the 5, 50, and 5000-L bioreactors were controlled as follows: pH at 7.0, dissolved oxygen at 40-60%, agitation at 30-50 rpm, back pressure at 5 psi (ambient pressure for 5-L glass reactors). A two-temperature shift cell culture method comprising a first temperature of 37°C, lowered to a second temperature of 34°C on day 6 and to a third temperature 32°C on day 10 was employed. Description of Experimental Sets Experimental Set I: 5-L culture with feed medium which contained no D-galactose Experimental Set II: 5-L culture with feed medium which contained 12.5 g/L of D- galactose; Experimental Set III: 50-L culture with feed medium which contained no D- galactose; Experimental Set IV: 50-L culture with feed medium which contained 3.0 g/L of D- galactose; (In Experimental Set IV, D-galactose feed was discontinued on day 10 and regular feed medium (without D-galactose) was then used from day 11 to day 16); Experimental Set V: 50-L feed culture with medium which contained 12.5 g/L of D-galactose; Experimental Set VI: 50-L feed culture with medium which contained 20.0 g/L of D-galactose; Experimental Set VII: 5000-L culture with feed medium which contained no D- galactose; and Experimental Set VIII: 5000-L culture with feed medium which contained 12.5 g/L of D-galactose. As observed from the results presented in Table 3, the use of 12.5 g/L of D-galactose in the feed medium increased the sialic acid content of the product significantly at 5, 50, and 5000-L scale compared with the controls in which no D-galactose was included in the feed. Further, the addition of 3 g/L D-galactose at 50-L scale, which was discontinued on day 10, temporarily had a positive impact on sialylation degree (Experimental Set IV; Table 3; and FIG. 1), but sialic acid levels decreased soon after day 10. The'degree of sialylation increased with a higher concentration of D-galactose (12.5 g/L) in the feed medium at 50-L scale (Experimental Set V; Table 3; FIG. 1). This finding supports a higher D-galactose feed concentration in the medium and a daily feeding regimen employing feeding medium including D-galactose. In accordance with these experiments, the addition of D-galactose did not significantly affect the cell specific productivity (i.e., titer increase), (FIG. 2). A further increase of the D-gaiactose concentration in the feed, i.e., to 20.0 g/L, had no further beneficial effects (Experimental Set VI; Table 3; FIG. 1). FIG. 3 shows the residual D-galactose concentration in the culture at a concentration of 12.5 g/L D-galactose in the feed, which was found to be optimal at the 50 L and 5000 L scales. During the production phase when the titer increased (i.e., days 6-21), the residual D-galactose concentration in the culture was required to be maintained at > 0.25 g/L. FIG. 4 illustrates the scale effect observed during the scale-up of the cell culture process to 5000 L for the production of CTLA4lg. The sialylation of the glycoprotein declined with increasing reactor scale. FIG. 5 shows the reversal of the scale effect after the addition of 12.5 g/L D-galactose into the feeding medium. The daily D-galactose feeding technique allowed for the production of large amounts of highly sialated CTLA4lg in large-scale, for example, > 50 L, e.g., 5000 L, production reactors. EXAMPLE 3 This Example relates specifically to the temperature shift cell culture processes as described herein in Examples 4-6 and provides materials and reagents employed in the temperature shift processes for the culturing of recombinant cells that produce the CTLA4lg fusion protein. 1. Cell Culture Medium The basal cell culture medium used for all phases of cell inoculum generation and for growth of cultures in bioreactors, including 5 liter (5 L) and 50 liter (50 L) production reactors, was modified CD-CHO medium containing glutamine, sodium bicarbonate, insulin and methotrexate (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA; see Table 1). The pH of the medium was adjusted to 7.0 with 1 N HCI. For feeding cells in the fed-batch process, a modified feed medium, i.e., eRDF-1 medium (Invitrogen), containing glucose, glutamine, insulin and TC Yeastolate (Becton-Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ), (Table 2), was employed. For these experiments, galactose was not present in the feeding medium. The pH of the feeding medium was adjusted to 7.0 with 1 N NaOH after the addition of all components. 