title: [Ontogenetic expression of neurochordin D--a specific glycoprotein from human brain].
abstract: Neurochordins constitute a family of several immunologically interrelated nervous tissue glycoproteins occurring in the soluble protein fraction of the brain of all vertebrate species including human. The only exception is neurochordin D which, as it has been shown in the present study, is present in human brain but not in the brains of rats and chickens. Human neurochordin D is first detected in the brain at the age of 18 months and further persists through life. A highly purified neurochordin D preparation has been obtained by immunoaffinity chromatography combined with biochemical protein fractionation. Quantitative carbohydrate analysis revealed the presence of Gal, Man, GlcNAc, Fuc and GalNAc in the neurochordin D preparation. The sensitivity of neurochordin D to neuraminidase suggests the presence of sialic acids.
