Shift from fetal-type to Alzheimer-type phosphorylated Tau proteins in SKNSH-SY 5Y cells treated with okadaic acid.

abstract：:Dipeptidylaminopeptidase IV, a plasma membrane-bound glycoprotein, is characterized by an intramolecular heterogeneous turnover of the protein backbone and carbohydrate chain. The faster turnover of the latter is restricted only to the outer sugars. The inner core sugars D-mannose and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine turn over ...