2. Production Phase in Bioreactor The production bioreactor was initially operated as a batch reactor, with temperature, pressure, pH and dissolved oxygen concentration closely monitored and controlled. The condition of the culture was evaluated by measuring the viable cell density and the concentration of several key metabolites. The feeding process was initiated one day after the innoculation. The remainder of the fermentation was the conducted in fed-batch mode. Bioreactors of 5 L scale (glass reactor with one marine impeller) and 50 L scale (stainless steel reactor with two marine impellers) were used, (see Example 4). A data acquisition system (Intellution Fix 32) recorded temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen (DO) throughout runs. Gas flows were controlled via rotameters. Air was sparged into the reactor via a submerged frit (5 jum pore size) and through the reactor head space for COa removal. Molecular oxygen was sparged through same frit for DO control. CO2 was sparged through same frit as used for pH control. 3. Feeding Strategy At 24 hours post inoculation, a daily minimum of 1% of culture volume of modified eRDF-l feed medium was added into the bioreactor if the glucose concentration was > 3.0 g/L. In cases in which the glucose concentration was below 3 g/L, the volume of the daily bolus feed was calculated to bring the glucose concentration back up to 3.0 g/L. The daily feed amount was recorded on batch sheets. 4. Sampling Samples of cells were removed from the reactor on a daily basis. A sample f used for cell counting was stained with ttypan blue (Sigma, St. Louis, MO). Cell count and cell viability determination were performed via hemocytometry using a microscope. For analysis of metabolites, additional sample was centrifuged for 20 minutes at 2000 rpm (4°C) for cell separation. Supernatant was analyzed for the following parameters: titer, sialic acid, glucose, lactate, glutamine, glutamate, pH, pO2, pCO2, ammonia, and, optionally, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Additional back-up samples were frozen at -20°C. EXAMPLE 4 This Example describes the production of CTLA4lg, shown as -1 to 357 or +1 to 357 in FIG. 8, (encoding DNA deposited as ATCC 68629), from cultured CHO cells. The Example further describes a process of this invention for producing both high quantity and high quality CTLA4lg protein, involving culture runs having two- or three-step temperature shifts and total run times of 14, 21, or 28-30 days. A temperature shift (T-shift) from 37°C to 34°C occurred on day 6 (end of logarithmic growth phase) and a second T-shift from 34°C to 32°C occurred on day 10. The run was ended on day 14, day 21, or day 28, and for the two-step shift, the temperature was controlled at 32°C from the shift on day 10 until the end of the run. For the three-step shift, the temperature was controlled at 30°C from the day of the shift until the end of the run The processes described resulted in increased end titer of protein product, increased end cell viability, and volumetric productivity, compared with single temperature shift or no temperature shift runs. In accordance with the invention, the second and third T-shifts extended the run time of the standard fermentation (culturing) process to two to three weeks (or longer), while maintaining high cell viabilities. A close to linear increase of the titer of product was observed throughout the production period. CHO cells used for CTLA4lg expression were expanded in modified CD-CHO medium containing glutamine, sodium bicarbonate, insulin, and methotrexate (see Example 3) using T-75 flasks (Corning, Corning, NY) and 250 and 500 ml_ spinners (Bellco, Vineland, NJ). T-flasks and spinners were incubated at 37°C in 6% CO2. After sufficient inoculum was generated, the culture was transferred into a either a 5 L (Applikon, Foster City, CA) or a 50 L bioreactor (Feldmeier, Syracuse, NY) with 3L or SOL working volume, respectively, of the above-described medium. The initial seeding density was about 2 x 105 viable cells/mL. The 5 L vessel was a glass reactor equipped with one marine impeller (Applikon, Foster City, CA); the 50 L vessel was a stainless steel reactor (Feldmeier, Syracuse, NY) equipped with two marine impellers. A data acquisition system using Intellution Fix32 (Intellution, Foxboro, MA) recorded temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen (DO) throughout runs. Gas flows were controlled via rotameters (Cole Farmer, Vemon Hills, IL). Air was sparged into the reactor via a submerged frit (5 pm pore size) and through the reactor head space for CO2 removal. Molecular oxygen was sparged through same frit for DO control. CO2 was sparged through the same frit for high side pH control. Low side pH control was realized by addition of 1 N NaOH. Without limitation, acceptable ranges for pH were 6-9, preferably 6.8-7.2, and for osmolarity were 200-500 mOsm, preferably, 280-340 mOsm. The culture in the bioreactor was given a daily bolus feed using modified eRDF medium (Invitrogen, CA) with glucose, glutamine, insulin, and TC Yeastolate (Becton Dickinson), as described in Example 3, as follows: starting one day post inoculation, a minimum of 1% culture volume was added, or if the glucose level was below 3 g/L, a calculated volume was added to bring the glucose level back to 3g/L The fermentation process had a duration of 21 days at 5 L scale and 28 days at 50 L