Sialic acid as a recognition motif for host-originated glycoproteins in Ixodes ricinus
SAMEK, Jakob
Glycans are found on the surface of every living cell and they are responsible for a countless number of functions. N-acetylneuraminic acid (often called sialic acid) is mostly found in vertebrate and only to a small degree in arthropods. The aim of this thesis was to find out if sialic acid is a recognition motif for the tick organism to take up and incorporate or recycle host originated proteins.
