Pancreatic tumor cell lines

ABSTRACT: Dr. Clausen's laboratory is interested in the structure, biosynthesis and genetic regulation of glycoconjugates, with a major focus on mucins. This laboratory is studying the glycosylation and secretion process of mucins and biological functions involving mucins. This lab is also interested in receptor modulation mediated by glycosylation or through glycosphingolipids. RNA samples from two human pancreatic cell lines. The relevance of the variable expression levels of isoforms belonging to the polypeptide GalNAc-transferase gene-family is still a puzzle to us. The polypeptide GalNAc-transferase gene family is estimated to contain 24 gene-members all participating in the initiation of mucin-type O-glycosylation. It has become apparent that each of these individual isoforms have different ti