scale. The longer duration of the culture run at 50 L scale correlated with the added temperature shift for that run. Samples were taken on a daily basis from the reactor for analysis. For example, sample used for cell count was stained with trypan blue (Sigma, St. Louis, MO). Cell count and cell viability determination was performed using a hemocytometer and counting viable stained cells under a microscope. For analysis of metabolites, an additional sample aliquot was centrifuged for 20 minutes at 2000 rpm (4°C) to pellet the cells. The supernatant was analyzed for protein titer, sialic acid, glucose, lactate, glutamine, glutamate, pH, pC-2, pCOs, ammonia, and LDH, using techniques and protocols conventionally practiced in the art. EXAMPLES This Example describes and presents the results of comparative evaluations to assess various temperature shift culturing procedures, including the multi-step culturing methods, carried out in accordance with an aspect of the present invention. The end titer (in g/L) of glycoprotein product'was' determined, as were the end titer sialic acid content of the protein, the cell viability at the end of the runs (end cell viability) and the cell density at the end of the runs (viable end cell density). Experiments I-A, I-B and I-C; II-A, II-B and II-C; and III-A, III-B and III-C refer to the same cell culture run with the same temperature shift profile assessed at different times, i.e., for I-A, II-A, and III-A, the product and cell parameters were assessed after 14 days, for I-B, II-B and III-B after 21 days, and for I-C, II-C and III-C after 28 days. These experiments were performed in a 5 L bioreactor in which the culture conditions were controlled as follows: pH at 7.0; dissolved oxygen at 40%; agitation at 60 rpm; and initial temperature at 37°C. The data were obtained from fed-batch cell culture fermentations according to the methods of the present invention. Experiments I, II and III were designed as follows: Experiment I: the cell culture temperature was controlled at 37°C from day 0 to day 21 (no temperature shift). Experiment II: the cell culture temperature was controlled at 37°C from day 0 to day 6; and at 34°C from day 6 to day 21 (single temperature shift). Experiment Ml: the cell culture temperature was controlled at 37°C from day 0 to day 6; at 34°C from day 6 to day 10; and at 32°C from day 10 to day 21 (two-step temperature shift procedure of the present invention). Experiments IV-A and V-A show the results of product titer, end cell viability and viable end cell density assessed after a 14-day culture run with an initial (standard) production phase; Experiments IV-B and V-B show these results assessed after a 21-day culture run with an extended production phase; and Experiments IV-C and V-C show the results assessed after a 28-day culture run with a second extended production phase. Experiments IV and V were performed in a 50 L bioreactor in which the culture conditions were controlled as follows: pH at 7.0; dissolved oxygen at 40%; agitation at 30 rpm; and initial temperature at 37°C. Experiments IV and V were designed as follows: Experiment IV: the cell culture temperature was controlled at 37°C'Trom day 0 to day 6; at 34°C from day 6 to day 10; and at 32°C from day 10 to day 28 (two-step temperature shift procedure of the present invention). Experiment V: the cell culture temperature was controlled at 37°C from day 0 to day 6; at 34°C from day 6 to day 10; at 32°C from day 10 to day 14; and at 30°C from day 14 to day 28 (threerstep temperature shift procedure of the present invention). Experiments V-A, V-B and V-C refer to the same cell culture run with the same temperature shift profile assessed at different times, i.e., for V-A, the product and cell parameters were assessed after 14 days, for V-B, after 21 days, and for V-C, after 28 days. Experiments I-V represent five different culture runs as described above. As described, runs of 14 days are designated "A"; runs of 21 days are designated "B"; while runs of 28 days are designated "C". Table 4 presents the results of Experiments demonstrating the impact of different temperature shift profiles on the production of CTLA4lg by cells in culture at the 5 L reactor scale. *: "NANA" (N-amino-N-neuraminic acid) refers to sialic acid (SA). "End NANA" refers to the NANA of the product at the end of culture. Table 5 presents the results of Experiments demonstrating the impact of different temperature shift profiles on the production of CTLA4lg by cells in culture at the 50 L reactor scale. As has been demonstrated by the experiments in this Example, the multi-step temperature shift profiles were found to maintain a high cell viability throughout the culture process. Specifically, in Table 4, Experiment III-B shows that the use of the timed two-step temperature shift profile maintained a high cell viability (see also FIG. 6) throughout the 21-day culturing process (including the extended production phase), allowing the titer to reach 3.5 g/L at a high sialic acid content of 6.5 [molar ratio]. The success of two-step culturing procedure can also be evidenced in the high value of the mathematical product of 'end titer x end sialic acid'. By contrast, a culturing process involving no temperature shift (Table 4, Experiment I-B) led to an early decline in cell viability. Further, the use of a one-step temperature shift (Table 4, Experiment II-B) was found to yield a lower end titer, end sialic acid, and 'end titer x end sialic acid'- mathematical product compared with the two-step temperature shift profile and process according to this invention. In addition, the results presented in Table 5 involving cell cultures performed at a 50 L reactor scale demonstrate the advantages of the multi-step temperature shift culturing technique of this invention. The third temperature shift to 30°C was timed to take place on day 14. In particular, the benefits of a triple temperature shift on cell viability and end titer (Table 5, Experiment V-C; also FIG. 7) can be seen compared to a double temperature shift. In accordance with the present methods, the triple temperature shift further extended cell viability and thus, protein production relative to no shift or one shift methods, as can be observed from Table 5, particularly, for example, for the extended 21 and 28 day culture runs. Due to a scale-up effect, which is usual in cell culture, the titer generation at the 50 L reactor scale was found to be somewhat slower than at the 5 L scale. However, it is readily appreciated that such an effect does not detract from the advantages of the two or more temperature shift culture runs as provided by this invention. As evidenced by the results presented in Example 5, for those runs in which a temperature shift was performed on day 6, i.e., at the end of the logarithmic growth phase, far better results in end titer and cell viability were obtained, compared with control runs in the absence of a temperature shift. As observed from the results, the volumetric productivity was increased two-fold by the use of a single temperature shift. A second temperature shift on day 10 yielded a higher cell viability and further increased volumetric productivity (approximately 3-fold compared with runs with no T-shift), while the-product quality remained high, as determined by the sialic acid content of the glyeoprotein product. EXAMPLE 6 This Example presents data showing that the cell culture process comprising two downward temperature shifts according to this invention has no statistically significant effect on the amount of protein, e.g., CTLA4lg, that is produced per cell per unit time. In accordance with the multiple temperature shift cell culturing (fermentation) methods, the overall production of protein in the process is the result of more viable cells surviving until the end of the process. Because more cells survive for an extended production time, more viable cells are producing the desired protein at the end of the process. This, in turn, yields a greater amount of the desired protein product at the end of the process or culture run. Table 6 illustrates the cell specific productivity at various times in the process encompassed by the present invention. Cell specific productivity is determined by the formula as presented supra. The culture process designed for the production of CTLA4lg, other soluble CTLA4 molecules, and soluble CTLA4 mutant molecules is thus a non-growth associated process in which protein production begins on or about day 6, i.e., approximately at the start of the stationary phase, following exponential cell growth. The data presented in Table 6 relate to the experiments conducted in Example 5. Cell specific productivity in Table 6 was calculated using cell density and titer measurements, as described hereinabove. As will be appreciated by the skilled practitioner in the art, cell density measurements usually have about a 10-20% standard deviation (SD), i.e., a high SD, and are imprecise. Therefore, the determination of cell specific productivity has a corresponding 10-20% standard deviation. Thus, in view of the high SD involved in these types of calculations, the , amount of product produced per cell per day for the different run times does not differ significantly among a process having no T-shift, one T-shift, or two T-shifts. The high levels of high quality protein product produced by the newly provided cell culturing processes of this invention, and the overall increase in protein production, are attributed to the higher numbers of viable cells that survive through the entire culturing process comprising multiple downward temperature shifts. EXAMPLE 7 Example 7A This Example 7A provides materials and reagents employed in the processes of the present invention for the culturing of recombinant cells that produce the exemplified L104EA29Ylg as described herein in Examples 7B-13. 