Application

Glycolylneuraminic acid, a component of non-human milk and colostrums, is used as a reference to analyse changes of the glycome during lactation. Glycolylneuraminic acid, a xenoantigen, is involved in antigenic reactions (antibody-mediated hyperacute rejection) during xenotransplantion.

The relative contribution of N-glycoloyl-beta-D-neuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) to total sialic acids expressed in mouse and rat liver glycoconjugates was found to be 95% and 11%, respectively. This considerable difference in sialic acid composition made these two tissues suitable models for

The rotavirus spike protein domain VP8* is essential for recognition of cell surface carbohydrate receptors, notably those incorporating N-acylneuraminic acids (members of the sialic acid family). N-Acetylneuraminic acids occur naturally in both animals and humans, whereas N-glycolylneuraminic acids are acquired

Gangliosides are glycosphingolipids found on the cell surface. They act as recognition molecules or signal modulators and regulate cell proliferation and differentiation. N-glycolylneuraminic acid (NeuGc)-containing gangliosides have been detected in some neoplasms in humans, although they are usually absent in

Human polyclonal IgG antibodies directly against the nonhuman sialic acid N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) are potential biomarkers and mechanistic contributors to cancer and other diseases associated with chronic inflammation. Using a sialoglycan microarray, we screened the binding pattern of such antibodies
