Abstract excerpt
Intercellular adhesions in F9 embryonal carcinoma cells are primarily dependent upon two types of cell adhesion molecules: uvomorulin (Um or E-cadherin), which facilitates intercellular adhesion by homophilic binding, and cell surface beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase (GalTase), which binds terminal N-acetylglucosamine residues on consociate glycoprotein substrates on adjacent cell surfaces. The variant F9 cell...