1. Cell Culture Medium The basal cell culture medium used for all phases of cell inoculum generation was modified CD-CHO medium containing glutamine, sodium bicarbonate, insulin and methotrexate (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), as exemplified in Table 6. The pH of the medium was adjusted to 7.0 with 1 N HCI. The basal cell culture medium used for growth of cultures in bioreactors, including 5 liter (5L), 10 liter (10L) and 50 liter (SOL) production reactors, was also the modified CD-CHO medium shown in Table 6, except without methotrexate. The pH of the medium was adjusted to 7.0 with 1 N HCI.In all Examples except Example 10, for feeding cells in the fed-batch process, a modified feed medium, i.e., eRDF-1 medium (Invitrogen), containing glucose, glutamine, insulin and TC Yeastolate (Becton-Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ) was employed, as shown in Table 8. The pH of the feeding medium was adjusted to 7.0 with 1 N NaOH after the addition of all components. For Example 10, the feeding medium was that described above with one modification: eRDF-1 was at a concentration of 25.2 g/L. 2. Production Phase in Bioreactor The production bioreactor was initially operated as a batch reactor, with temperature, pressure, pH and dissolved oxygen concentration closely monitored and controlled. The condition of the culture was evaluated by measuring the viable cell density and the concentration of several key metabolites. Thefeeding process was initiated one day after the inoculation. The remainder of the fermentation was the conducted in fed-batch mode. Bioreactors of 5 L scale (glass reactor with one marine impeller), 10 L scale (glass with two marine impellers) and 50 L scale (stainless steel reactor with two marine impellers) were used, (see Example 2). A data acquisition system (Intellution Fix 32) recorded temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen (DO) throughout runs. Gas flows were controlled via rotameters. Air was sparged into the reactor via a submerged frit (5 jim pore size) and through the reactor head space for CO2 removal. Molecular oxygen was sparged through same frit for DO control. CO2 was sparged through same frit as used for pH control. 3. Feeding Strategy At 24 hours post inoculation, a daily minimum of 1% of culture volume of modified eRDF-l feed medium was added .into the bioreactor if the glucose concentration was > 3.0 g/L. In cases in which the glucose concentration was below 3 g/L, the volume of the daily bolus feed was calculated to bring the glucose concentration back up to 3.0 g/L. The daily feed amount was recorded on batch sheets. 4. Sampling Samples of cells were removed from the reactor on a daily basis. A sample used for cell counting was stained with trypan blue (Sigma, St. Louis, MO). Cell count and cell viability determination were performed via hemocytornetry using a microscope, or via Cedex automatic cell counter (Innovatis AG, Bielefeld, Germany).. For analysis of metabolites, additional sample was centrifuged for 20 minutes at 2000 rpm (4°C) for cell separation. Supernatant was analyzed for the following parameters: titer, sialic acid, glucose, lactate, glutamine, glutamate, pH, p02, pCO2, ammonia, and, optionally, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Additional back-up samples were frozen at -20°C. Example 7B This Example 7B describes the production of L104EA29Ylg, shown as -1 to 357 or +1 to 357 in FIG. 9, (encoding DNA deposited with the ATCC as PTA-2104), from cultured CHO cells. This Example also describes a process of this invention involving addition of polyanionic compound, more specifically dextran sulfate, to a cell culture.' CHO cells used for L104EA29Ylg expression were expanded in modified CD-CHO medium (Invitrogen, CA) containing glutamine, sodium bicarbonate, insulin, and methotrexate using T-75 flasks and shake-flasks. T-flasks and shake-flasks were incubated at 37°C and 6% CO2. After sufficient inoculum was generated, the culture was transferred into 5 or 10L bioreactors using modified CD-CHO medium as described above, except without methotrexate. Initial seeding density was 200,000 viable cells/ml or 106 cells/mL The 5L and 10L vessels were glass reactors equipped with one and two marine impellers respectively (Applikon, CA). Gas flows were controlled via rotameters. Air was sparged into the reactor via a submerged frit (5 p.m pore size) and through the reactor head space for CO2 removal. Molecular oxygen was sparged through the same frit for DO control. CO2 was sparged through same frit for high side pH control. Low side pH control was realized via addition of 1 N NaOH or Na2CO3. The culture in the bioreactor was given a daily bolus feed using modified eRDF medium (Invitrogen, CA) with glucose, galactose, glutamine, insulin, and TC Yeastolate (Becton Dickinson) in the following manner: