Galectin-3-mediated glial crosstalk drives oligodendrocyte differentiation and (Re)myelination [PDF]
Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is the only chimeric protein in the galectin family. Gal-3 structure comprises unusual tandem repeats of proline and glycine-rich short stretches bound to a carbohydrate-recognition domain (CRD).

Monomer‐Micelle Transition of the Ganglioside GM1 and the Hydrolysis by Clostridium perfringens Neuraminidase [PDF]
The action of Clostridium perfringens neuraminidase on the ganglioside GM1 tritiated in the ceramide moiety was studied. The rates of hydrolysis of the GM1 ganglioside were determined from radioactivity in the neutral glycolipid product, which was separated from the substrate on DEAE‐Sephadex columns.In order to study the physical state of the ...

A Cholera Toxin B-subunit Variant That Binds Ganglioside GM1 but Fails to Induce Toxicity
Entry of cholera toxin (CT) into target epithelial cells and the induction of toxicity depend on CT binding to the lipid-based receptor ganglioside G(M1) and association with detergent-insoluble membrane microdomains, a function of the toxin's B-subunit. The B-subunits of CT and related Escherichia coli toxins exhibit a highly conserved exposed peptide

Association of NaV1.8 with lipid rafts in DRG sensory neurons
Voltage gated sodium channels (VGSCs) play a key role in the initiation and propagation of action potentials in neuronal cells. NaV1.8 is a Tetrodotoxin resistant VGSC expressed in nociceptors and underlies the majority of sodium currents during action
