High impact information on LGTN

  • This unusual oligosaccharide seems responsible for the glycoprotein attachments to the cell-surface baseplate ligatin [1].
  • Retinal ligatin recognizes glycoproteins bearing oligosaccharides terminating in phosphodiester-linked glucose [2].
  • Ligatin, a filamentous protein previously found in suckling rat ileum, has been purified from plasma membranes of embryonic chick neural retina [3].
  • Subsequent dialysis against EGTA followed by sieve chromatography results in purification of the 10,000-dalton ligatin monomer [3].
  • Ligatin from embryonic chick neural retina inhibits retinal cell adhesion [4].
