摘要: Publisher Summary Several laboratories have described a class of high molecular weight surface sialoglycoproteins that function in neural cell adhesion and brain development. This chapter discusses the probes recognize or synthesize polysialic acid containing α-2,8-ketosidic linkages. These been used combination with structural studies to prove presence polysialosyl carbohydrate units membranes embryonic chick rat brains; quantitate amount [ 14 C]NeuNAc incorporated specifically into α-2,8-1inked molecule (N-CAM) by CMP-NeuNAc:poly- α-2,8-sialosyl sialy ferase; show on N-CAM has direct effect mediated this is important for normal development nerve tissue. use these detect bacterial glycoconjugates. The also prokaryotic-derived polysialosyl-containing glycoprotein brain.
