Characterization of mouse liver sialidase and partial purification of the lysosomal sialidase.
Sialidase activity was detected in mouse liver, and was localized predominantly in the lysosomal fraction. Weak activity was also contained in the microsomal fraction, but little was detected in the cytosolic fraction. The optimum pH values of these sialidase activities were 4.0-4.5 for 4-methylumbelliferyl-α-D-N-acetylneuraminate (4-M U-NeuAc) and ...

Histochemical data on the skin mucous cells during the development of the trout [Translation from: Bollettino della Societa Italiana di Biologia Sperimentale 45, 1273-1276, 1969] [PDF]
In the skin of Salmo irideus the production of mucus is due to one type of cell specialized as a mucus cell. The histochemical research presented in this paper describes the mucous cells of Salmo irideus and demonstrates observable variation in such ...

Sialidase of Rat Liver and Kidney
Abstract Sialidase is shown to be localized in the lysosomes of rat liver and kidney. The pH optimum with sialyllactose as substrate is 4.4, and with glycoproteins is 4.0. The enzyme is not affected by many divalent metal ions, ethylenediaminetetraacetate, or p-chloromercuribenzoate, and is active against many glycoproteins and gangliosides, indicating

The Sialidase NanS Enhances Non-TcsL Mediated Cytotoxicity of Clostridium sordellii
The clostridia produce an arsenal of toxins to facilitate their survival within the host environment. TcsL is one of two major toxins produced by Clostridium sordellii, a human and animal pathogen, and is essential for disease pathogenesis of this ...

Differential lectin binding patterns in the oviductal ampulla of the horse during oestrus [PDF]
We investigated the oligosaccharide sequence of glycoconjugates, mainly sialoglycoconjugates, in the horse oviductal ampulla during oestrus by means of lectin and pre-lectin methods such as the KOH-neuraminidase procedure to remove sialic acid ...

Neuraminidase-activated microglia compromise the viability of ependymocytes [PDF]
Neuraminidase (NA) is a sialidase present in the envelope/wall of some virus/bacteria responsible for brain infections, such as flu, mumps or meningitis. The intracerebroventricular injection of NA in the rat brain provokes ependymal detachment and death,
