Mechanism of polysialic acid chain elongation in Escherichia coli K1.
Molecular microbiology - 1 Apr 1990
Steenbergen S M, Vimr E R
Abstract excerpt
Understanding the mechanisms of polysialic acid synthesis in Escherichia coli K1 requires a molecular description of the polymerase complex. Since the number of potential models explaining polysialic acid assembly would be constrained if only one sialyltransferase were required for this process,...
