Abstract Background Lysosomal dysfunction is central to Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis, with GBA1 representing the strongest established genetic risk factor. Numerous other genes involved in lysosomal sphingolipid, glycosphingolipid, and ceramide metabolism have been proposed as contributors to PD, highlighting the need for genetic analyses ...

Biosynthesis and intracellular transport of alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase in rat hepatoma cells.
We investigated biosynthesis, intracellular transport and release of beta-galactoside alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase in a dexamethasone-inducible rat hepatoma cell line.

Sialylmotifs of sialyltransferases.
The sialyl moiety of sialylated glycoconjugates expressed on the cell surface are increasingly recognized as the key determinants of various biological recognition events. The transfer of sialic acid to these glycoconjugates are catalyzed by sialyltransferases, a group of 15 or more Golgi enzymes.

A multifunctional sialyltransferase has been cloned from Pasteurella multocida strain P-1059 and expressed in E. coli as a truncated C-terminal His6-tagged recombinant protein (tPm0188Ph).

Human liver and human placenta both contain CMP-NeuAc:Galβ1→4GlcNAc-R α2→3- as well as α2→6-sialyltransferase activity [PDF]
A high pH anion exchange chromatographic (HPAEC) system for the separation of isomeric sialo-oligosaccharide products was developed. Employing this system, using Galβ1→4GlcNAcβ1→2Manα1→6Manβ1→4GlcNAc as a substrate, a Galβ1→4GlcNAc-R α2→3 ...

Background Previously, we found that β-galactoside α2,6-sialyltransferase (ST6Gal I), an enzyme that adds sialic acids to N-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins and is frequently overexpressed in cancer cells, is up-regulated by ionizing radiation ...

PmST2: A novel Pasteurella multocida glycolipid α2-3-sialyltransferase
Pasteurella multocida (Pm) is a multi-species pathogen that causes diseases in animals and humans. Sialyltransferase activity has been detected in multiple Pm strains and sialylation has been shown to be important for the pathogenesis of Pm.

The sialyltransferase activities of 10 human colorectal specimens were compared with those of the corresponding adjacent normal mucosa. Using asialofetuin as an acceptor we found, in tumor tissues of 9 out of 10 patients, an increased sialyltransferase ...

BACKGROUND: Glycoproteins play a critical role in the cellular activities of eukaryotes. Sialic acid is typically the outermost monosaccharide of glycolipids and glycoproteins, and is necessary for normal development.
