... clathrin ganglioside glycolipid membrane trafficking NEU3 sialidase Endocytosis is an essential process for diverse cellular functions such as nutrient uptake, cell communication, plasma membrane remodelling and internalization of lipids and receptor-bound macromolecules [ 1 , 2 ]. Several...

... Golgi localization. The individual N-glycosylation sites had different effects on ST3Gal-II enzymatic activity. Whereas the N -glycan at position Asn 211 seems to negatively influence the activity of the enzyme using both glycolipid and glycoprotein as acceptor substrates, the single N -glycan mutant...

... -acetylgalactosaminyltransferase activity when using either a glycolipid, p -nitrophenylglycoside or an N-glycan carrying one or two terminal β- N -acetylgalactosamine residues. NMR and MS in combination with glycosidase digestion and methylation analysis indicate that the cloned cDNA encodes an α1,4- N...

... in the Golgi complex, where the synthesis of gangliosides also occurs, the issue concerning the incorporation of ganglioside species into GEM is still poorly understood. In this work, using Chinese hamster ovary K1 cell clones with different glycolipid compositions, we compared the behaviour with cold Triton X...

..., separately or in combination. Our results show that both sites are glycosylated when CST is expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) or COS cells. Moreover, transfecting CST mutants lacking both N- INTRODUCTION Sulphated glycolipids are found in high concentrations in the nervous system, kidney and other...
