26. EXT Proteins in Heparan Sulfate Biosynthesis
Sammanfattning : Heparan sulfate (HS) is a long unbranched polysaccharide composed of alternating glucosamine and hexuronic (glucuronic or iduronic) acid residues. Modification by sulfate groups in various positions generates a highly heterogeneous molecule. LÄS MER
27. In Vitro Studies of the Substrate Specificities of Heparan Sulfate 2-O- and 6-O-sulfotransferases
Sammanfattning : Heparan sulfate (HS), a linear negatively charged polysaccharide located at the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix, interacts with, and thereby regulates the functions of numerous proteins. HS-protein interactions depend on the fine structure of HS, especially its sulfation pattern. LÄS MER
28. Polysaccharides in Alzheimer's disease and inflammation-associated amyloidosis
Sammanfattning : Amyloidosis is a term for diseases that share a common feature: the extracellular deposition of amyloid fibrils, that consist of a single protein prone to aggregate. Polysaccharides (glycos-aminoglycans), especially heparan sulfate, are significant components of all types of amyloid deposits. LÄS MER
29. Aspects on dermatan sulfate metabolism
Sammanfattning : The functions of proteoglycans often depend on the fine structure of the covalently attached glycosaminoglycan (GAG) side-chains. The process leading to the mature GAG is complex and involves a multitude of different enzymatic steps. LÄS MER
30. Syndecan - Regulation and Function of its Glycosaminoglycan Chains
Sammanfattning : The cell surface is an active area where extracellular molecules meet their receptors and affect the cellular fate by inducing for example cell proliferation and adhesion. Syndecans and integrins are two transmembrane molecules that have been suggested to fine-tune these activities, possibly in cooperation. Syndecans are proteoglycans, i.e. LÄS MER
