Structural Control of Sugar Chains in Animal Cells.

Control of bisecting GlcNAc addition to N-linked sugar chains.

In the present study, experimental control of the formation of bisecting GlcNAc was investigated, and the competition between beta-1,4-GalT (UDP-galactose:N-acetylglucosamine beta-1, 4-galactosyltransferase) and GnT-III (UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:beta-d-mannoside beta-1, 4-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase) was examined. We isolated a beta-1,4-GalT-I single knockout human B cell clone producing mon...

Survival of Bordetella pertussis in Tissue Culture of Animal Cells

Structural study of the O-linked sugar chains of human leukocyte tyrosine phosphatase CD45.

The O-linked sugar chains of the human leukocyte cell surface glycoprotein CD45 were released as tritium-labeled oligosaccharides by beta-elimination in the presence of NaB3H4. Mono Q column chromatography revealed that they comprise neutral (64%) and acidic (36%) oligosaccharides, the latter of which were converted to neutral ones by Arthrobacter ureafaciens sialidase treatment. Structural stu...

THE SUGAR CHAINS OF y-GLUTAMYL TEANSPEPTIDASE

Structures of the sugar moieties of y-glutamyl transpeptidases purified from the kidney and the liver of rat, mouse, and cattle were studied after being chemically released as oligosaccharides. The results indicated that both organ-specific and species-specific differences exist in the sugar chains of the enzyme. Comparative studies of sugar chains of the heavy and light subunits of the rat kid...

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...