starting one day post inoculation, a minimum of 1% culture volume was added, or if the glucose level was below 3 g/L, a calculated volume to bring glucose back to 3 g/L. In all examples except Example 13, the temoerature was controlled at 37°C from day 0 to 6; at 34°C from day 6 to 10; at 32°C from day 10 on. The fermentation process had a typical duration of 14-19 days. Samples were taken on a daily basis from.the reactor. The sample used .for the cell count was stained with trypan blue (Sigma, MO). Cell count and cell viability determinations were performed using a Cedex automatic cell counter (Innovatis AG, Bielefeld, Germany). Supernatant was analyzed for: LEA29Y titer, glucose, lactate, glutamine, glutamate, pH, pO2, pCO2, ammonia. Dextran sulfate (sodium salt, from dextran of average molecular weight 5000 Da, Sigma, MO) was dissolved into water or into medium. The solution was sterile-filtered and was added to the reactor to a concentration of 50 mg/L. The volume of the addition constituted at most 2% of the working volume of the reactor at the time the addition took place. EXAMPLE 8 This Example describes and presents the results of a comparative study to assess the effect of addition of polyanionic compound, more specifically dextran sulfate, at a time after innoculation. 5L and 10L bioreactors were inoculated with 0.2 x 106 cells/mL of L104EA29Y-producing cells. Experiments 8-a and 8-b were designed as follows: Example 8-a: dextran sulfate was not added to the cultures ('control' cultures: 4 cultures in 5L bioreactors, 4 cultures in 10L bioreactors). Example 8-b: dextran sulfate was added to a concentration of 50 mg/L to the cultures on day 6 ('DS day 6' cultures: 2 cultures in 5L bioreactors, 1 culture in 10L bioreactor). The average viability, viable cell density, and total cell density profiles, and their standard deviations for Examples 8-a and 8-b are reported in Figure 11. In the control cultures, a plateau in viable cell density was observed between days 6 and 7, corresponding to the stationary phase. A decline in viable cell density and viability was observed after day 7 (on average) for the control cultures, corresponding to the death phase. When dextran sulfate was added to the cultures on day 6, the growth phase was extended until day 11. Viable cell density reached on average 5.2 x 106 cells/mL, versus 3.5 x 106 cells/mL for the control. Viability remained above 90% during this extended growth phase. After day 11, viable cell density and total cell density declined in a proportional fashion, indicating cell lysis, and, as a result, the viability index remained above 90% until day 15. Figure 12 is a logarithmic representation of the viable cell densities as a function of time for cultures with dextran sulfate addition and for control runs. The death rates (given by the slopes of the viable cell densities in Figure 11) differed depending on the presence or not of dextran sulfate. In the presence of dextran sulfate, death rate was approximately constant between day 12 and day 19, at a value of 0.0012 h"1. In contrast, death rate in the average of the controls was, between days 8 and 12 where it was at a maximum, 0.0024 h"1. Thus, dextran sulfate added on day 6 slowed down cell death rate during the death phase by a factor of two. Despite the beneficial effects of dextran sulfate described above, product L104EA29Ylg titer was similar with or without dextran sulfate addition (Table 9). Table 9: impact of day 6 dextran sulfate addition on product L104EA29Ylg titer on day 14. The extent of L104EA29Ylg sialylation for different runs is reported in Table 10. Given the relatively large run-to-run variability, Ll04EA29Ylg sialylation can be considered not to be significantly affected by the addition of dextran sulfate on day 6. Table 10: impact of day 6 dextran sulfate addition on product L104EA29Ylg sialylation. EXAMPLE 9 This example shows the effect of adding dextran sulfate to a cell culture that is in the death phase. A 5L bioreactor of L104EA29Ylg -producing cells was inoculated at a density of 106 cells/ml, and the death phase started on day 5. Dextran sulfate was added on day 6. The viability, viable cell density, and total cell density profile is presented in Figure 13. Addition of dextran sulfate on day 6 of such a culture could prevent the occurrence of a major decline in viable cell density up to day 17. Thus, when dextran sulfate is added during the death phase, cell death can be arrested for several days. In this run, a titer of 1.9 g/L with a NANA molar ration of 6.6 was obtained on day 14. EXAMPLE 10 This example shows the effect of adding dextran sulfate to a cell culture that is in the death phase. A 10L bioreactor was inoculated with 0.2 x 106 cells/ml of L104EA29Ylg-producing cells. In this particular example, the daily feed was of a more concentrated formulation, and as a result the onset of the death phase was •delayed until