Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research project, we have focused on the system that the specific glycoproteins carry the specific glycans such as LewisX and HNK-1 carbohydrates, and attempted to elucidate the molecular mechanism underlying the definite glycosylation in neural stem cells. Furthermore, we have identified the molecule interacted with a specific glycan-possessing protein. The fact raises the possibility that a specific combination of glycans and their carrier proteins involved in the signaling pathways for the maintenance and differentiation of neural stem cells.
