Molecular characterization of eukaryotic polysialyltransferase-1.

Nature - 23 Feb 1995

Eckhardt M, Mühlenhoff M, Bethe A, Koopman J, Frosch M, Gerardy-Schahn R

Abstract excerpt

Polysialic acid (PSA) is a dynamically regulated product of post-translational modification of the neural cell adhesion molecule, NCAM. Presence of the large anionic carbohydrate modulates NCAM binding properties and, by increasing the intercellular space, influences interactions between other cell surface molecules. PSA expression underlies cell type- and developmental-specific alterations and correlates with...