day 10 (Figure 14). Dextran sulfate was not added until day 14. The viability, viable cell density, and total cell density profile is presented in Figure 14.. Addition of dextran sulfate on day 14 allowed a stabilization of the viable cell density for a period of 4 days, after which the culture was discontinued. This example is another illustration of the arrest of cell death during the death phase upon dextran sulfate addition to the culture. EXAMPLE 11 This example shows the effect of adding dextran sulfate on day 0. The effect of delayed addition of dextran sulfate may be seen by comparing the effect seen in this experiment with the effects seen in other experiments in which addition of dextran sulfate was delayed. Two repeat 5L bioreactors were inoculated with 0.2 x 106 cells/mL of L104EA29Ylg-producing cells, and dextran sulfate was added to a concentration of 50 mg/L on the same day as the inoculation (day 0). The viability, viable cell density, and total cell density profiles are presented in Figure 15. Neither culture achieved a higher cell density than cultures devoid of dextran sulfate (Compare Figures 11 and 15). The cells entered the death phase on day 7 or 8, as opposed to day 11 when dextran sulfate is added on day 6 (Compare Figures 11 and 15). The L104EA29Ylg titers obtained on day 14 of these runs were 0.57 g/L (run #1) and 0.86 g/L (run #2), which are significantly less than the titers obtained in the control process or in the process with day 6 dextran sulfate addition (see Example 8). These results demonstrate the importance of the timing of dextran sulfate addition on the outcome of the addition. Without being bound by theory, we propose that the observed effects of dextran sulfate addition and their dependance on the timing of the addition can be explained by the binding of dextran sulfate to diverse autocrine factors, in a manner similar to the binding of pentosan polysulfate to heparin-binding growth factors (Zugmaier et al., 1992). We propose that dextran sulfate binds to these factors at their heparin-binding domain, which becomes unavailable for binding to cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans. As a result, the dextran sufate-bound factors fail to concentrate at the cell surface, which greatly reduces the probability of their binding to their receptors. The net effect is that these factors do no longer exercise their normal action on the cells. In the very-first few days after-inoculation, the cells produce certain growth factors, whose function is to signal cell growth. Dextran sulfate added on day 0 irreversibly binds to those factors as they are produced. Binding of dextran sulfate to these factors does however not greatly affect cell growth in an adverse manner, possibly because the cells are able to respond by increasing growth factor production. Later during the growth phase, production of growth factors ceases, and the cells start producing autocrine factors of a different type, whose effect at a high concentration is to signal the end of the growth phase and the onset of cell death. These factors accumulate from a low concentration on day 0 to a high concentration at a later time. At that point, these factors effectively signal the cells to stop growing and to enter the stationary and the death phases. We propose that dextran sulfate preferentially binds to these death-signaling factors, thus disabling their signaling function and allowing an extension of the growth phase. Continuous induction by these factors appears to be needed for cell death to proceed, with the result that cells that have entered the death phase can be reset into a stationary phase when death-signalling factors are disabled by dextran sulfate (Examples 9 and 10), even as late as on day 14 in culture. Conversely, dextran sulfate added on day 0, that has bound to growth factors, is still bound to these factors at the end of the growth phase, making it unavailable for binding to death-signaling molecules. Thus, extension of the growth phase and delayed onset of cell death do not occur in the case of cultures where dextran sulfate is added on day 0 (Example 11) in the same way as they do in the case where dextran sulfate is added at the end of the growth phase. The arrest of cell growth and the onset of cell death on day 11 in cultures supplemented with dextran sulfate on day 6 in Example 6 is hypothesized to result from mechanisms different from induction by dextran sulfate-binding autocrine factors. Possibly, the exhaustion of particular nutrients in the medium following 11 days of growth may be accountable for the end of the growth phase in these cultures. EXAMPLE 12 This Example compares the effect of addition of dextran sulfate at three different times during the initial growth phase. "Cultures of L104EA29Ylg-prOducing cells were inoculated at 106 cells/ml: in 5-L bioreactors. Dextran sulfate was added to the cultures to a