UDP- glucose: glycoprotein glucosyltransferase (UGGT) is a protein that operates as the gatekeeper for the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) quality control mechanism of glycoprotein folding. It is known that vertebrates and Caenorhabditis genomes harbor two uggt gene copies that exhibit differences
The effect of myogenic differentiation on the expression of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) activity in co-cultured spinal cord neurons was studied. ChAT activity in spinal cord cells dissociated from 14-day mouse embryos was markedly increased when co-cultured with skeletal myotubes from

In agreement with reports from other laboratories, we have shown that patients with the juvenile or late infantile forms of neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinosis (NCL) have greatly increased levels (5-fold to 20-fold) of dolichyl pyrophosphoryl oligosaccharides in their cerebral gray matter. Oligosaccharides

N-methyl-1-deoxynojirimycin (NMDN), an a-glucosidase inhibitor, reduces myocardial infarct size by reducing the glycogenolytic rate through inhibition of the alpha-1,6-glucosidase of glycogen-debranching enzyme in the heart, in addition to possessing an antihyperglycemic action by blocking alpha-1,4-glucosidase in the intestine. Ischemic preconditioning
N-methyl-1-deoxynojirimycin (MOR-14), an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, reduces the glycogenolytic rate by inhibiting the alpha-1,6-glucosidase of glycogen-debranching enzyme in the liver, in addition to possessing an antihyperglycemic action by blocking alpha-1,4-glucosidase in the intestine. Because the reduction of the glycogenolytic rate may
