For experiments, PC-12 cells were collected via 0.25% trypsin (Gibco) and seeded for culturing in collagen IV (Sigma-Aldrich) coated 4-chamber slides (Nunc Lab-Tek, Merck). PC-12 cells grew as small clusters…
To assay for oxidoreductase activity, the purified recombinant proteins were incubated in 100-μl reactions at 37 °C overnight with 1 mg/ml 2,7-anhydro-Neu5Ac or Neu5Ac in 20 mm sodium phosphate buffer,…
Neu5Ac (blue), 2,7-anhydro-Neu5Ac (orange), or XY intermediate (gray). B and C, superposition of the 1H,13C HSQC reference spectra of Neu5Ac (blue) and 2,7-anhydro-Neu5Ac (orange) and 1H,13C HSQC reaction mixture at…