concentration of 50 mg/L at different times. In one culture, dextran sulfate was added on day 3, in another on day 4, and in a third on day 5. The viability and viable cell density profiles are reported in Figure 16. High viable cell densities (> 107 cells/mL) were achieved in all three cases of additions (day 3, 4 or 5), but the earlier additions (day 3 or 4) did not prevent a decline in the viable cell density immediately following the growth phase. In contrast, day 5 addition stabilized the viable cell density for 4 days following the growth phase. At time points past 250 h, the viable cell density in the day 5 dextran sulfate addition culture was always higher or equal (within measuring error) than in the day 4 dextran sulfate addition culture, and the viable cell density in the day 4 dextran sulfate addition culture was always higher or equal (within measuring error) than in the day 3 dextran sulfate addition culture. Thus, it appears from this example that the optimal time for dextran sulfate addition is at the end of the initial growth phase (referring to the growth phase that would have been observed in the absence of any dextran sulfate addition). Earlier addition can extend the growth phase but will not be as effective at stabilizing the viable cell density following the dextran sulfate-induced extended growth phase, whereas later addition (during the death phase) will stabilize the viable cell density but may fail to provide a substantial increase in viable cell density (see Examples 9 and 10). Accordingly, on day 14 a titer of 2.7 g/L was obtained with day 5 dextran sulfate addition, whereas day 14 titers of 2.6 g/L were obtained with day 3 or day 4 dextran sulfate addition, and a day 14 titer of 1.9 g/L was obtained with day 6 dextran sulfate addition (in Example 9). The NANA molar ratios were 6.3, 6.6, 6.0, and 6.6 respectively in the runs mentioned above, showing that higher titers obtained with optimal timing of dextran sulfate addition came with a consistent level of sialylation. EXAMPLE 13 This example shows the effect of one and two temperature shifts in a culture producing L104EA29Ylg. The culture is also subject to delayed addition of dextran sulfate. 5L reactors were innoculated at a density of 200,000 cells/mL. ,Two, one, or no T-shifts were applied. For one temperature shifts, the temperature is shifted from 37°C to 34°C on day 6. For two temperature shifts, the temperature is shifted from 37°C to 34°C on day 6, and from 34°C to 32°C on day 10. In all "cases dextran sulfate was added on day 6. The two T-shift case is the average of three runs, and standard deviations are shown with bars. Viable cell density, viability, and titer are reported in Figures 17, 18, and 14 respectively. The results show the benefits of applying at least one temperature shift. In the case where the temperature is maintained at 37°C throughout the run, the culture enters the death phase on day 10, and the decrease in viable cell density and viability is steep. As a result, there is a clear decrease in L104EA29Ylg volumetric productivity after 12 days in culture. For culture times of 14 days and longer, it is clear that cultures that have one or two temperature shifts will outperform the constant temperature culture in terms of titer. In the case where only one temperature shift is implemented (on day 6, to 34°C), a steep decrease in viable cell density and viability is observed after day 16. The culture where a second temperature shift (on day 10, to 32°C) is implemented in addition to the first does not show as steep a decline in viable cell density and viability after day 16. At culture times past 18 days, volumetric productivity in the one T-shift culture is clearly inferior to that in the two T-shifts culture. In contrast, volumetric productivity in the culture with one T-shift is superior to that in the two T-shifts culture at culture times between day 11 and day 15. In conclusion, the first temperature shift is beneficial independently of the desired harvest time, whereas the benefit of the second temperature shift depends on the intended harvest time and the viability requirements for effective downstream processing. The absence of a second temperature shift will allow to reach at higher product titer until day 20, but for cultures that are run for longer than 20 days, the run with two temperature shifts will outperform the run with one temperature shift in terms of titer. In addition, it must be considered harvests past day 12 will contain higher amount of cell lysis products in the case of one T-shift than in the case of two T-shifts, which can complicate downstream processing. The steep decrease in viable cell density observed after day 12 in the case of the orie T-shift profile can be a conceirf.fpr product quality, as the corresponding cell death may release into the supernatant a significant load of sialidases that can decrease product sialylation.
