A procedure for the determination of activity and linkage specificity of sialidases is deseribed. The sialoglycoprotein fetuin is coated onto a microtiter plate and incubated with sialidases from different sources. Enzymatic activities and linkage specificities are then determined by a sandwich meth
A sialic acid-binding lectin, Achatinin n (ATNH) , having unique specificity towards 9-0acetylneuraminic acid, has been purified and characterized. The specificity of this lectin for O-acetylsialic acids was studied in detail, using various sialic acid derivatives and sialoglycoproteins. The potent
Vibrio cholerae neuraminidase (VCN) treatment of donor bone marrow cells results in a reduction in the number of hematopoietic colonies (CFUs) formed in the spleens of lethally irradiated mice. Treatment of marrow cells with sodium periodate under mild conditions, known to preferentially oxidize sia
