Genetic deletions of NCAM and PSA impair circadian function in the mouse.

Physiology & behavior - 1 May 2001

Shen H, Watanabe M, Tomasiewicz H, Glass J D

Abstract excerpt

The adult suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) express neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) that carries polysialic acid (PSA), a carbohydrate polymer which controls plastic cell-cell interactions in neural tissues. Expression of the three major isoforms of NCAM [180 (principal PSA carrier), 140, and 120 kDa) varies with developmental and physiological state. The requirements for NCAM and PSA in circadian timekeeping...
