Genetic analysis of the heparan modification network in Caenorhabditis elegans.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 13 May 2011

Townley Robert A, Bülow Hannes E

Abstract excerpt

Heparan sulfates (HS) are highly modified sugar polymers in multicellular organisms that function in cell adhesion and cellular responses to protein signaling. Functionally distinct, cell type-dependent HS modification patterns arise as the result of a conserved network of enzymes that catalyze deacetylations, sulfations, and epimerizations in specific positions of the sugar residues. To understand the genetic...
