AB-MED1-Basal medisinsk forskning I

Sortering av proteiner / proteoglykaner i epitelceller. Betydningen av karbohydrater og lipid-domener for apikal sortering i Golgiapparatet.

Alle virveldyr og sannsynligvis de fleste flercellede dyrearter syntetiserer proteoglykaner (PG), proteiner som modifiseres med lange, lineære glukosaminoglykankjeder (GAGs). GAG syntesen starter i det endoplasmatiske retikulum (ER), men skjer hovedsakeli g i Golgi-apparatet. Aktiverte sukkere pr...
