Chondroitin sulphate sulphation motif expression in the ontogeny of the intervertebral disc

Chondroitin sulphate sulphation motif expression in the ontogeny of the intervertebral disc

Chondroitin sulphate chains on cell and extracellular matrix proteoglycans play important regulatory roles in developing systems. Specific, developmentally regulated, sulphation motifs within the chondroitin glycosaminoglycan structure may help bind, sequester or present bioactive signalling molecul...
