Specific alteration of NCAM-mediated cell adhesion by an endoneuraminidase

A phage endoneuraminidase that specifically cleaves alpha-2, 8-linked polysialic acid has been found to be a useful probe for examining the biological role of this sugar moiety on the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM). The enzyme caused a 3.3-fold increase in the rate of NCAM-dependent aggregatio...
