additional information | Rattus norvegicus | addition of alpha2,6-linked sialic acid to the Gal1,4GlcNAc sequence, the preferred ligand for galectin-1, inhibits recognition of this saccharide ligand by galectin-1. The enzyme sialylates N-glycans on CD45, a receptor tyrosine phosphatase that is a T cell receptor for galectin-1. ST6Gal I expression abrogates the reduction in CD45 tyrosine phosphatase activity that results from galectin1 binding. Sialylation of CD45 by the ST6Gal I also prevents galectin-1-induced clustering of CD45 on the T cell surface, an initial step in galectin-1 cell death. Regulation of glycoprotein sialylation may control susceptibility to cell death at specific points during T cell development and peripheral activation | ? | - |
