Developmental diseases caused by impaired nucleotide sugar transporters.

Abstract excerpt

Nucleotide sugar transporters play critical roles in glycosylation of proteins, lipids and proteoglycans, which are essential for organogenesis, development, mammalian cellular immunity and pathogenicity of human pathogenic agents. Functional deficiencies of these transporters result in global defects of glycoconjugates, which in turn lead to a diversity of biochemical, physiological and pathological phenotypes....
