Hepatic binding protein: the protective role of its sialic acid residues

Hepatic binding protein: the protective role of its sialic acid residues

R J Stockert et al. Science. .

Abstract

Removal of sialic acid from a specific hepatic binding protein virtually abolishes its capacity to bind certain asialoglycoproteins. The loss of this capacity is the result of competition for the binding sites by galactosyl residues, of hepatic binding protein, that become terminal after desialylation.
