General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function overexpression of GM3 synthase in A2780 cells consistently results in elevated ganglioside (GM3, GM2 and GD1a) levels. GM3 synthase overexpressing cells have a growth rate similar to wild-type cells, but show a strongly reduced in vitro cell motility accompanied by reduced levels of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition marker alpha smooth muscle actin. Caveolin-1 is markedly upregulated in GM3 synthase overexpressing cells. Higher levels of the inactive form of c-Src are present in GM3 synthase overexpressing cells, associated with a ganglioside- and caveolin-rich detergent insoluble fraction Homo sapiens
